Red Cat Holdings, a military innovation business incorporating robotic software and hardware to secure and support the warfighter, reveals that subsidiary Teal Drones will partner with Doodle Labs on Teal’s sUAS model for the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program.
Teal is among just 3 suppliers completing in SRR Tranche 2, which the Army has actually recommended will now be the last tranche of the SRR program. The winning supplier(s) will produce a rucksack-portable sUAS to supply squadrons with quickly deployable reconnaissance ability.
Doodle Labs produces industrial-grade cordless networking options. By incorporating Doodle Labs’ Helix Mesh Rider Radio, Teal’s SRR model will can dependably transferring thermal images, AES-256 encrypted video and other high-bandwidth information back to a ground station 3+ miles away. Mesh Rider Radio utilizes FIPS 140-3 licensed file encryption, securing this information and flight control performance even in objected to environments.
Teal’s formerly revealed innovation partners for its SRR effort consist of Teledyne FLIR and Immervision.
Teal and Doodle Labs are both licensed as “Blue UAS,” which designates makers licensed to supply equipment to the U.S. armed force. Doodle Labs established its Helix Mesh Rider Radio with sponsorship from the U.S. Department of Defense’s Defense Innovation Unit (DIU).
Helix Mesh Rider Radio utilizes Doodle Labs’ exclusive multi-band innovation to cover – in a single radio for bands M1 to M6 (1.6 GHz to 2.5 GHz) – a series of certified radio frequencies typically utilized by the U.S. armed force. The radio’s mini-OEM form element is incredibly low-SWaP (size, weight, and power).
