Can DUILIO FPV run without DUILIO F4?

Yes. A baseline deployment can run on Raspberry Pi. DUILIO F4 is used when you need advanced safety and machine-level control features.

When should I add DUILIO F4?

Add DUILIO F4 when your project requires stronger failsafe behavior, richer I/O and robust real-time motion control.

DUILIO FPV

Real-time remote control for vehicles and machines, designed for low latency operation over Wi-Fi and 4G/5G networks.

At a glance

Topic	Summary
Latency	Real-time remote control designed for ultra-low delay operation.
Connectivity	Wi-Fi mesh and 4G/5G network support.
Control	PC operator station with live first-person visual feedback.
Safety	Failsafe-first architecture and supervised operation.
Telemetry	Monitoring and diagnostics-ready workflow.
Architecture	Distributed system: PC + Raspberry Pi + STM32 real-time control.

How the system works

Operator commands and first-person video are exchanged over low-latency links. Raspberry Pi handles communication and streaming, while DUILIO F4 executes time-critical motor control.

Low-latency command and video exchange over Wi-Fi or 4G/5G.
PC operator station sends control input and receives live feedback.
Onboard Raspberry Pi manages communication, video, and high-level logic.
DUILIO F4 handles precise motor control and safety-critical functions.
