Gas Detection
Intelligent Airborne Hyperspectral Mapping
This ultra-compact airborne hyperspectral imaging system captures high-fidelity data across the 400–1,000 nm range with flexible spectral binning to balance resolution and data throughput. Optimized for UAV integration, it combines a high-efficiency reflective spectrograph, CMOS detector, onboard processor, solid-state storage, and integrated navigation system (GPS + MEMS IMU with Kalman filtering) into a single lightweight platform. Wide field-of-view optics and high spatial sampling enable precise mapping and feature detection, while onboard data handling and 12-bit processing reduce storage burden and streamline workflows. Designed for low SWaP-C deployment, the system delivers high frame rates (>400 Hz) and robust performance for commercial remote sensing, agriculture, and industrial geospatial intelligence applications.
