FrameWorkx delivers real-time video capture, tracking, and classification for defence integrators. Optimised for CHARM and VPDU platforms, it provides ultra-low latency, mission-critical applications across land, sea and air.

FrameWorkx is an advanced, configurable video processing framework designed to meet the specific operational needs of defence and security platforms. Its modular architecture enables integrators to build and adapt video pipelines to support a range of mission requirements.
The software runs natively on Vision4ce CHARM embedded hardware and is also available as a software-only solution for x86 and ARM platforms.
Standard processing functions include:
FrameWorkx combines traditional Computer Vision techniques with advanced AI algorithms, including Vision4ce’s proprietary DEFT (Deep Embedded Feature Tracking) technology, for accurate and clutter-resistant performance in real-world defence environments.
FrameWorkx is optimised for the Vision4ce VPDU (Video Processing and Distribution Unit), a rugged, high-performance mission computer designed for real-time video processing and multi-display output.
Typical applications include armoured vehicles equipped with electro-optical sighting systems, driver cameras and situational awareness sensors, all managed through the VPDU and distributed to multiple displays.
FrameWorkx ensures these video streams are processed, stabilised and synchronised in real time for maximum operational awareness.
Vision4ce also develops bespoke applications for the VPDU, tailored to individual platform requirements and mission needs.
Video Management Software (VMS) provides a complete suite for video control and image processing, integrating seamlessly with FrameWorkx for real-time analytics across electro-optical systems.
The Vision4ce CHARM range of rugged embedded platforms delivers the processing power required for mission-ready applications at the edge. Designed for reliability, CHARM hardware supports Frameworkx and other Vision4ce software in demanding environments.
DEFT (Deep Embedded Feature Tracking) uses deep learning for accurate, clutter-resistant tracking in dynamic conditions. DEFT is ideal for Counter-UAS, surveillance and defence targeting applications.

The video shows a Class 1 FPV drone, approximately 500m out, being flown by a British Armed Forces drone pilot. We asked him to attack our position and see if he could break our tracking lock. As the video shows we can cope with changes in the background and foreground clutter, changes in contrast, focus and scale. Altogether we are offering the most robust tracking on the market.
