OPENSIGHT Software Development Kit
A software suite for building custom mission planning, execution and debriefing systems on top of geospatial data. It processes real-time feeds from electro-optical, infrared, hyperspectral, radar, LIDAR and SONAR sensors, and interfaces with NATO systems through built-in STANAG and MIL-STD support. The SDK includes MAP CREATOR, a no-code tool for turning raw geospatial data into 3D map tiles, and an Enhanced Reality System module for augmented reality and video enhancement such as fog suppression and super resolution.
OPENSIGHT Automatic Target Recognition
A deep learning tool for detecting, classifying and identifying targets from video and imagery captured by electro-optical sensors. It runs on GPU or CPU for real-time inference and supports active learning, so operators can keep training the models with new data gathered during operations.
OPENSIGHT Mission Console
An augmented reality console for airborne payload operators that overlays geospatial and sensor information directly onto video feeds, removing the need to switch to a separate moving map. It processes multiple high-resolution video streams at once and includes automatic target detection tuned for maritime and airborne threats.
OPENSIGHT Analyst Console
A ground-based console for planning missions, supervising them in real time and debriefing afterwards. A single operator can monitor multiple STANAG 4609 video streams from different missions at once, tag events and video, and generate reports once the mission ends.
OPENSIGHT Underwater Optronic Mast Console
A console for processing video from submarine optronic masts, fusing visible and infrared feeds and applying automatic target recognition to reduce crew workload. It also supports post-mission processing of previously acquired sensor data for further intelligence analysis.
OPENSIGHT Cloud Computing
A cloud portal that ingests airborne, satellite and field sensor data to detect targets and track changes over time, producing a shared common operational picture. FlySight has applied it to uses including power line inspection, water leak detection and infrastructure monitoring.
About
FlySight is an Italian defence software company based in Livorno, with a branch office in Turin. It was founded in 2020 as a controlled company within the Flyby Group, set up to focus the group's remote sensing and data analytics expertise on the defence and security sector. The team designs and develops software for C4ISR systems (command, control, computers and communications for intelligence, surveillance and reconnaissance).
