Since 2024, its technologies have been used by Ukraine's Security and Defense Forces [uk] — including the Armed Forces, the National Guard, the National Police, and the State Border Guard Service — in the context of the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War.[5][6]

History

Farsight Vision was founded in 2023 by Viktoriia Yaremchuk and Volodymyr Nepiuk, who met while studying at the Lviv Business School of UCU [uk] (part of the Ukrainian Catholic University). The original concept focused on 3D modeling and mapping enemy trenches, based on requests from the Security and Defense Forces of Ukraine [uk] to better understand the structure of Russian fortifications for operational planning.[6] By February 2024, the company's solutions were already being deployed on the front lines,[7] and by May 2024, it had completed its first sales.[6] The company is officially registered in both Ukraine and Estonia.[8][6]

In the summer of 2024, Farsight Vision participated in the five-day Extreme Bootcamp program held in Ukraine and organised by the investor coalition Darkstar for defense technology startups.[9] According to Ragnar Sass, co-founder of the coalition, Farsight Vision was highly regarded among the participants of the bootcamp.[10] In September 2024, the company secured €600,000 in investment from Darkstar.[11][12][13] This funding followed earlier backing from the Freedom Fund VC and a pair of angel investors.[14][6]

In late September 2024, the company was represented at the Resilience Conference in London.[15] Later, Farsight Vision signed a memorandum of cooperation with the Ukrainian Humanitarian Demining Center [uk].[6] In May 2025, the company presented its solutions at the DSEI Japan defense technology exhibition in Japan,[16] as part of cooperation between the Brave1 defense tech cluster and the Japanese company Rakuten, which supports the entry of Ukrainian startups into the Japanese market.[17][18]

In spring 2025, the company's technologies were first used during military exercises in Estonia,[19] and in June of the same year, they were included in the online military training course "Using Technology in Wartime," developed by the Ukrainian project Victory Drones.[20] In November 2025, Farsight Vision was nominated for the Future Unicorn Award 2026 by the European trade association DigitalEurope in the dual-use technology category.[21]

Products

The company develops hardware and software for collecting, processing, and analyzing media data obtained from drones, including in electronic warfare environments. FSV Mapper is an autonomous device that pre-processes media files and transmits them to the situational awareness platform; it's designed to work in environments with unstable connectivity. FSV Navigator is a navigation module mounted on a drone, designed to aid route stability in GPS-denied conditions.[6][22][23]

FSV Platform

FSV Platform is a geospatial analytics and situational awareness platform that converts photo and video materials captured in electronic warfare environments into precise orthophotos and 3D models of terrain (so-called "digital twins"),[10][24] with an accuracy of 5–7 cm per pixel.[2] The results are displayed as layers on a digital map and available through a VR application.[24][22]

The platform automatically detects objects and changes in terrain and integrates with situational awareness and battlefield management systems such as Delta, Kropyva [uk], Combat Vision, MilChat, and TacticMap.[2][5]
