Sentinel SkyWatch overview
Drone surveillance & training
Sentinel SkyWatch integrations
Connections belong to this product’s deployment. Each source, device and external service needs the appropriate permission and commissioning.
Architecture and information flow
| Component | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Aircraft and controller | The operator flies using the manufacturer’s own equipment. |
| Video connection | A supported capture device or receiver exposes the feed as a camera input. |
| Sentinel SkyWatch workspace | The local browser/application organise cameras, aircraft, rules and observations. |
| Data and training | Configured local storage holds records/media; the separate practice lab simulates flying. |
Integration requirements
| Connection | Setup | Validation / limitation |
|---|---|---|
| Controller video output | Compatible receiver or capture device exposing a supported input. | This is video review, not aircraft command/control integration. |
| Visible / thermal camera | Appropriate hardware and camera type selection. | Thermal interpretation requires real thermal input and calibration. |
| Site alerts | Configured categories, thresholds and notification permissions. | Test sound and desktop notification delivery. |
| Maps and place search | Configured external imagery and search providers. | These need their network services; the practice city is procedural. |
| Practice controllers | Compatible browser gamepad, on-screen sticks or keyboard. | Test mappings, dead zones and disconnect behavior. |
Commissioning and acceptance
- The intended aircraft input opens with usable quality and latency.
- Site rules create expected reviewed alerts on representative footage.
- True thermal and pseudo-thermal views remain correctly identified.
- Status changes and captures appear in reports/storage.
- Unauthorised roles cannot change protected configuration.
- Practice landing, return-home and controller inputs pass the intended exercises.
- Backup, HTTPS and ledger checks succeed.
