Velox EO/IR Payload

Gyro-stabilized visible and thermal imaging for aerial surveillance

miniature thermal imaging payloadsVelox by Nanomotion is a miniature two-axis gyro-stabilized EO/IR payload designed for both commercial and defense applications. With a compact footprint and a weight of just 430 grams, the low-SWaP (size, weight and power) imaging system is ideal for a wide range of drone platforms, including multirotors, fixed-wing aircraft, and unmanned helicopters.

Integrating a 12 MP RGB camera and an uncooled 640 x 512 LWIR camera, the advanced visible and thermal imaging payload achieves precision elevation and azimuth stabilization of better than 80 μRad. With excellent dynamic performance, it can compensate for even large-amplitude vibrations, delivering low-light and night-time imaging with no blur.
