Optical Sensors
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 stabilization 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 sensor hardware and optional infrared (IR) thermal sensors, proprietary DroneShield MIL-SPEC brackets, and DroneOptID AI-enabled optical/thermal target acquisition and tracking software.
