Polaris one is an autonomous sky observation system, designed for continuous detection, classification and georeferencing of unknown aerial phenomena (UAP) through high-precision sensors and edge AI computing.
Our goal is not to “search for UFOs”, but to scientifically record unexplained phenomena in an objective, measurable and verifiable manner.
The platform integrates
180° visual monitoring,
Real-time analysis via neural networks,
Automatic object classification (birds, aircraft, drones, unidentified),
Precise timed georeferencing (GNSS),
Local storage and sending of data to a research backend.
System Architecture
Optical Capture Unit (OCU) Industrial grade Fisheye camera, 12 MP, 0.001 lux sensitivity, 180° lens. Provides continuous H.265/RTSP streaming.
Telemetry & Timing Module (TTM) GNSS receiver with PPS (Pulse Per Second) output for sub-millisecond time synchronization and geolocation. Optionally connected to a local weather sensor (T, RH, Wind).
Data Interface Layer (DIL) for storing events in JSON + MP4 structure, metadata export and REST API to a central data collector.
Data Flow
Adaptive background removal.
Detection of moving objects based on brightness and speed.
Tracking items:
Multiple object tracking (Deep SORT).
Velocity and acceleration vector estimation.
CNN classifier trained on UAP-like, drones, aircraft datasets.
Calculation of confidence score per category.
Objects with unusual trajectories/velocities → “flagged events”.
Create event bundle (video clip + JSON metadata).
Data recording and synchronization
Local storage (SSD).
Optional sending to cloud via MQTT/HTTPS for central analysis.
Pilot installations in various regions as part of beta testing

Field Coverage
The surfaces are matte or translucent, to minimize reflections and ghosting on the lens.
Accessibility
Internal compartments separate the computing unit, sensors and power supply for optimal thermal flow.
Environmental Resilience
The geometry of the base and casing is designed to withstand external conditions (wind, thermal changes, UV radiation).
The simplicity of the lines facilitates sealing (IP65+) and thermal control through passive openings or heat sinks.
