Versatile integration
‍of high end cameras and sensors

Electro-Optical / Infrared (EO/IR) gyrostabilized camera gimbal provides high-resolution optical and thermal video imagery for wide area surveillance. Additional capabilities are onboard Image Processing, i.e. a state-of-the-art onboard image processing capability.

The onboard processing leads to a rock-solid target tracking performance and thanks to a stable data link solution, it eliminates any communication latency issues. Its processed video reduces the data rate and requires lower bandwidth datalinks.

The video stream, along with snapshots, can be stored in HD quality onboard as well. It is also capable of hands-free tracking of moving objects. The operator can allocate the target and zoom in, while the onboard processor will hold the target in the centre of the video screen regardless of the aircraft movement direction.

This is a useful feature for long-range surveillance, monitoring applications, and law enforcement applications. Target tracking is paramount in applications where the aircraft is moving or following the object that is moving relative to the ground.

LiDAR can be used to create 3D elevation map of a particular land. This can be converted to create slope and sunlight exposure area map. The LIDAR system pulses a laser beam onto a mirror projecting it downward and scanning from side to side.

When the laser hits an object, it will reflect to the mirror converting this into distance. With a post-processing software, a 3D model can be created. LiDAR missions are frequently used for powerlines and Oil & Gas pipeline corridors mapping, cartography, forestry management, etc.

For maritime Surveillance and SAR missions, the use of an AI based sensors can streamline their efficiency. Thanks to an onboard processing, greater area can be inspected and searched compared to standard solutions. The system scans stretch of water in a highly systematic way with AI algorithms, machine learning and neural networks trained specifically to detect the objects the operator is looking for (any size of vessels, people, animals, etc.).

The user sends targets of interest coordinates to the video gimbal with a simple click on the user interface. This allows the operator to spend their time focusing on the important targets and making faster decisions.

Multispectral and Hyperspectral imaging collects and processes information from across the electromagnetic spectrum. The goal of this imaging is to obtain the spectrum for each pixel in the image of a scene, with the purpose of finding objects, identifying materials, etc.

This type of imaging solution from a UAV are mostly used in the agriculture industry.
