UAVs, UGVs, and USVs consist of multi-disciplinary components, such as electronic modules, wiring harnesses, and structural members. The UxV/35 Standard provides a modular assembly approach for uncrewed systems that minimizes wiring and increases the success rate and speed of assembly.

UxV/35 boards snap together into “stacks” through pin connectors. Components can also be used in a planar configuration; these platforms spread out the stack into a flatter format. The precision design of the connecting pins between stacked boards ensures rapid assembly and reliable performance.

The assembly process involves:

·Unpacking a set of UxV/35 compatible boards.

·Stacking them as needed.

·Configuring their software.

After installing the batteries, the unmanned craft can operate within minutes.
