AVIX-AI

Avian Intersection · the computer-vision detection pipeline that publishes Animal-class entities directly to the Anduril Lattice catalog. Validated 19/19 HTTP 200 · grounded on ICAO Doc 9332.

Architecture

Ingest → infer → publish.

Four stages, four seconds end-to-end. The pipeline is small on purpose — every additional component is one more thing the partner has to audit.

    Camera, radar, acoustic

    Multi-sensor capture at runway and approach corridors. Frame rates and channels per sensor are normalised at the edge before reaching the inference layer — no in-aircraft hardware required.

    Detection + Re-ID

    On-edge computer vision pipeline runs detection on every frame and Re-ID tracking across frames. Trained on the AVIX dataset (Korean airfield species + global migratory profiles); model size kept small enough to run on Jetson-class hardware.

    Lattice Entity API

    Each tracked entity is mapped to a Lattice `TEMPLATE_TRACK` payload (or, since April 2026, native `platform_type: Animal` with `aliases.name: Bird`) and published with disposition `NEUTRAL`. Latency from detection to publish stays under 2 seconds.

    Allied operator surface

    Entities surface in the operator's Lattice instance alongside friendly assets and CBRN control areas. Cross-pillar correlation (e.g. AVIX-AI track ↔ CBRN-CADS hazard zone) happens in the operator's own decision interface — we are a publisher, not a UI vendor.

Deployment

Where it goes.

Three operational contexts, three doctrine frames. The pipeline is the same; the surface it publishes to is the partner's.

  1. Context

    Civilian airport

    Runway approach + departure cones

    Sensors mounted at the localiser and far-field markers. Output flows to airport ATC + airline operations. Anchored on the Muan 7C2216 incident envelope.

    FrameICAO Doc 9332 · IATA WBSAFG
  2. Context

    UAM vertiport

    Vertical-takeoff + low-altitude transit

    Dense urban airspace where bird-strike risk overlaps with building-edge turbulence. Output feeds the vertiport operator's Lattice instance and the operating eVTOL's flight management.

    FrameNASA UAM ConOps + KOCA UAM safety guidelines
  3. Context

    Military airfield

    Coalition CBRN-aware operating environment

    Co-located with CBRN-CADS hazard zones. AVIX-AI Animal-class entities and CBRN control areas share the same Lattice surface so the duty officer sees both threat layers in one decision interface.
