The hardware

One commander.
A whole swarm.

A self-flying team of drones that gives emergency services one combined live picture of a scene, including through walls, with no operator per drone. One responder commands by intent: launch, hold, explore a region, track. The swarm works out the flying.

In development · Demonstrations to come

On the operator's wrist: one common picture, never five raw feeds. The dock fuses everything the swarm senses and delivers context, knowledge and actionable intelligence. When the swarm flags a possible person, the operator confirms before tracking begins. That confirmation is what separates accountable response from indiscriminate surveillance, and it leaves an auditable record.

Autonomy that removes the operator from the loop. Sensing that removes line of sight as a constraint.

The responder

Gives one plain command, watches a single live picture, and stays in cover. No piloting, no operator per drone.

The drones

Launch from an always-ready dock, divide the task, see through walls, smoke and darkness, and report as one picture.

What changes

One responder covers what used to need a pilot per drone, and the scene is read from outside before anyone steps in.

Where the network runs out

A network that follows the work.

A tethered drone lifts a vehicle's satellite link to altitude, extending usable coverage from metres on the ground to about two kilometres across the land.

Built for farms, remote and temporary work sites, and any responder working where the network runs out.

The technology

Built for the places where everything else fails.

Emergency and disaster scenes are exactly where GPS and infrastructure fail, so the intelligence lives on each drone. No two incidents are the same: a trained policy degrades gracefully where hand-coded logic breaks.Phantom Dynamics engineering documentation, 2026. Capability figures, stated at public-release depth.

Onboard autonomy
An in-house, custom-built model runs on every drone, in real time. No cloud, no remote brain.
Training
Trained in our own simulator against endless procedurally generated cities, so it handles scenes it has never seen.
Navigation
Works with no satellite positioning, on degraded comms, with no ground station.
Sensing
Detects people and movement through interior walls, smoke and darkness, beyond 30 metres.
Comms
A self-healing mesh with a long-range fallback, and precision ranging that holds the swarm together without satellites.
Network discipline
Only compact messages cross the network: detections, tracks, status, commands. Never raw video.
Endurance
At least 30 minutes of flight, with built-in propeller guards.
It can pick up breathing through a wall.
Lose a drone, and the mesh reforms on its own.

The mission is simple: eliminate operational communication breakdown.
