Technology
Stratos Kontrol AI is building the navigation layer for autonomous flight. SKAI maps flight corridors once and gives drones an onboard map they can navigate from, so they can fly a planned route on their own — without depending on external signals like GNSS.
The SKAI Lifecycle
High-Fidelity Mapping
A corridor is surveyed once with precision equipment to capture an exact, detailed record of the route.
Map Compilation
The survey is processed into a compact, optimized map designed for real-time onboard matching.
Corridor Definition
The flight path is locked in advance, from a known start point to a defined end point, so the drone follows a set route rather than exploring dynamically.
Pre-Flight Loading
Before takeoff, the drone loads the specific map package for its designated corridor.
In-Flight Localization
Throughout the flight, the drone continuously compares live sensor data against the onboard map to determine exactly where it is and stay within corridor bounds.
Precision Arrival
The drone follows the corridor to its destination, arriving in a known, stable state ready for its application — whether that's a delivery or an inspection.
Map Once
Reused for Every Mission
Fly Independent
No Reliance on External Signals
Stay Resilient
Designed to Resist Loss & Spoofing
What
SKAI
Enables
Autonomous flight over populated areas
Delivery and inspection missions along a set route
Reliable operation where GNSS is weak or unavailable — dense urban canyons, near structures, indoors
Predictable, repeatable flight behavior across every mission
A stronger, more defensible safety case for regulators
A clear path toward certification for operations not permitted today
The SKAI Advantage
Independence from External Signals
Missions are completed from the onboard map, so the drone isn't dependent on GNSS being available when it's weak, lost, or denied.
Built for Complex Environments
Engineered for environments where GNSS is degraded or unreliable — between tall buildings, close to structures, and indoors.
Resistant to Spoofing
Because positioning doesn't come from an external broadcast, there's no signal to jam or imitate as a way to mislead the aircraft.
A Clear Basis for Oversight
Every flight is tied to a known, pre-validated corridor and plan, supporting review and accountability.
