Introducing the Future of Helicopter Navigation: The AOV Prototype by Stittsville Aviation Services
October 2, 2023

In the fast-paced world of aviation, safety and precision are paramount. Helicopter pilots, often operating in diverse and challenging environments, require advanced tools to enhance their situational awareness and ensure the safety of their flights. Stittsville Aviation Services presents their Approach and Obstacle Visualizer (AOV) Prototype.
Unveiling the AOV Prototype:
The AOV prototype is a prototype that empowers helicopter pilots with a digital, real-time view of their surroundings, allowing them to navigate with confidence and avoid potential obstacles. What sets this AOV Prototype apart is its remarkable flexibility, accessibility, and resource efficiency.
Key Features:
Global Accessibility: The AOV Prototype leverages open source libraries and APIs, enabling pilots to utilize this technology anywhere in the world. Whether flying through bustling cityscapes, remote wilderness, or challenging terrains, our AOV Prototype provides a comprehensive view of the environment, ensuring safer flights regardless of location.
Minimal Setup: Gone are the days of complex and time-consuming installations. The AOV Prototype is designed for simplicity, requiring very little setup. Pilots can easily integrate it into their existing equipment, minimizing downtime and maximizing productivity.
Low Power Consumption: We understand the importance of conserving power in aviation. Our AOV Prototype is engineered for efficiency, utilizing minimal power and processing resources, while still prioritizing safety. This ensures that your helicopter and its equipment remain operational for longer durations, reducing maintenance and operating costs.
Minimal Hardware Requirements: In addition to low power consumption, our AOV prototype is also able to run on lower-end systems with sub-par hardware, making it useful in less developed areas that may not have access to newer equipment.

A Glimpse into the Future:
Our AOV Prototype is a shining example of what the future of helicopter navigation could look like. It demonstrates the potential of this technology, hinting at the possibilities for safer flights, increased efficiency, and global accessibility when produced on a larger scale with the proper means.
