UxV/35: A New Approach to Lowering the Cost of Designing Drones

February 2, 2025

UxV/35 is a new standard recently adopted by the PC104 Computing Consortium to enable rapid development and manufacturing of drones, automatic vehicles, and vessels.

The standard provides an embedded computing "stackable bus" architecture where modules are assembled by "mating system boards into stacks like LEGOs™ instead of using wires, solder, and tiny screws." Examples of embedded drone computing applications that can be developed using the UxV/35 standard include flight controllers, radios, and GPS systems.

On the first episode of Season 7 of the Aerospace & Defense Technology podcast, Dom Koenig, Marketing Manager, Kairos Autonomi, explains how UxV/35 could be used to lower the cost of designing and manufacturing drones in the future.
