MTX108VA-HNV230T000L000 Tri-axis Single-Light Pod

The MTX108VA-HNV230T000L000 Tri-axis Single-Light Pod is an advanced optoelectronic system designed for medium and small-sized UAVs. It features a 30x continuously zoom visible light camera, three-axis servo stabilization platform, and autonomous image processing with target recognition and tracking capabilities. The lightweight pod delivers high stability and precision with exceptional integration. It seamlessly integrates with mainstream Chinese flight control platforms and ViewControlStudio software for rapid UAV system development. The pod combines uncooled infrared thermal imaging and visible light cameras for round-the-clock target detection, identification, and tracking, outputting real-time video feeds. Ideal for reconnaissance, border patrol, search and rescue, and forest fire prevention, it offers 30x optical zoom, autofocus, fog penetration, and low-light functionality. Advanced features include automatic target tracking with memory capability, multiple working modes, three degrees of freedom motion, and locking/unlocking functions. The system communicates via serial port or 100Mbps Ethernet, supports photo and video recording, and includes a quick-release mechanism. Operating at 24V DC with minimal power consumption and weighing under 700g, it performs reliably in temperatures from -20 to +55 degrees Celsius.

The MTX108VA-HNV230T000L000 optoelectronic pod integrates a 30x continuously zoom visible light camera, a three-axis servo stabilization platform, and an image processing module featuring autonomous recognition and tracking capabilities. It is characterized by lightweight construction, high stabilization precision, strong system integration, automatic target recognition, and autonomous tracking. The pod is suitable for deployment on medium and small-sized UAVs, enabling day-and-night reconnaissance and surveillance over target areas.

This pod has been adapted to multiple mainstream flight control platforms in China, allowing seamless integration with existing flight control systems. It can also be connected to our organization’s ViewControlStudio display and control software platform, helping system integrators rapidly complete UAV system development.

Equipped with an uncooled infrared thermal imager and a visible light camera, the pod can detect, identify, and track ground targets around the clock, outputting real-time infrared and visible video feeds for mission operators.

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