Brazil-based Helisul Aviation has selected Daedalean’s PilotEye traffic awareness system for its fleet, marking Helisul as the launch customer for PilotEye and the first AI-enabled system to be installed on an entire fleet of aircraft.
Under the agreement, Helisul will retrofit its Airbus AS350 helicopters and will operate as Daedalean’s partner MRO, serving LATAM for future installations and system maintenance.
“Leveraging the best of innovative technology has always been at the heart of Helisul’s commitment to safety,” said Humberto Biesuz, Executive Superintendent at Helisul. “We are proud to adopt Daedalean’s ground-breaking AI technology and to become the first operator to feature the most advanced cockpit in the industry. We see great potential in using Daedalean’s pilot assistance systems to further enhance the safety of our operations.”
“This agreement allows Daedalean to demonstrate the benefits of its technologies in the cockpit from day one,” said Dr Yemaya Bordain, President of the Americas, Daedalean. “We are thrilled to contribute to the safety of Helisul’s real-world operations as well as to jointly develop the system further to create what we call Situational Intelligence, which is the ability of the system not only to recognise the environment but anticipate future risks. Through this collaboration, both Helisul and Daedalean stand to make great strides in safety in the skies.”
