Compact UAVs and the evolving role of security overwatch

Helicopters created the ‘eye in the sky’ idea of security and law enforcement work, but unmanned arial vehicles – or UAVs – can be as effective at a fraction of the cost – if equipped with the correct sensor payload.

Advancing wildlife conservation: How UAVs and laser rangefinders are driving innovation

UAVs and laser rangefinders in wildlife and conservation The illegal wildlife trade is valued at $20bn annually, driven by powerful market forces and commanding deep financial and technology resources. Evaluate that treat, and it’s clear that traditional wildlife and conservation

The Next Frontier: unlocking new drone markets with mid-range laser rangefinders

Despite strong growth, driven by many new applications and innovations, there remains a gap in the laser rangefinder market. These crucial UAV depth perception and localization sensors are available in many configurations, but ultralight mid-range laser rangefinders remain an underdeveloped

Harmony in diversity: The sensor fusion symphony of camera, lidar, and GPS tech.

Sensor fusion is the technology symphony orchestrating better spatial awareness and greater navigational accuracy for UAVs. The components of this technology symphony are various sensor modalities: cameras, LiDAR, and GPS, each with unique strengths and inherent weaknesses.
