New ultra-low SWaP payload marks an engineering milestone by delivering video over wireless channels traditionally considered unsuitable for real-time transmission
Rehovot, Israel, June 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maris-Tech Ltd. (Nasdaq: MTEK, MTEKW) (“Maris-Tech” or the “Company”), a global leader in edge computing, artificial intelligence (“AI”), and video intelligence solutions for defense applications, today announced the launch of Mars-RF-HD, a new ultra-low Size, Weight, and Power (“SWaP”) drone video payload designed to enable ultra-narrowband video transmission over radio frequency (“RF”)-Datalink and long-range (“LoRA”) wireless communication networks.
The launch represents an important engineering milestone for the Company. While LoRA technology is widely recognized for its exceptionally long communication range and low power consumption, its extremely limited bandwidth has traditionally made it impractical for transmitting operational video. Mars-RF-HD is designed to overcome this challenge by using highly optimized image compression techniques to transmit optimized time-lapse image sequences, providing operators with visual intelligence over communication channels previously considered unsuitable for video applications.
Designed for a broad range of unmanned aerial vehicle (“UAV”) missions, Mars-RF-HD supports long-range visual situational awareness while maintaining an ultra-low SWaP profile. The payload interfaces directly with the aircraft's autopilot and supports operation over both RF-Datalink and LoRA wireless channels, making it suitable for applications such as surveillance and loitering munitions platforms.
Maris-Tech has already delivered samples of Mars-RF-HD to a leading defense industry customer, where the system is currently undergoing evaluation for potential operational deployment.
"We believe that introducing Mars-RF-HD marks another important milestone in expanding Maris-Tech's journey in the drones market," said Israel Bar, Chief Executive Officer of Maris-Tech. "We are grateful for the opportunity to continue working with leading defense organizations that challenge us to solve complex engineering problems. Enabling visual information over communication channels with such limited bandwidth demonstrates our continued commitment to advancing edge video processing and AI technologies for next-generation unmanned systems."
