PixEagle AI – Modular AI Companion for Advanced Autonomy
Versatile Connectivity for Endless Possibilities
PixEagle AI is our innovative, stackable AI processing module designed to bring powerful computer vision and intelligent decision-making to drones and robotics.
Our Goal is to create a truly multi-purpose flight controller ecosystem where customers can mix-and-match the PixEagle Core with various AI modules (entry-level to high-end) and header boards tailored to their specific requirements, industry regulations, and performance needs. This modularity ensures PixEagle AI adapts to hobbyists, commercial surveyors, logistics providers, researchers, and defense applications alike — delivering scalable, future-proof AI autonomy.
The current prototype consists of three stacked boards for maximum flexibility and performance:
Bottom/Base Board: Raspberry Pi 4 Compute Module (4GB RAM, 32GB eMMC) running Ubuntu, serving as the entry-level AI brain for tasks like real-time object detection, autonomous navigation, and obstacle avoidance.
Middle Board: PixEagle AI custom board, enabling seamless integration with the Core flight controller and handling AI-specific interfaces.
Top Board: Versatile connection header board, providing expandable ports for sensors, actuators, and up to 4 high-resolution cameras (via FFC connectors) — critical for multi-camera AI applications such as 360° vision, precision mapping, and advanced perception.
Key Capabilities and Advantages:
Raspberry Pi CM4 Companion Computer (Ubuntu-compatible for AI applications)
Expandable DDR4 Connection Board (Configurable for industrial/military use)
Multiple Interfaces: Serial, I2C, SPI, CAN Bus for sensors (GPS, telemetry, TOF 360, speed/distance sensors)
Dual HDMI Ports – Easy local debugging
3x USB Ports,
Upgradable to CM5 – Future-proof for evolving AI demands
Supports 4 cameras for robust image processing (object detection, collision avoidance, SLAM, etc.) — with plans for future upgrades to Raspberry Pi 5 or NVIDIA Jetson Nano/Orin modules capable of handling 8+ high-resolution cameras for even more demanding AI workloads.
Modular and configurable design: The top header board can be customized for different standards and regulations — e.g., hobby-grade (cost-effective), industrial (robust interfaces), or military-grade (with anti-jamming, EMP/high-power microwave protection, and enhanced shielding).
Runs our custom AI Ground Station application for intuitive control, monitoring, and mission planning directly from the onboard AI module — no constant manual intervention required.
PixEagle Core forms the rock-solid heart of the PixEagle system — a high-performance PX4-compatible flight controller board designed for ultimate stability, redundancy, and reliability in demanding environments. Built around the STM32H743VIT6 (450MHz), this system ensures real-time stabilization can deliver professional-grade flight control while incorporating
key enhancements:
Dual redundant IMUs (accelerometers/gyroscopes) and dual pressure sensors (barometers) for fault-tolerant operation — ensuring continued safe flight even in the event of a single sensor failure.
High-speed processing with ample flash/RAM for complex PX4 algorithms, sensor fusion, and real-time stabilization.
Standard PX4 interfaces: Multiple PWM outputs, serial ports, dual CAN Bus, I2C, SPI, and support for essential peripherals (GPS, telemetry, power modules, etc.).
Compact size(82x50 mm), robust layout optimized for integration with PixEagle AI modules or standalone use in traditional setups.
Open-source — Fully compatible with the open-source PX4 firmware stack, allowing full transparency, community contributions, custom modifications, and easy integration with tools like QGroundControl.
