Hyperever's Proteo canine robot entrusts its video transmission to VITEC encoders

The MGW Pico+ Tough and MGW Diamond Tough encoders VITEC They constitute a backbone of the video dynamics of the Proteo canine robot. (Hyperever), a solution aimed at defense contexts, security and critical infrastructure.

As the earth systems unmanned vehicles assume increasingly complex functions in defense operations, security and critical infrastructure, The ability to stream high-quality video in real time has become crucial. The quadruped canine robot Protection is designed to operate in complex and demanding environments, being compatible with applications ranging from ISR y deactivation of explosive devices until remote tactical operations. Hyperever's solution can traverse difficult terrain autonomously or semi-autonomous, carrying payloads of up to approximately 35 kg, with an autonomy of up to six hours and reaching speeds of about 12 km/h.

Hyperever needed a video solution capable of delivering images with broadcast quality and ultra-low latency, even in limited or conflicting network environments; a compact and rugged encoder with a profile reduced SWaP, Capable of securely streaming high-quality video and metadata from the robodog directly to existing ISR and C2 architectures. After studying the market, the company decided to bet on encoders MGW Pico+ Tough y MGW Diamond Tough by VITEC.

Both solutions allow the robodog becomes a “tactical node" of video streaming, securely sending video directly from deployed assets to command centers and field operatives. Hardware-based encoders support compression HEVC y H.264, allowing you to stream video HD and 4K high-quality products efficiently through tactical networks. In addition, The system provides a ultra low latency and processing support KLV y STANAG.

Ghassan Dadokh, senior business development director (security and defense) of VITEC, highlights “decades of experience” in delivering low-latency video in the “most demanding” environments: “This project demonstrates how that experience is transferred to autonomous robotics. Proteo becomes much more than a mobile platform when it can stream high-quality, secure video and metadata directly to existing ISR architectures, turning the robot dog into a true advanced recognition node”.
