Drone drone sensor HT18R

LIDARinfrared

HT18R is a tri-axis stabilized multi-sensor payload designed for industrial UAVs to deliver consolidated day-and-night inspection data, combining visible imaging, thermal sensing and long-range laser ranging in a compact, lightweight unit.

Key features

• Integrated multi-sensor design for synchronized visible, thermal and laser ranging data from one payload.
• High-resolution visible imaging with wide-angle and telephoto cameras and extended zoom capability for long-distance identification (25× hybrid, up to 144× hybrid).
• Thermal imaging for night inspection and obscured-conditions hotspot detection; suitable for diagnostics and anomaly screening.
• Long-range laser rangefinder effective to 2000 m for precise distance measurement and geotagging of targets.
• Tri-axis stabilization with jitter precision around ±0.02° and industrial environmental protection (IP44) for reliable operation in field conditions.

Applications

• Power line and substation inspection
• Oil and gas pipeline surveillance
• Photovoltaic plant assessment and panel diagnostics
• Urban fire rescue support and forest/wildfire surveillance
• General infrastructure and asset inspection requiring combined visual, thermal and ranging data
