Aeris Robotics
Autonomous aerial robotics for rapid response and field operations.
Aeris Robotics builds autonomous drone systems for security, reconnaissance, and drone-as-first-responder (DFR) workflows—giving operators immediate situational awareness when incidents happen.
Built on DroneOS, the open-source programmable drone SDK and command center on PX4 and ROS 2.
Capabilities
Operational aerial systems built for real-world response.
Aeris Robotics combines PX4 flight reliability with remote command, onboard mission execution, and operator-focused supervision.
Rapid incident dispatch
Launch an aircraft toward a reported incident within seconds, streaming live video and telemetry back to operators on the ground.
Automated patrol & inspection
Run repeatable route patrols, site inspections, and search patterns with onboard flight execution that returns home safely if links drop.
Operator command center
Monitor fleet state, camera feeds, geofences, and flight logs from a unified command interface with single-pilot control locks.
Simulation-proven workflows
Validate mission profiles and failure handling in full PX4 and Gazebo simulation before deploying to field aircraft.
Field-ready hardware
Deploy on X500-class airframes with Pixhawk flight controllers, companion compute, and cellular or VPN backhaul.
Built on DroneOS
Powered by the open-source DroneOS stack on PX4 and ROS 2, keeping flight control and mission software transparent and extensible.
Operations
From simulation to field deployment.
Every Aeris Robotics system follows the same operational pipeline: prove the mission in simulation, deploy onto hardware, and supervise from the command center.
Simulate the mission
Test site layouts, patrol routes, and dispatch workflows in PX4 SITL and Gazebo before flying hardware.
Connect the aircraft
Pair Pixhawk flight controllers with onboard companion compute connected over VPN or cellular links.
Supervise from the command center
Track live telemetry, camera streams, geofences, and post-flight reports from a central browser dashboard.
Automate repeatable tasks
Run patrol, inspection, search, and incident response jobs with one-click operator takeover or return-to-home at any time.
Status
What is working now.
- Simulation: multi-drone dispatch, patrol, inspection, search, and follow workflows running in PX4 SITL and Gazebo.
- Hardware: X500 airframe, Pixhawk flight controller, Raspberry Pi 5 companion computer, and remote command links.
- Open Foundation: built on the open-source DroneOS SDK and command center (droneos.dev).
