What are the challenges of nighttime drone missions?
When performing nighttime drone missions (such as patrolling, search and rescue, security, surveying, and inspection), drones face numerous challenges and uncertainties related to environmental perception and control, communications, safety, and legal requirements.
During the environmental perception phase, nighttime visibility is extremely low. Therefore, a drone's night imaging system is crucial in addressing visibility, color, glass, target positioning, and communication requirements.
The most suitable drone for nighttime operations requires a thermal imaging camera, a starlight night vision camera, an infrared camera, and other features to clearly display the target.
Visibility
Thermal Camera
Poor Visibility During Nighttime Operations.
Starlight Vision Camera
EVO Max 4Nz V2 is equipped with both a zoom night vision camera and a wide-angle night vision camera both supporting 4K resolution.The zoom night vision camera enables human detection at distances up to 350meters,capturing rich details of distant targets. The wide-angle Night Visin Cameras provides abroad field of view for comprehensive situational awareness.
Color
Thermal Camera
Insufficient Detail in Black-and-White Night Vision.
Starlight Vision Camera
The color night vision system restores realistic color information in low-light environments,delivering clearer,more detailed images than traditional monochrome night vision,and significantly improving target recognition accuracy.
Glass
Thermal Camera
Night time reconnaissance through glass is obstructed.
Starlight Vision Camera
The EVO Max 4NZ V2 enables observation through glass obstructions, making features of targets inside vehicles or buildings distinctly visible.
Target Positioning
Thermal Camera
Low-light visibility issues during nighttime operations.
Starlight Vision Camera
When ground team members wear night vision goggles they can utilize laser signals projected by the UAV's laser rangefinder to pinpoint marked locations, enabling precise target positioning and effectively enhancing communication.
Communication
Thermal Camera
Challenges in markingand positioning for public safety.
Starlight Vision Camera
In public safety scenarios beacons and laserpointers can serve as target markers, helping UAVs efficiently identify team members and improve positioning accuracy.
