Narya — Demo video

This project is an AI-assisted search-and-rescue sensing platform that fuses LiDAR, thermal, and visible camera data to detect human presence, localize it in 3D, and stream that information to remote operators. In a rescue like the stranded airman mission in Iran, a ruggedized version mounted on a drone, ground robot, or temporary overwatch sensor could have reduced the search area faster, confirmed whether a heat/body signature was actually a person, and given rescuers a live 3D map of likely human locations, obstacles, and approach paths without immediately exposing personnel. It runs fully on the edge and connects directly to the Foundry to integrate the data into Palantir's post-processing pipeline.
