NAL Research & Blue Sky Network Solutions Successfully Demonstrate Situational Awareness & Video Capabilities at Arctic Warrior Experiment 2025
Deep in the rugged landscapes of Norway, a small rover makes its way through the snow. NAL Research’s SHOUT nano and QuickNav devices are attached, providing real-time position reporting while Blue Sky Network’s SkyLink® solution sits atop, enabling live video monitoring and the capacity for command and control (C2) of the vehicle. Inside a nearby building, side-by-side monitors display the video feed and the rover’s location through Blue Sky Network’s secure cloud-based portal, SkyRouter.
This demonstration was made possible by the Arctic Warrior Experiment, an event sponsored by both the Norwegian and U.S. Special Operations Commands allowing attendees to test the functionality of their products in harsh, remote environments.
Warfighter onlookers were impressed by the successful performance of NAL and Blue Sky Network’s cutting-edge satellite communications devices as they delivered uninterrupted live streaming and command & control (C2) capabilities for Rover Robotic’s Rover MITI.
“These results are a testament to the resiliency and reliability of our low size, weight, and power (SWaP) solutions,” said Eric Waters, Director of Aviation & UxS at NAL Research, who led the demo. “We look forward to continuing to push the boundaries of innovation and providing customers with a complete offering for enhanced situational awareness.”
NAL’s QuickNav device was also integrated on BlueHalo’s quadcopter to further showcase its ability to provide affordable low latency tracking, video streaming, and C2 for beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations.
When operating in isolated or uncrewed environments, NAL Research and Blue Sky Network offer a comprehensive portfolio of advanced, small form factor solutions to help users connect, track, and manage assets, and communicate from any location in the world.
