Perception Solutions and real-Time Situational Awareness Tools

PTZ Camera Processing

Machine Learning Intelligence for Marine EO/IR PTZ Cameras


ApolloCore™ is PTZ Camera processing software that uses machine learning to overcome the traditional challenges of marine Point Tilt Zoom Cameras. 

ApolloCore is a development tool that delivers perception capabilities to PTZ Cameras. It can be utilized in unmanned vessel control systems and to empower real-time collision avoidance information on tactical craft.

Automatic Stabilization and Ranging

ApolloCore stabilizing controller reads your vessel Attitude directly, mechanically and electronically stabilizes PTZ platform, keeps camera aligned with horizon to ensure contacts are in view even at high zoom levels, and uses native camera drivers to minimize latency.

Real time Detection and Tracking

Multiple object seeking modes for enhanced ISR and wide area surveillance.

15 Marine Object classes

Differentiate detections with 15 object classes

  • 8 COLREGS (Rule 18) vessels, floating and fixed markers, 5 specialized classes

  • Detects shoreline or horizon to isolate waterborne objects

  • Provides ML-based monocular range estimate, even at low mounting heights

Radar Fusion with Proteuscore

Radar Processing


Defense Solutions for System Integrators

ProteusCore™ is Radar processing software that uses machine learning to overcome the traditional challenges of marine Radar. 

Radar control drivers, automatic Radar tuning (Auto Focus), and object classification and tracking are included in ProteusCore and offer enhanced maritime domain awareness. 

ProteusCore is a development tool that makes Radar more capable and flexible. It can be utilized in unmanned vessel control systems and to empower real-time collision avoidance information on tactical craft.

Our software enhances your situational awareness, maximizing the efficiency of Radar returns on your UI.

ProteusCore detects, classifies, and tracks an unlimited number of objects in the Radar’s view automatically

Improve Mission effectiveness

Effective use of Radar means USV’s can see farther than relying on optical sensors alone. Fusion of Radar and optical detections means increased target validation and higher mission success rates.

ProteusCore does not require GPU processing overhead, operating efficiently on a CPU processor.

ProteusCore can be embedded in your existing hardware or using Tocaro Blue hardware.

Automated Target Classification & Tracking

Autonomous and remotely operated USV’s need precise sensors that function at a variety of ranges. 

ProteusCore gives off the shelf marine Radar intelligence by using machine learning to supplement Radar’s natural shortcomings and to amplify its benefits.

Real-Time Alerts

Dynamic environments require dynamic solutions. Real time alerts enhance situational awareness by providing actionable insights for safer, more informed navigation. ProteusCore enables easily configurable alerts, viewable from your Command and Control system.

Force Multiplication

Advanced Radar processing is an essential perception tool for managing USV swarming and force multiplication operations.

The ProteusCore configuration app allows for viewing of the ProteusCore ML pipeline, configuration of Radar, and configuration of NMEA 2000 settings.

Enhance Operational Efficiency

Operators of small tactical craft have to make extremely quick decisions. Traditional Radar displays are burdensome and inefficient to operate.

ProteusCore is the intelligence that empowers new-age Radar based collision avoidance systems, reducing the demand on the operator by offering automatic tuning and detection of targets.
