UAVOS has modified its autopilot hardware, developing its new R4 version with next-generation sensors.
The high-performance R4 hardware provides a high level of reliability as well as flight control required for unmanned aircraft with a smaller unit size, less weight and power consumption.
The UAVOS’ hardware autopilot ecosystem received the new GPS, NAV (Central Processing Unit), Interfaces Controller (IFC), and CAS (Data Processing Unit of Pitot Tube) boards.
The new R4 hardware features the next-generation IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensors which provide an ideal blend of performance, accuracy, efficiency and brings numerous options for high-bandwidth I/O.
Through enhancements the UAVOS’ R4 provides the ability to install the board on other motherboards, allowing UAVOS’ autopilot to be adapted to different unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).
“The drivers across the unmanned systems sector will reduce platform size whilst increasing operational flexibility and time operation,” said UAVOS CEO Aliaksei Stratsilatau. “The new UAVOS products aim to offer performance that will significantly exceed what has been accepted as possible from the last systems, regarding unit size, weight and power consumption.”
