Hercules™
ENHANCED SITUATIONAL AWARENESS
The Hercules™ mesh-radio resilience system was developed for the Australian Army, helping to enhance situational awareness for dispersed forces on the ground.
Utilising several AOS Group products, including Kelpie®, iWatchdog™ and C-BDI™, Hercules™ is able to monitor large expanses of land to detect threats and allow for greater coordination between patrol units and autonomous technology.
BUILDING A RESILIENT MESH radio NETWORK
Hercules™ combines a number of technologies to build its mesh radio network, helping units to fully understand each situation they find themselves in on the ground. These include MANET Links, UAV/Ground UHF Links, iWatchdog™ HF Links, and RF Spectrum Monitoring.
Key Features
Our Hercules™ system expands the capability of ground forces and protects them by identifying threats and sending out autonomous vehicles and UAVs to engage them.
It monitors a number of different channels and frequencies to create a clearer picture for army patrols, without the need for additional human resources in the field.
Resilient Mesh Radio Network
Monitors multiple channels to create a clear picture of large land areas.
Autonomous Response
Capable of autonomously deploying Kelpie® units and other unmanned technology.
Protecting Patrols
Hercules™ protects field units by providing more data for situation assessments.
Platform Independent
Open software design that can run on a variety of hardware platforms or software architectures.
