Teledyne FLIR Releases Prism™ Supervisor Software to Enhance Drone Autonomy

January 29, 2025 by Miriam McNabb Leave a Comment

AI-Based Software Improves Mission Safety and Performance

Teledyne FLIR OEM, a part of Teledyne Technologies Incorporated, has introduced Prism™ Supervisor, the latest addition to its Prism embedded software ecosystem. This new software integrates drone autopilot systems with AI-powered real-time observations to improve mission safety, efficiency, and performance.

Enhancing Autonomous Capabilities

Prism Supervisor minimizes operator workload by adapting autopilot functionality in real-time. It dynamically generates mission segments and flight plans, enabling UAVs to adjust their operations on the fly. For example, a drone using Prism Supervisor for a search mission can automatically circle and alert the operator upon detecting a human or potential threat.

“From behavior and mission planning to dynamically adjusting in-flight operations, Prism Supervisor represents a significant advancement for drone autonomy through AI,” said Dan Walker, Vice President of Product Management at Teledyne FLIR. “It improves operational performance via single-click missions, opening up new possibilities for UAS operation from commercial to military use cases.”

User-Friendly Mission Planning and Execution

The software simplifies drone operation with an intuitive graphical user interface (GUI) for mission planning, real-time visualization, and execution. Available for both desktop and mobile deployment, it supports Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android. The system streams and records full-frame-rate video, path visualization, and metadata while supporting collaborative behaviors and synchronized operations among multiple UAVs.

Expanding the Prism Ecosystem

Prism Supervisor is part of Teledyne FLIR’s broader Prism digital ecosystem, which focuses on AI and image processing. The software enables object detection, tracking, and computational imaging on low-power processors, improving UAS mission performance while reducing development costs.
