AV and Taiwan's Ubiqconn Sign MOU to Integrate Kinesis™ Mission Management Software into Rugged Controllers
U.S. drone command-and-control software firm AV has signed a Memorandum of Understanding with Taiwan-based Ubiqconn to integrate AV's Kinesis™ mission management software into Ubiqconn's rugged controllers. The partnership aims to build a scalable universal controller ecosystem supporting Taiwan's autonomous UAS programs, targeting interoperability across tens of thousands of drones while reducing training and maintenance costs.
Highlights
- AV and Taiwan's Ubiqconn signed an MOU to integrate AV's Kinesis™ mission management software into Ubiqconn's rugged controllers.
- The partnership aims to achieve interoperability across tens of thousands of drones under a single unified control standard.
- AV's globally combat-validated AV_Halo™ COMMAND C2 software will be combined with Ubiqconn's industrial and defense-grade rugged hardware.
- The deal is expected to lower training and maintenance costs through standardized interfaces and software for Taiwan's UAS programs.
- The collaboration marks a strategic move by an international drone software firm to enter Taiwan's defense technology supply chain.
AV and Taiwan's Ubiqconn Partner to Advance Domestic Drone Command-and-Control Systems
U.S. drone command-and-control software company AV has announced the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Taiwan technology manufacturer Ubiqconn. Under the agreement, the two companies will jointly integrate AV's Kinesis™ mission management software into Ubiqconn's rugged controllers.
Core Objectives
The partnership is designed to establish a scalable universal controller ecosystem for Taiwan's autonomous unmanned aircraft system (UAS) programs. It will combine AV's globally combat-validated AV_Halo™ COMMAND command-and-control (C2) software with Taiwan's rapidly expanding drone industry infrastructure.
Three Key Benefits
According to the joint announcement, the collaboration is expected to deliver three primary benefits:
- Interoperability across tens of thousands of drones: Establishing a unified control standard that enables drones from different manufacturers and of different types to operate collaboratively on a single platform.
- Reduced training and maintenance burden: Standardized interfaces and software will lower the operator learning curve and simplify logistics and maintenance complexity.
- A new standard for mission-ready networked UAS: Deploying networked drone systems at scale to enhance overall operational and mission effectiveness.
Industry Significance
AV's Kinesis™ software platform is recognized for its mission planning, real-time command-and-control, and multi-aircraft coordination capabilities. Ubiqconn, meanwhile, specializes in the research and manufacturing of industrial- and defense-grade rugged computers and controllers. Their combination is poised to become a significant milestone in Taiwan's push toward domestic drone production and systems integration, and also reflects the strategic intent of leading international drone software firms to position themselves within Taiwan's defense technology supply chain.
