SECO USA designs and manufactures customized remote control systems, including unmanned ground vehicle (UGV) controllers and unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) controllers, that meet the varied needs of military, government, first responder, and commercial sectors. Whether tethered to the vehicle or providing control through a radio communications link, each handheld controller is precisely engineered for ergonomics, low latency, various electronic and electromechanical features, and performance in extreme environments. Our remote controller solutions meet the most stringent specifications and complex use cases.

Using a Modified COTS design approach, SECO USA can design and manufacture custom devices, circuitry, and software based on validated commercial off-the-shelf (COTS) products. SECO USA's process significantly shortens development time, lowers development cost, and minimizes risk.
