Upbeat Launches Bluemag SiFive RISC-V Based Pi Drone Controller with Onboard AI
Upbeat Technology, a pioneer in ultra-low-power compute, voice, and edge AI sensing solutions, today announced the launch of Bluemag Pi, a sensor-integrated AI flight controller built for long-endurance fixed-wing aircraft, commercial multirotor drones, and unmanned surface vessels. The board provides ample RAM, nonvolatile storage, hardware floating-point capability, timers, direct memory access (DMA), and interrupt resources to support advanced flight operations. Bluemag Pi runs the Apache NuttX real-time operating system and is compatible with the industry's leading open-source flight-control stacks, including PX4, ArduPilot, and Betaflight.

Opening excerpt (first ~120 words) tap to expand
Upbeat Technology, a pioneer in ultra-low-power compute, voice, and edge AI sensing solutions, today announced the launch of Bluemag Pi, a sensor-integrated AI flight controller built for long-endurance fixed-wing aircraft, commercial multirotor drones, and unmanned surface vessels. The board runs on Upbeat's UP301 system-on-chip, which pairs SiFive's E3 and E2 RISC-V processor cores in a dual-core architecture built for flight-critical applications.The UP301's multicore architecture separates time-critical flight tasks from communication, navigation, and system-management functions, improving responsiveness and reliability.
