Energy produced where the robots need it.

Solar pods with a large battery, dropped by drone, to recharge ground robots along their route. No human, no return to base.

> FP-POD V1 / CAO
> FP_SHT_03/ The problem

Robots carry the logistics. Their charging does not.

> A — LOGISTICS
80 %→ 90 % in exposed sectors

Ground robots handle up to 80 % of logistics in some Ukrainian brigades, and 90 % in the most exposed sectors.

> B — CHARGING

A human at every charge

A robot can’t swap its own batteries.

> C — EXPOSURE

Grouping up means being seen

The battlefield is transparent: grouping up to recharge exposes robots and people.

A charging network dropped along the route.

> SCROLL04 STEPS
01

A heavy drone drops a pod.

02

The pod unfolds its panel and charges itself.

03

A ground robot stops and docks to recharge, in under an hour (target).

04

The robot chains 2 to 3 pods for a full charge, then the network moves with the front.

> FP-SEC-01 · Observation

Range has a price.

A ground robot has a limited battery. To have enough left on position, it must be launched as close to the front as possible.

> FP-SEC-02 · Human cost

Soldiers bring it there.

At night, by pickup, to the launch point. Under constant drone threat.

> FP-SEC-03 · Gain

Launch further back. Expose fewer.

With pods on its route, the robot recharges on the way. The launch point moves back. Soldiers stay out of reach.

> Fewer soldiers exposed to keep robots running.

> FP_SHT_06/ What it changes
> FP-VP-02 · ENERGY

Energy is produced on site

A single drone flight places a pod designed to supply energy for weeks. No fuel or battery runs to organise.

> We deliver the capacity to produce, not the energy.

> FP-VP-03 · DISPERSION

A network that’s hard to destroy

A centralised charging station becomes a target. Cheap, dispersed pods offer no single point to strike, and each pod is expendable.

> Robots no longer need to group up.

> FP-VP-04 · RANGE 20 → 50 km

The kill zone could grow from 20 to 50 km. Pods placed along routes extend range without changing the robots’ battery.

> A manufacturer’s forecast, not an observation.

> FP-VP-05 · INTEGRATION

Build on what exists

Heavy logistics drones are already in service. In V1, the 230 V AC output lets the robot use its own charger.

> On the robot side: a docking guide.

> FP-VP-06 · MODULARITY

Modular and movable

In winter, add pods. When the front moves, redeploy them by drone.

> One variable: the number of pods. One product all year round.

> FP-VP-07 · SIZE

A compact format

Folded, the pod measures 570 × 390 × 381 mm and weighs ~15 kg. It is designed to fit the cargo bay of an existing logistics drone.

> Design dimensions, not final.

> FP-VP-08 · MARKET
~15 000UGVs delivered in 2025

There is no battery or charging standard for UGVs. The first to get a docking interface adopted can set the standard.

> Funding open to foreign start-ups: Brave1, Brave International.

> FP-VP-09 · BEYOND

Civilian uses

Disaster relief, remote sensors, aerial drones.

> Main use: charging ground robots in exposed areas.
