Key Terms

edge computing technology, loitering munitions, Size, Weight, and Power, fiber optics-controlled aerial systems, +1 more

5 terms

edge computing technology technical

"a global leader in video and artificial intelligence (“AI”)- based edge computing technology"

loitering munitions technical

"Fiber optics-controlled drone systems are becoming essential for loitering munitions and tactical surveillance"

A loitering munition is a weapon that combines a small, guided aircraft and its explosive warhead into a single system that can fly over an area, wait while searching for a target, then dive in to destroy it — think of it as a drone with a built‑in bomb that can loiter like a hawk before striking. Investors care because demand, production, export rules, and ethical or regulatory restrictions can sharply affect defense company revenues, supply chains, and share prices.

Size, Weight, and Power technical

"Its compact, low Size, Weight, and Power (“SwaP”) architecture enables deployment"

Size, weight, and power describes the combined physical dimensions, mass, and energy needs of a device or system — essentially how big it is, how heavy it is, and how much electricity it uses or requires. Investors care because these factors affect manufacturing cost, shipping, installation, operating expense and market fit; like choosing luggage for a trip, smaller, lighter items with lower power needs are often cheaper to produce, easier to sell into new markets and can provide a competitive edge.

fiber optics-controlled aerial systems technical

"designed specifically for advanced drone payloads and fiber optics-controlled aerial systems"

forward-looking statements regulatory

"This press release contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A"

Forward-looking statements are predictions or plans that companies share about what they expect to happen in the future, like estimating sales or profits. They matter because they help investors understand a company's outlook, but since they are based on guesses and assumptions, they can sometimes be wrong.

Exhibit 99.1

Maris-Tech Introduces New Compact Edge AI Fiber Optics Platform for Drone Payloads

New ultra-compact solution designed for fiber optics-controlled
loitering munitions and surveillance drones combines AI,
advanced video processing, and low-SWaP architecture

Rehovot, Israel, May 26, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Maris-Tech Ltd. (Nasdaq: MTEK, MTEKW) (“Maris-Tech” or the “Company”), a global leader in video and artificial intelligence (“AI”)- based edge computing technology, today announced the introduction of a new ultra-compact platform designed specifically for advanced drone payloads and fiber optics-controlled aerial systems (the “New Platform” or the “Platform”).

Developed to address the operational requirements of a leading international defense contractor, the New Platform integrates advanced video processing and AI capabilities into an extremely small form factor optimized for modern drone environments.

The Platform utilizes a powerful System on Chip featuring multimedia and AI capabilities while supporting direct integration with relatively low-cost Mobile Industry Processor Interface cameras. Its compact, low Size, Weight, and Power (“SwaP”) architecture enables deployment across a wide range of aerial platforms where payload size and operational efficiency are critical.

A key feature of the Platform is its dedicated fiber optics connectivity interface, designed to support secure, high-bandwidth, low-latency video and data transmission for fiber optics-controlled drone operations.

“Fiber optics-controlled drone systems are becoming essential for loitering munitions and tactical surveillance,” said Israel Bar, Chief Executive Officer of Maris-Tech. “We identified this growing market need early and moved to develop a mission-ready solution that combines advanced edge AI, video intelligence, and compact deployment capabilities. We believe this New Platform positions Maris-Tech to support the next generation of resilient drone technologies being adopted by leading defense organizations worldwide.”
