Edge Autonomy’s Octopus ISR Systems division develops advanced optronic surveillance payloads for UAVs and unmanned systems. The non-ITAR UAV camera gimbals are engineered with a low SWaP (size, weight and power) profile and are fully ruggedized to withstand the rigors of the harshest operating environments.
Octopus ISR Systems offers exceptional target detection capabilities with up to 30x optical zoom at Full HD quality, and up to 90x optical zoom at SD quality for even closer views.
All EO/IR gimbals feature built-in high-performance video processing, enabling a range of useful features including target tracking, video stabilization, roll correction, and digital zoom.
Edge Autonomy’s highly reliable rugged power solutions are designed for longevity and durability, and are ideal for powering critical UAV systems.
Unlike other fuel cells on the market, the proprietary microtubular design offers built-in redundancy, ensuring that your system will continue to produce the power you need, no matter what challenges you face.
