We are delighted to share strong year-to-date performance for our Vision4ce brand, reflecting growing demand for real-time video processing and tracking capabilities across defence applications. Since the start of the financial year in May 2025, Vision4ce has maintained sustained momentum, with two recent months each recording new orders exceeding £1.6 million.
This outstanding performance highlights how customers are increasingly prioritising reliability, robustness, and real-world operational performance over theoretical specifications when selecting critical tracking and processing systems.
Owen Sogeler, Vision4ce Sales Manager said, ‘A lot of systems look good on paper. The real test is how they perform once they leave the site. Chess’ Vision4ce technology has been built around that reality, and customers are responding to technology they can rely on when conditions are complex, cluttered and unpredictable.’
Vision4ce within the Chess portfolio
The Vision4ce brand underpins a wide range of Chess Dynamics systems, providing the real-time video processing and tracking capability at their core. When engineered as part of a fully integrated Chess system, the Vision4ce technology works alongside sensors and stabilisation elements to deliver consistent, high-confidence performance.
This performance has been supported by continued demand for Vision4ce technology across the wider Chess portfolio. CHARM modules and Frameworkx software have played a central role in supporting this growth.
CHARM and Frameworkx technology
The CHARM modules provide an edge computing platform that removes the need for customers to develop their own processing hardware, while delivering low latency performance through close integration of hardware and software. This approach supports flexible deployment across different platforms and mission requirements without compromising reliability.
The Frameworkx technology extends this capability into software-only deployments, supporting applications where size, weight and power constraints limit the use of additional hardware. In both cases, the emphasis is on delivering proven processing and tracking performance that can be integrated effectively within wider system architectures.
Owen Sogeler, Vision4ce Sales Manager added, ‘The value comes from how these elements are engineered together. Vision4ce technology is not about isolated components. It is about combining processing, software and system integration in a way that delivers dependable performance and can be adapted to different platforms and missions without compromising reliability.’
The strength of software performance has also been supported by the depth and continuity of the company’s engineering teams, the majority of whom have been working in tracking, video processing and electro optical systems for more than a decade. This long-term experience continues to shape product development and customer support.
As the financial year progresses, Chess Dynamics remains focused on building on this momentum, investing in the Vision4ce product line capability and advancing greater levels of automation and autonomy, ensuring it continues to strengthen the performance of Chess’ systems across land, maritime and integrated defence applications.
