Integrated Unmanned Aircraft/Camera Systems
For multispectral cameras, unmanned aerial vehicles provide ideal vantage points from which to view the ground below. Capturing quality multispectral images from the air, however, is not an easy task. To do so requires the aircraft and the camera to operate as a single integrated unit. This requires either a single company [...]
Typically, healthy plants are green. Withhold water and they brown. Long before the stress factors that endanger plants can be seen in the visible spectrum, they appear in the near-infrared. Tetracam’s imaging systems monitor the visible and near infrared radiation that plants reflect. This enables our customers to capture the data they need to react [...]
