VivoeX: Dropping the ‘Lite’ and Lighting Up Military Vehicle Software Development!
We are excited to announce that we are renaming our C4ISR toolkit from Vivoe Lite to VivoeX. This updated edition offers a more complete solution for developing C4ISR applications implementing the Generic Vehicle Architecture (GVA). Our updated Software Development Kit (SDK) is available under open source licensing and now comes with additional features to support media streaming (with MediaX) and cross-platform HMI renderer for developing military vehicle software for multiple roles on a vehicle.
Our commercially supported edition, VivoeX Pro (out later this year), is designed to provide even more robust support for Land Data Model (LDM) services developed as part of the Land Open Combat Architecture (LOCA). With this edition, you’ll also get access to tooling and AI modules (with SituationX) for rapid development of in-vehicle and soldier-worn applications.
The renaming of our C4ISR toolkit from Vivoe Lite to VivoeX reflects the evolution of the tool’s capabilities, making it even more powerful and flexible than before. VivoeX Pro will offer a complete solution for developing C4ISR applications, including GVA support, media streaming with MediaX, cross-platform HMI renderer, and LDM services developed as part of LOCA.
We believe that open source licensing will help drive innovation and collaboration among developers in the military vehicle software space. The new features of VivoeX, along with the existing capabilities, will enable developers to create cutting-edge applications with ease.
“VivoeX Pro is our flagship product, designed to provide developers with the necessary tools and modules for rapid development of in-vehicle, autonomous and soldier-worn applications.

DefenceX supports PRM Engineering
DefenceX to provide consultancy and engineering resources for upgraded Sentinel Vision Vision A.I. Human Recognition & Warning System
PRM Engineering, a leading provider of industrial machinery safety systems, has announced that it has partnered with DefenceX, a renowned defence technology company, to upgrade its Sentinel Vision AI enabled Pedestrian Recognition & Warning System. The upgraded system will feature enhanced reliability, increased vigilance and better object collision avoidance than a human spotter.
The Sentinel Vision AI system, which can be retrofitted to any machine, is capable of monitoring hazardous zones for pedestrian detection and object collision avoidance. The system features pre-warning and audible alarms that provide the operator and pedestrian with an opportunity to take action, either by stopping the machine or moving away safely. Additionally, the system has an optional Motion Stop integration that allows machine control if the operator or pedestrian fails to stop or move away safely.
Customers have reported superior detection distance, low light performance, ruggedness and reliability of detection compared to older technologies. Furthermore, the detection zones are fully configurable to any shape by width and distance, and larger machines can utilize more cameras for rear blind spot detection.
“PRM Engineering is excited to partner with DefenceX to upgrade our Sentinel Vision AI enabled Pedestrian Recognition & Warning System,” said a PRM Engineering spokesperson Avril Davis. “The collaboration will ensure that our system continues to offer cutting-edge technology to our customers. We look forward to working with DefenceX to provide our customers with the best possible solutions for their needs.”
DefenceX is equally thrilled about the partnership with PRM Engineering, stating that they are looking forward to providing consultancy and engineering resources for the upgraded system. The new system will undoubtedly improve pedestrian safety in hazardous zones, and the optional Motion Stop integration will further enhance machine control and safety.
