Shatakshi dual EO/IR prototype — in-house build, undergoing calibration

two configurations including Stereo-Vision Detection on rotating platform with Live Geo-Coordinates and camera array integrated with PTZ camera and Kill platform

first configuration consists of The dual-camera stereo-vision rig triangulates detected aerial objects in real time, outputting live distance and GPS coordinates — not just a bounding box. Every detection streams a direction vector at 15 Hz to drive pan-tilt platform tracking automatically.

The second config ships with a camera array on a fixed platform with long range detection and PTZ camera for locking on to a target, this system integrates with a directed Kill system on a pan-tilt platform

This is the same sensor logic validated in the field: the screenshot below is an actual detection run, not a simulation.

Field-Tested, Not Just Lab-Tested

Shatakshi has been built and field-tested with C3iHUB, IIT Kanpur, and Army units, real outdoor conditions, real Army personnel, real validation. Patent filing under process on the core detection architecture.

Anti-Drone Simulator

Physics-true VR training —
the only trainer with detection in the loop.

Global VR trainers use gamified proxies. SkyAI trains operators on the exact same sensor logic they will field — real RF, acoustic, and optical sensor models, continuously calibrated with data from deployed Shatakshi units.

Immersive VR Simulation

Photorealistic airports, urban, and critical-infrastructure environments on Unreal Engine 5. Meta and Varjo headsets. Multi-operator network mode.

Detection Engine

RF, acoustic, and optical sensor models mirroring real hardware — continuously calibrated with data from deployed Shatakshi units.

Physics Engine

Aerodynamics, propwash, battery drain, wind shear, thermals, RF interference, and GPS spoofing modelled to military-grade fidelity.

AI Threat Scenarios

Adaptive swarms of up to 50 drones, stealth profiles, and electronic warfare. No-code authoring with versioned scenario libraries.

Evaluation Stack

Offline Monte Carlo validation of detection models, plus a live KPI engine: time-to-detect, false positives, miss rate, session scoring.

Hardware-in-the-Loop

API integration with RF and EO/IR scanners for hybrid live-VR exercises. Cloud-deployable and air-gap ready for classified sites.

One platform. Complete readiness. Zero live-drone risk.
