Predator

Predator is the single brain for an autonomous DJI drone dock and your Ubiquiti UniFi Protect cameras. One live map in your platform shows every camera and the drone — click a point to fly the drone there and stream its video, or pull up any fixed camera, with nothing to know about MQTT, RTMP, DJI or UniFi protocols.

It's a true two-way command bridge: clean signed data flows out to your platform while commands flow back in, so the air and ground sensors cue each other automatically — slew a camera to a drone detection, scramble the drone on a camera alarm, light up an intruder, and fuse every sensor into one tracked incident.

Features

• Map command & control — click a point on the 3D map to send the drone there and stream its video; pull up any UniFi camera the same way
• Live 3D map & video wall — the drone, every camera, flight orbits, live tracks and alert zones on a 3D terrain-and-buildings map, alongside every live feed
• Slew-to-cue — a drone detection automatically points the nearest UniFi PTZ camera at it and zooms in
• Auto-deploy — a UniFi camera alarm scrambles the drone to a fly-to-point overhead, livestream and AI on
• Deterrence — trigger UniFi floodlights or a speaker warning on an alert
• Full drone control — dispatch missions, fly-to-point, gimbal & zoom and return-to-dock
• Video everywhere — RTMP from the drone and RTSP from every UniFi camera, recorded to MP4 with per-class retention and instant HLS/WebRTC playback
• AI on every feed — YOLO detection across the drone's visual/thermal cameras and all fixed cameras, with tracking so one subject is one alert
• One incident, many sensors — drone and camera detections of the same target fuse into a single tracked incident across air and ground
• Best-view auto-switch — the clearest live feed (drone or PTZ) is surfaced and follows the target as it moves
• Geo-stamped detections — aircraft position, camera bearing and rangefinder distance where available
• Live telemetry bridging — position, battery, flight status and health as clean JSON, edge-triggered on change
• Declarative alert rules (class, zone, schedule) with an annotated snapshot and an auto-cut clip
• Signed, retrying webhook delivery (HMAC-SHA256) with per-endpoint filtering and dead-lettering
• Unified signed evidence pack — drone + camera clips, snapshots, track and telemetry as one export
