Pitapod-1 · Persistent ISR Node

Holding ground means seeing it — without being seen yourself.

A drone-emplaced, RF-silent, fiber-tethered sensor for watching a fixed position. The drone comes home. The sensor stays where you need it.

The gap we close

Today you choose between a drone that never leaves or one you spend on every mission.

Tethered hover drone

Always powered, always loud, always stuck on station. The drone is used keeping one sensor in the air.

Fiber FPV drone

A jam-proof link, but the whole drone is spent on impact — one mission, one drone.

Pitapod-1

The drone flies home and leaves a reusable sensor behind. The node is the only thing you leave on station.

The node

One node. Three swappable parts.

Configure the node on the ground for the surface and the mission, then let the drone place it.

Magnetic mounting pad for ferrous steel surfaces.
INTERFACE

Swappable pad

Operator-selected before flight to match the surface. Magnet for ferrous steel, spring barbs for tree bark, adhesive for concrete and masonry.

The Pitapod-1 node body with its spherical aiming joint and optical sensor.
CORE

Node body

Two-axis spherical joint for aiming, onboard battery, a peak-shaving supercapacitor, and an exposed power socket for optional external power.

An optical sensor head mounted on the node.
PAYLOAD

Swappable sensor

Pick the sensor for the mission — optical, acoustic, seismic, radiation, or chemical — mounted on the aiming joint.

Emplacement sequence

How it gets there.

The drone presses the node's pad against a concrete wall to attach it. Emplacement · pad to surface
  1. 01

    Carry & attach

    The drone carries the node to the mount point and presses the pad against the surface.

  2. 02

    Aim on the joint

    Props torque the node on its spherical joint while the operator centers the live feed through the fiber.

  3. 03

    Lock on release

    The spring-loaded clamp is free under tension and rigidly fixed the instant the drone lets go.

  4. 04

    Fly home

    The drone retreats, paying out fiber the whole way, then hands the line off at the watched position.

On station

Left watching. Nothing to bring home.

The operating software

The hardware is half of it.

Every node reports into one operator console and from there to the main command center: live feeds, detections, node health and battery, and the map of what you're watching. Emplace, aim, and monitor from behind cover.

  • Live feed and detections from every emplaced node
  • Node health, battery, and power state at a glance
  • One map of every watched position
An operator watches a node's feed on a rugged tablet from cover while the drone works forward.

The sensors sit at the edge. The operator stays behind cover.

Contact

Fewer people at the edge. More of them coming home.
