1、 Product Introduction
The S230TA photoelectric pod consists of an uncooled infrared thermal imager, a 30x continuous zoom visible light camera, a laser rangefinder, a two axis servo stabilized platform and an image tracker. It has the characteristics of light weight, high stability accuracy, and high integration, and can be applied to medium and large unmanned aerial vehicles to complete tasks such as day and night reconnaissance, monitoring, and target positioning of the target area.
The optoelectronic pod utilizes uncooled infrared thermal imagers and visible light cameras to detect, recognize, and track ground targets throughout the day, and outputs real-time infrared and visible light videos for task execution personnel to view.
The photoelectric pod is mainly used in reconnaissance, border patrol, personnel search and rescue, forest fire prevention and other scenarios.
