VECROS, an Indian deep-tech company developing autonomous aerial systems and AI-powered robotic platforms, today announced the commercial availability of Jetcore, its India-designed AI autonomy compute platform for drones and robots. Built for autonomous systems operating in complex and GPS-denied environments, Jetcore combines the computing, control, sensing and software capabilities required to enable intelligent, reliable robotic autonomy at the edge.
One Platform instead of many boards
Jetcore brings together high-performance AI computing, real-time flight and motion control, multi-sensor connectivity, power management, embedded firmware and VECROS’ proprietary Jetpix autonomy stack in a single integrated platform. By consolidating these core autonomy functions, Jetcore is designed to reduce hardware complexity, simplify system integration and minimize inter-board communication delays, while enabling improved sensor synchronization and overall system reliability.

Jetcore supports a wide range of onboard AI and autonomous robotics workloads, including visual-inertial odometry, GPS-denied localization, SLAM, obstacle avoidance, multi-camera perception, sensor fusion, 3D mapping and autonomous mission execution. By processing these capabilities directly onboard, Jetcore enables drones and robotic systems to perceive, navigate and act in real time without continuous cloud connectivity or a pilot in the loop.
Prem Sai Besta, Founder & CEO, VECROS, said, “Jetcore represents a defining milestone in VECROS’ journey—from building autonomous drone products to creating the foundational autonomy infrastructure for the robotics industry. We built it by solving real-world autonomy challenges in our own systems, validated across thousands of autonomous flight hours. Jetcore lets robotics developers focus on differentiated applications rather than rebuilding the underlying autonomy stack.”

From 5,000 flight hours to commercial availability
Following more than 5,000 autonomous flight hours and early commercial validation, VECROS is making Jetcore available to drone and robotics manufacturers across defence, warehousing, industrial inspection, infrastructure monitoring, mining, utilities, public safety and agriculture.
VECROS has also deployed JASPER, its autonomous warehouse inventory and inspection solution, in complex, fast-moving warehouse environments. The deployment has generated over 2,000 autonomous flight hours in GPS-denied conditions, building a repository of real-world autonomy data that will underpin the company’s next-generation Physical AI capabilities — AI that perceives and acts in the physical world.
