Problem
Current air mobility operations lack dedicated infrastructure to ensure safe and predictable landing and take‑off zones for air taxis, delivery drones, and military UAVs, leading to increased collision risk and limited situational awareness in congested or remote environments.
Solution
Bell Dancy’s Autonomous Landing and Take‑off Assistant (ALTA) delivers an autonomous infrastructure layer that converts any designated area—such as airports, vertiports, medical delivery hubs, distribution centers, or offshore platforms—into a protected airspace. The system continuously monitors aircraft trajectories, enforces dynamic safety boundaries, and provides real‑time guidance to pilots and autonomous flight controllers during the critical landing and take‑off phases. By integrating predictive analytics and automated conflict resolution, ALTA enhances situational awareness and reduces the need for manual coordination. Operators receive actionable safety metrics and alerts through a unified interface, enabling consistent compliance with airspace regulations across diverse operational contexts.
Target Audience
Primary customers are air taxi operators, commercial drone delivery services, military UAV units, and infrastructure managers of airports, vertiports, logistics hubs, and offshore facilities that require safe, automated landing and take‑off capabilities.
Features
- Autonomous airspace management that creates dynamic, geofenced protection zones for landing and take‑off operations
- Real‑time trajectory monitoring and collision avoidance using sensor fusion and predictive algorithms
- Adaptive configuration for multiple site types (airports, vertiports, medical hubs, distribution centers, offshore platforms)
- Integrated safety metrics dashboard delivering alerts, performance logs, and compliance reports
- API compatibility with existing AAM/UAS traffic management and command‑and‑control systems
- Scalable architecture that supports simultaneous coordination of multiple air taxis and drone fleets
