Why own all three layers.
The thesis
Autonomy compounds when you own the hardware.
Autonomy is usually sold as software bolted onto someone else's airframe, someone else's flight controller, someone else's battery. Every seam is a place the system fails in ways nobody fully understands.
We take the opposite bet: own the perception stack, the flight electronics, and the power system as one design. When the whole platform is yours, every improvement in one layer makes the others better, and every failure has one team that can actually fix it.
Why indoors first
Start where GPS ends.
Indoor, GPS-denied environments are the hardest place to navigate and the clearest place to prove real autonomy. If the drone can hold its position with no external signal, in a cluttered aisle, on a schedule — that capability generalises outward, not the other way around.
Where it goes
Beyond drones.
The same stack — perception, control, safe autonomy, owned electronics — is the foundation for robotics beyond drones in controlled environments. Drones are the first vehicle, not the last.
