Ares 12H

The Ares 12H is a compact Ground Control Station engineered to support unmanned system operations in demanding defense and security environments. Built for field deployment, it combines a lightweight, portable structure with dependable computing performance and a high-brightness display designed for visibility in direct sunlight. Certified to MIL-STD-810, MIL-STD-461, MIL-STD-1275, and IP65 standards, the platform is suited for operation in extreme temperatures, vibration-heavy conditions, and electrically noisy environments where consistent system control is critical.

Designed around operator usability, the Ares 12H features an ergonomic layout that supports prolonged mission use while maintaining precise and responsive control. Its adaptable interface configuration allows customization for different workflows, with integrated connectivity including USB, an 8-port Ethernet switch, HDMI, discrete I/O, and RS232. This flexibility enables seamless integration across UAV, UAS, UGV, and robotic platforms, supporting applications such as command and control systems, drone operations, and loitering munition deployment.
