The company

What they're building

Attention-Link builds resilient video-link technology for FPV drones and robotic platforms, designed to keep a pilot's feed alive in contested radio-frequency environments. Its pipeline cuts the data needed to transmit a mission video feed while preserving the visual detail operators actually rely on, working with commodity FPV hardware.

Why now

As electronic warfare and jamming reshape how drones operate, conventional FPV links lose range or become easy to interfere with — making anti-jamming, long-range video a live requirement rather than a nice-to-have.

The backstory

Founded in 2026 in Malta by Igor Markiv, the company set out to solve the specific failure point where drone video links break down under interference, and reports a working prototype integrated with a flying FPV airframe.

Why this team

The company describes an operating model spanning video processing, signal processing, software engineering, networking and hardware research — a broad remit for a young team, and it says its prototype has already gone through validation activities involving defence stakeholders.
