High Definition PTZ Cameras

Item Numbers: 107 | 107-2 | 107-4

These extremely rugged, high definition PTZ cameras are used for Electro-Optical (EO) verification. They are seamlessly integrated into DroneSentry-C2 which enables:

  • Slew-to-cue on aerial target

  • Manual PTZ through native application

  • Multiple sources/types of evidence collection

  • Advanced imaging and precision positioning

In-built image stabilisation works to dynamically detect vibration or movement and counteract this in both the horizontal and vertical axis, resulting in exceptional image clarity and high zoom levels.

DroneShield offers packages which include optical camera hardware and optional IR (Infrared) thermal sensors, proprietary DroneShield MIL-SPEC brackets, and DroneOptID AI-enabled optical/thermal target acquisition and tracking software.
