Frequently asked questions
An airborne payload usually prioritizes low weight and power, compact optics, suitable resolution and field of view, low video latency, vibration-aware mounting, and an interface compatible with the flight or payload computer.
Radiometry is important when the robot must measure or trend temperature. Navigation and detection tasks may instead prioritize sensitivity, latency, field of view, and reliable image output.
Yes. Thermal video can be processed alongside visible, depth, radar, or other sensor data. The system design should define synchronization, calibration, data format, compute budget, and validation for the target environment.
