Getac Unveils Modular & Rugged Remote Drone Control System for Critical Field Operations

Getac Technology Corporation has launched CommandCore, a customizable remote drone control solution designed to support unmanned aerial, surface, and ground vehicles operating in challenging environments.

Serving as a centralized hub for real-time data processing and operational management, the system’s Ground Control Station allows operators to pair rugged computing hardware with industry-specific payloads and software. Hardware options encompass both Android and Windows platforms, ranging from the ZX80 and UX10 fully rugged tablets to the S510 laptop, B360 laptop, and X600 workstation. Deployment flexibility is further enhanced through adaptable physical configurations, including integrated control setups, detached accessory designs, desktop docking units, and dual-display suitcase systems for mobile command activities.

Engineered with modular architecture and open software compatibility, the platform integrates smoothly with existing drone ecosystems and third-party technologies. By utilizing its advanced in-house manufacturing capabilities and system-level engineering expertise, Getac offers tailored configurations rather than fixed designs, directly supporting complex Multi-Domain Operations across land, sea, and air.

The solution targets demanding operational scenarios across three primary sectors. Within defence, it supports intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance activity from mobile and semi-fixed command posts, assisting Army aviation and integrated air defense systems. In public safety, first responders can deploy handheld or vehicle-based configurations for rapid disaster response and search-and-rescue operations. For the utilities sector, the system enables centralized waypoint guidance and remote monitoring to inspect critical infrastructure and hazardous, hard-to-reach terrain.

“As the use of drones becomes increasingly widespread throughout numerous industries around the world, demand for comprehensive remote control solutions is also growing significantly,” says James Hwang, President of Getac Technology Corporation. “CommandCore answers this demand, providing professionals who work in challenging environments every day with a highly customisable rugged control solution they can rely on to get the job done when it matters most.”
