MS155TA-NNV230T660L305 Two-axis, three-light pod

Integrated high-altitude heating system with active window de-icing and anti-fogging capability.

The system incorporates an integrated high-altitude heating module, providing active window de-icing and anti-fogging to maintain clear optical performance in extreme cold and high-altitude operating conditions.

I. Product Introduction

The MS155TA-NNV230T660L305 optoelectronic pod integrates an uncooled infrared thermal imager, a 30x continuously zoomable visible light camera, a laser rangefinder, a two-axis servo-stabilized platform, and an image processing module capable of autonomous target identification and tracking. Designed for high precision and low latency, the pod is suitable for deployment on small unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) to perform round-the-clock reconnaissance and surveillance missions over target areas.

The pod utilizes its uncooled infrared thermal imager and visible light camera to detect, identify, and track ground targets day and night, while simultaneously outputting real-time infrared and visible light video feeds for mission personnel.

It has been adapted to several mainstream flight control platforms in China, allowing seamless integration with existing flight control systems. Additionally, the pod can interface with our organization’s ViewControlStudio display and control software platform, helping the overall unit accelerate the development of UAV systems.

Typical applications of this optoelectronic pod include reconnaissance, targeting and guidance, border patrol, personnel search and rescue, and forest fire prevention.
