Open Unmanned Mission Interface

The Open Unmanned Mission Interface provides an advanced interoperability on a common control operator interface for multiple, heterogeneous unmanned vehicles using the STANAG 4586 and JAUS standards.

Open UMI box designOpen UMI also provides cross platform support and is tested in the Windows and Linux environment. Open UMI is built on the NAVAIR Unmanned Systems Research and Development Laboratory (USRDL) Murc open source project and contains customer specific configuration files and installers.

DTI personnel, in partnership with the NAVAIR Human Systems Dept. USRDL, continued development of Murc open source project with the focus on making the control station integrate seamlessly with multiple, different unmanned vehicle standards. “Traditional control stations suffer from limitations of only being able to control a single vehicle or a single type of vehicle.  They were all purpose built, stove-pipe solutions,” said Donald Jackson, Senior Vice President of Defense Technologies.  “Our technology enables us to control any unmanned system concurrently, be it ground, air, surface, and very possibly underwater, or even space.”

The Murc open source project that Open UMI is built on has logged hundreds of hours of operation in live testing both STANAG and JAUS environments.  “This gives us a great opportunity to evaluate the interface and make improvements,” said Todd Sims, developer and telemetry operator.
