Nova 2
Named by joint US and Israeli forces as the “Most Mission Capable Indoor Drone” in the world, Nova 2 has proven its value in combat by bringing service members home safely to their families.
Nova 2
Skyscrapers To Subways
Nova 2 uses state-of-the-art path planning and computer vision algorithms to autonomously navigate complex subterranean and multi-story buildings without GPS, comms or a human pilot.

Indoor Maps For Close-Quarters Combat
01
"Hostile, Bldg 55, Floor 76, Room 2"
As Nova 2 autonomously clears, people are detected and auto-populated on a map while vibration notifications alert the user. In real time, Nova 2 builds 3D multi-story maps, providing an unrivaled common operating picture of the battlefield.
02
Stay Heads Up In The Fight
Command don’t control. Nova 2 highlights door and window entry points; operator selects and Nova 2 does the rest. Draw bounding-box perimeters and task Nova 2 with pilot-free clearance. Toggle between thermal and EO/IR.
Level 5 Self-Driving Autonomy For Aircraft
Nova 2 utilizes the most advanced sensors, computing power, and software to intelligently map and search multi-story indoor buildings without a single operator input. Best in class computer vision enables Nova 2 to outperform even the best human drone pilots.
Teaming
No pre-scripted waypoints, search patterns, or maneuver. Nova 2 teams read and react off each other like their human partners. Clear right, clear left, dominate uncleared space. Flow through complex indoor-outdoor terrain including buildings and subterranean structures at machine speed. Nova 2 is human-machine teaming in the AI era.
Deploy Anywhere
Explore tree lines, over the beach, and urban terrain for threats. Inspect routes for mission viability prior to movement. Deploy from an offset, clear outdoors before moving internal.
Payloads
Deliver payloads like never before — on towers, inside — no place is out of reach for Nova 2. Top and bottom payload attachment points with connections for high-speed data interface and power enable a variety of mission sets. Remote ejection capability allows for rapid payload leave behind. Work with Shield AI to integrate your payload today.

Take it Anywhere
Each Nova 2 system ships combat-ready out of the box. Spare batteries, prop guards, and propellers are all included. Transport the system in the custom-designed Nova 2 Patrol Pack or minimalist Nova 2 Robot Case.
FUTURE CAPABILITIES
Drop Into Denied Environments
Weeks of orbits to PID in minutes. Launch from hundreds of miles away. Get beneath the clouds with Hivemind-powered, Nova sUAS. Sensor emplacement, perch and stare, or go inside.
