Autonomous Strike Navigation System
GPS-denied autonomous navigation for UAV deep strike operations.
Wi-Fi fingerprinting. Optical terrain matching. Signal homing.
Corvus Claws is an autonomous navigation and terminal guidance system for UAVs operating in GPS-denied, jammed, and spoofed environments.
Before flight, satellite imagery and Wi-Fi environment maps for the mission corridor are loaded into the onboard computer. In-flight, a downward-facing camera continuously matches terrain against stored images, while the RF sensor cross-references detected Wi-Fi access points against the pre-loaded fingerprint database.
For kamikaze operations, the last-mile terminal phase uses Wi-Fi signal strength homing — as the drone approaches the target, signal intensity increases, providing passive, jam-resistant guidance to the objective.
Camera vs satellite imagery
Pre-mapped corridor database
Last-mile RSSI guidance
The raven navigates through a pre-mapped Wi-Fi corridor, cross-referencing signals from access points on both sides. When it deviates outside the corridor boundary, the system detects the breach and recalculates trajectory to return — all without GPS.
Corvus Wings is our global wireless intelligence platform — a network of scanner devices that has already catalogued over 5 billion Wi-Fi and Bluetooth devices worldwide. It continuously maps the electromagnetic landscape across the planet.
Wings captures MAC addresses, SSIDs, signal strengths, channel information, and Bluetooth device identifiers — building a massive, continuously updated RF fingerprint database that powers the navigation system for Corvus Claws.
Before each mission, the relevant corridor data is extracted from the Wings database and uploaded to the UAV — giving it a complete picture of the electromagnetic landscape along its flight path.
Satellite imagery and Wi-Fi corridor database from Corvus Wings loaded to UAV onboard computer before launch.
Camera correlates terrain against stored satellite images. RF sensor matches Wi-Fi fingerprints along the corridor. < 50m CEP.
Wi-Fi signal intensity increases with proximity. Drone follows RSSI gradient directly to impact. < 0.5m CEP.
