The new release adds support for Revision C of Sightline’s 3000-OEM multi-channel video processing platform, allowing the new revision to be used as a drop-in replacement for existing 3000-OEM integrations. The unit now has a 6W max power consumption in Single DSP mode and 10W max in Dual DSP mode.
The new software also enables the 3000-OEM to support 1080i input, output of separate video streams on HDSDI and HDMI, and compatibility with Airborne Innovations’ micro Global Shutter camera.
A variety of new detection and tracking features for counter-UAS (unmanned aircraft systems) applications have also been added, including:
- New drone detection / tracking modes designed to find and track small, dynamically moving UAS
- A track-model pause mode to allow tracking through large, known obstructions or events
- Radiometric Detect algorithm split into two separate algorithms – Blob Detection and Radiometric Detection. Blob detection finds objects which have brightness levels different from the surrounding area, and Radiometric detection finds objects within a defined amplitude range for ISR integrators
- Multi-PiP with detection. Small picture-in-picture windows can be opened with each detection to aid operator situational awareness and analysis
- New dashed-line reticle when track confidence is low
- Landing Aid sample code support of Pixhawk APM (in addition to PX4 and native MicroPilot support)
