Regulatory Alignment & Safety

Airborne Intellisense emphasizes safety, regulatory alignment, and responsible integration of unmanned systems into existing operational environments.

System architectures and operational concepts are developed with consideration for applicable national and international unmanned aviation frameworks, including structured operational risk assessment approaches such as the Specific Operations Risk Assessment (SORA).

Technical design follows aviation-oriented engineering principles, including the use of qualified and redundant flight control systems, defined system architectures, and failure containment strategies aligned with the intended concept of operations.

Safety is addressed across the system lifecycle using established methods such as functional hazard assessment and failure mode and effects analysis (FMEA), supporting predictable and robust system behavior.

Where required, support is provided in defining approval pathways and preparing safety and regulatory documentation aligned with operational, airworthiness, spectrum, and data governance requirements.
