Urban Air Mobility & Medical Drone Delivery
policy | compliance | regulatory
Urban Air Mobility involves using drones to transport goods or people above or between cities, reducing traffic, pollution, and costs. Our extensive European network of stakeholders and participation in European Medical Drone Delivery projects allow us to assist institutions and healthcare providers in establishing safe and efficient medical drone services.
U-Space
policy | compliance | regulatory
U-space, also known as Unmanned Traffic Management (UTM), is a system of services, technologies and agreements that manages air traffic control for drones. We provide both technical and legal support to national and local authorities, U-space service providers, and air navigation service providers in implementing and developing U-space airspace, as part of an ecosystem of stakeholders.
SORA
policy | compliance | regulatory
The SORA methodology, developed by JARUS and incorporated into EASA legislation, is a risk and performance-based approach for the management of unmanned aircraft systems operations. We assist operators in acquiring their operational authorisation by providing guidance and support throughout the process ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and promoting safe and efficient operations.
Software Engineering & Integration
software | technical
We develop user-friendly interfaces for pilots and air traffic controllers using languages like HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, Java, and Node.js, as well as frameworks like React and Angular. This allows for easy navigation and control, ensuring a smooth and efficient experience for users. We also have expertise in developing backend systems, including web APIs and mediation software using the .NET framework and C# language. This ensures the seamless exchange of data and communication between UAVs and ground-based systems, and enables efficient decision-making and real-time data collection and analysis.
Automation & Digitalisation
software | technical
We incorporate AI and IoT capabilities into our software solutions for intelligent decision-making and real-time data collection and analysis. IoT technology enables the unmanned aviation industry to gather vast amounts of data from multiple sources, such as UAVs, weather stations, and air traffic control systems, and then use AI algorithms to analyse and interpret this data in real-time. This allows for improved situation awareness, decision-making and collaboration. By using IoT in conjunction with the SWIM (System Wide Information Management) concept, we enable a seamless flow of information between all stakeholders in the unmanned aviation ecosystem, providing a common operational picture and enabling safer and more efficient operations.
Cyber Security in Aviation
software | technical
As manned aircraft increasingly rely on digital and connectivity solutions to operate more safely and efficiently, unmanned aircraft are entirely dependent on these technologies. This makes cyber security a critical concern for the unmanned aviation industry. We offer a range of state-of-the-art encryption methodologies that adhere to international standards and regulations, such as those set by ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization), EASA (European Union Aviation Safety Agency) and NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization). These methodologies help protect against cyber threats, ensuring the integrity and confidentiality of communications and data exchanged between unmanned aircraft and ground-based systems. Our solutions are designed to detect, prevent and respond to cyber-attacks, and we continuously monitor and update our systems to stay ahead of evolving cyber threats.
Founded in 2018, with more than 10 years of experience in the finance and air-travel sectors. 762 had major contributions to global Self-Service Machine fleet management and software distribution solutions currently deployed on more than 150k ATMs and 200 banks worldwide. In addition to the implementation of the mutually authenticated encrypted communication (SOAP over mTLS), 762 was responsible for security hardening and fulfilment of the strict penetration testing requirements (SQL injection protection, code obfuscation, DoS protection), characteristic of the finance sector. 762, has also provided software development and consulting services for banking, insurance and IoT products. Mercury Systems B.V. is now collaborating with 762 to provide the next-gen GCS-Swarm communication solutions in compliance with upcoming EU standards.
