Nodestream™
in action

Across the battlespace, the side with the clearest picture and the fastest decisions wins. Nodestream™ keeps every layer of the remote operation connected, so commanders act on truth.

Remote operation lets operators control, monitor, and interact with uncrewed platforms without physical presence onboard or in-theatre.
This applies across Uncrewed Surface Vessels (USVs), Uncrewed Ground Vehicles (UGVs), and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). Operators command sensors, navigation, and mission payloads with full situational awareness from a safe distance.

Nodestream delivers secure, fully remote operations across land, sea, and air domains. It combines real-time situational awareness, low-latency video, and resilient bidirectional control over SATCOM or terrestrial networks. The platform aggregates onboard cameras, navigation systems, and mission PCs into optimised streams while keeping mission-critical control traffic isolated. Operators can see, hear, and control systems seamlessly across all domains, with no retraining required.
01

End-to-end remote situational awareness

Nodestream encoders aggregate multiple IP and HDMI video sources into secure, persistent, resilient, low-latency streams; including PTZ and fixed cameras, navigation instruments, and mission computers. Operators receive real-time awareness even in challenging environments because these streams optimise for bandwidth-constrained SATCOM or terrestrial links.

02

Secure, bidirectional control

Secure, dedicated TCP/UDP channels transmit mission-critical control traffic. This ensures deterministic, reliable operation while isolating critical commands from high-bandwidth video streams.

03

Transparent remote operation

Onshore, Nodestream decoders reconstruct the uncrewed system environment across operator workstations. Navigation, survey, and control PCs appear locally accessible, with USB, keyboard, mouse, and audio devices extended transparently. Operators can interact with mission systems, sensors, and communication tools exactly as they would onboard or in-theatre—no retraining required.

04

Scalable monitoring and
multi-operator support

Nodestream Live distributes selected video and sensor feeds to multiple stakeholders, supervisors, or mission observers in real time. Multiple users can monitor operations simultaneously without affecting primary control performance, supporting joint operations, ISR missions, and multi-domain coordination.

05

Distributed Remote Monitoring and Command Visibility for Defence Operations.
Maintaining real-time awareness across dispersed defence operations requires secure, centralised visibility that does not degrade mission performance. Nodestream aggregates live video and sensor feeds from multiple remote locations and delivers them to a protected command environment. Commanders and operational staff can monitor forward operating bases, maritime task groups, air detachments, and unmanned system deployments simultaneously. This supports informed decision-making, force protection, and mission assurance across land, sea, and air domains in real time.
01

Multi-Location Video and Sensor
Aggregation (Forward Edge)

At each remote site (e.g., forward base, naval platform, UAV ground station, or mobile command unit), a Nodestream Encoder consolidates IP camera feeds and mission-system outputs, including:

  • Area surveillance cameras
  • UAV, UGV, or USV video feeds
  • Tactical vehicle-mounted cameras
  • Sensor and mission-system displays

Feeds are optimised and transmitted over constrained communications links—including SATCOM, LTE, or tactical IP radio—operating at bandwidths as low as 500 kbps per stream. This ensures resilient performance even in degraded or contested network environments.

Each location operates independently while securely feeding a higher-echelon command node.

02

Centralised command and
control distribution

The secure Nodestream On-Prem Server routes all incoming video and data streams and serves as a controlled distribution hub within the command network.

  • Secure segmentation between operational units
  • Role-based access control (Full, Limited, View-Only)
  • Creation of custom “views” aggregating multiple encoders (up to 16 per view)
  • Simultaneous multi-user access without impacting field operations
  • Integration via RTSP into third-party mission or ISR software

This structure allows operational commanders to maintain oversight across multiple field locations while preserving autonomy and control at the tactical edge.

03

Structured Operational Access Control

Nodestream enforces strict role-based permissions aligned to defence command structures.

Full Access

Granted to command-level personnel and operational leadership (e.g., Task Group Commanders, Operations Officers, ISR Coordinators). Enables complete situational awareness and control of assigned systems.

View-only access

Assigned to intelligence analysts, support elements, or coalition partners requiring operational transparency without control authority.

Limited access

Provided to technical specialists, system engineers, or remote subject-matter experts for defined feeds or time windows—supporting troubleshooting, validation, and mission support without exposing the full network architecture.This structured model maintains operational security while enabling distributed collaboration.

  • Scalable Multi-Domain Deployment
  • Nodestream scales across:
  • Multiple forward operating bases
  • Naval vessels within a task group
  • UAV and unmanned system detachments
  • Mobile command vehicles
  • Joint or coalition operations

Each node feeds into a unified command visibility framework, enabling parallel monitoring of concurrent missions across theatres. Commanders can observe up to 25 simultaneous streams per server instance (supporting up to 400 field cameras), ensuring scalable ISR and operational oversight.

Operational
