The complete perception platform

Maximum survivability with no trade-offs

More coverage, less time. More detections, less bandwidth. More missions, less attrition. Our perception platform comes as a single lightweight payload to empower those who save lives to act in time, without compromise or doubt.

Introducing the perception platform

One integrated payload. Zero burden.

The complete answer to fragmented UAV sensing: a 10K high-resolution camera, onboard processing, and an AI-agnostic wrapper (IGNITE) — engineered as one system, installed as one lightweight payload.

Fly shorter missions Cover the full operational area in fewer passes.
Capture more data Every pixel at detection resolution, no zoom trade-offs.
Use less bandwidth Only intelligence leaves the drone, not raw footage.
Save more lives Faster detections, faster decisions, better outcomes.

The sensor

Two 10K perception sensors on a shared architecture. Choose the optics strategy that fits the platform and mission — both feed the same FORGE and IGNITE pipeline.

ECHO

Interchangeable optics

Best for Missions that need flexible standoff and field-swappable lenses across roles.

Canon RF mount: Field-swappable commercial off-the-shelf optics
24 mm → 300 mm: Wide-area to standoff, changed in the field
100 MP CMOS · 10K: Full-frame capture at 10,000 × 10,000 px
Global shutter: All pixels exposed at once

ROOK

Sealed · SWaP-optimised

Best for Size-, weight- and power-constrained platforms operating in harsh environments.

Purpose-built optics: Fixed lenses engineered for aerial applications
SWaP-optimised: Lowest size, weight and power in the family
Environmentally sealed: Protected against dust, moisture and vibration
100 MP CMOS · 10K: Full-frame capture at 10,000 × 10,000 px

Both sensors share the same 10K core, calibration and output — the choice is optics strategy and environmental envelope, not capability. [CONFIRM ROOK SPECS]

02 — Identify

FORGE· the brain

Save time, bandwidth, and decisions; process on the fly, send what matters.

Jetson Orin NX: 16 GB edge compute
2 TB onboard SSD: full-mission storage
160 g: at 190 × 55 × 30 mm
Every pixel processed: zero compression
Sealed enclosures, pods: mounts anywhere

03 — Act

IGNITE· the intelligence layer

Give operators exactly the intel necessary to make key split-second decisions in real time.

AI model-agnostic: your model, your container
Air-gapped + encrypted: zero Sapient access
GPU tiling + cropping: 10K handled onboard
Georef + tracking: targets held across frames
CoT output: straight into ATAK
C2-ready: existing command systems

Your IP. Your control.

Sapient has zero visibility into your models, training data, or operational output. Bring your own AI or work with a partner — IGNITE runs the same either way.

Where it works

Built for the missions that matter

Small things in large areas — in real time. Wherever the stakes are highest.

[ Visual ]

Mine detection

2 mm resolution across a 20 m corridor — detecting threats before they reach the column.

[ Visual ]

Ship tracking

Wide-area maritime surveillance fused with AIS — flagging dark vessels in real time.

[ Visual ]

Tactical recon

Complete battlefield field of view at detection resolution — 100% coverage, no zoom-switching.

[ Visual ]

Emergency rescue

Cover an entire search area in one pass — survivor coordinates output directly.

[ Visual ]

Border security

Persistent wide-area monitoring across coastlines and land borders.

Who’s already flying it

Proven where it counts

“At stratospheric altitudes, every pixel matters and every byte of bandwidth is precious. ECHO solves the fundamental challenge of high-altitude ISR — capturing enough detail across a massive area without overwhelming data links to the ground.”

“This MoU gives us a clear framework to assess how Sapient Perception’s sensor technology could complement TEKEVER’s operationally proven uncrewed systems. Wide-area perception and onboard intelligence are increasingly important to the future of ISR.”
