Public Safety & Defence

One clear situational picture for safety and defence.

We develop software that brings scattered sensor data together into one clear situational picture and coordinates multiple units — the decision always stays with people.

Introduction

From scattered sensor data to one clear picture

During an incident there is rarely too little information — there is too much, spread across cameras, reports and systems. Our software brings those streams together into a single picture an operator grasps at a glance.

The emphasis is on perception, coordination and decision support for people. The programme is developed within the Belgian and European legal framework, together with authorised partners.

Working domains

Where the software is deployed

Four domains where perception, coordination and autonomy come together.

  • Operators at workstations in a control room, with site camera feeds and a map of the terrain on the video wall
    01

    Coordination centre

    Real-time operational overview for teams deploying robots, sensors and autonomous systems across critical sites and risk-sensitive environments. BELTH software brings perception, status and field feedback together into one usable picture.

  • Sensor drone with a gimbal camera holding position above a fenced industrial utility site
    02

    Aerial observation

    Autonomous or assisted aerial observation for inspection, site overview and rapid assessment above industrial and critical environments. Suited to monitoring, quick reconnaissance and visual support for operational teams.

  • Inspection platform moving through the aisle of an industrial process hall lined with pipework and valves
    03

    Critical infrastructure

    Autonomous inspection and monitoring around industrial installations, technical sites, energy environments and other infrastructure where continuous situational awareness matters. The software supports safe navigation, perception and field reporting in complex technical zones.

Field support

Support in hard-to-reach, technical or risk-sensitive working environments where autonomous systems add reach, presence and mobility. Suited to inspection, observation and backing up teams on active works or incident sites.

Operational contexts

Where this lands in practice

Environments with a lot of ground to cover, limited staff and a standing need for overview.

  • Inspection platform staged on wet tarmac beside fire appliances and crews at an incident ground
    01

    Incident support

    During an incident the software builds a picture of what is happening while crews are still taking position. On-site perception and the status of deployed assets come together, so command is not steering on radio traffic alone.

  • Inspection platform on the approach lane of a container terminal, with the gate lanes and stacked containers ahead
    02

    Gates, terminals and access control

    At gates and terminals, vehicles, loads and paperwork follow each other at pace. Autonomous observation keeps a continuous record of what passes and flags anomalies without slowing the flow.

  • Patrol platform on the perimeter road of a fenced logistics yard at dusk, with parked trucks behind the fence line
    03

    Perimeter monitoring

    Rounds along fence lines, site boundaries and access roads, at night and in poor weather too. Movement in sensitive zones is detected and followed up, with fewer false alerts than fixed cameras produce on their own.

  • Sensor platform in the daylit lobby of a public building while visitors walk through the concourse
    04

    Public buildings

    Presence and observation in lobbies, corridors and public areas outside office hours. An operator can watch and follow up remotely instead of keeping someone permanently on site.

  • Patrol platform on a stadium forecourt before an event, with crowd barriers, stewards and arriving visitors
    05

    Public events and crowd environments

    Standing up temporary overview across entry zones, queues and the area around a site, then taking it down again afterwards. Stewards and security teams get eyes on the zones nobody is standing in at that moment.

Software stack

Six modules, one situational picture

From raw sensor data to a decision a person makes.

  1. 01

    Perception

    Bringing together and interpreting camera, radar and telemetry data.

  2. 02

    Mapping

    Projecting everything onto one current map of the area.

  3. 03

    Planning

    Proposing options for deploying the available units.

  4. 04

    Coordination

    Dividing tasks across multiple units and tracking execution.

  5. 05

    Operator interface

    One clear screen that gives an overview instead of alerts.

  6. 06

    Safety & audit

    Encrypted data flows and full recording of every action.

How it works

From signal to human decision

Four steps, with a person at the end of the chain.

  1. 01

    Perceive

    Sensor data and reports come in from different sources.

  2. 02

    Understand

    The software filters out noise and builds one coherent picture.

  3. 03

    Advise

    The system proposes options, with the reasoning attached.

  4. 04

    Human decision

    An operator chooses and acts; every step is recorded.

Development status

Where the project stands today

We are open about what is finished and what still lies ahead.

  1. 01
    In place

    Software architecture

    The structure from sensor fusion through to operator interface is settled.

  2. 02
    In progress

    Simulation and test environment

    We test sensor fusion and coordination on simulated scenarios.

  3. 03
    Next phase

    Integration at a system integrator

    The next phase: connecting our layer to existing operational systems.

  4. 04
    Partner wanted

    Government and research partners

    We are looking for partners with mandate, terrain and experience in this domain.

Software and system architecture in development, together with hardware and integration partners. Development takes place within the applicable Belgian and European legal framework.

Collaboration

Four ways to work together

Every track starts small and concrete.

  1. 01

    Software licence

    You license our situational awareness software.

  2. 02

    Joint development

    We develop an application together for a concrete need.

  3. 03

    Integration into existing systems

    We connect our layer to your operational environment.

  4. 04

    Pilot project

    A scoped test with a government or integration partner.
