Rapid integration and manufacturing for EO/IR camera systems
| Challenge | An OEM required rapid integration and manufacturing of a dual optical and thermal (EO/IR) camera solution into its drone system. |
| Solution | Aerora leveraged its engineering and NDAA-compliant manufacturing capabilities to fulfill this need. Collaborating, the advanced FLIR Hadron camera, featuring 640×512 thermal and 64MP optical resolutions, to ensure superior imaging performance was selected. Finally, utilizing Lantronix’s system-on-module (SOM) solutions and engineering support, along with Qualcomm’s advanced processing technologies. |
| Outcome | Integrated components onto a precision-engineered 3-axis gimbal. This approach significantly reduced the OEM’s development timeline and resource allocation, enabling a quicker approach to market. |
Smart camera integration program
| Challenge | Scalable integration for future specialized sensor applications. |
| Solution | Expanding on our proven EO/IR camera integration expertise, Aerora can adapt to a broader range of sensor types and applications. Aerora’s flexible integration model utilizing Lantronix and Qualcomm SOM technologies as foundational building block, enabling rapid adaptation and deployment. This can now include the integration of specialized sensors such as multi-spectral cameras for agricultural monitoring and optical gas imaging (OGI) sensors for methane detection. |
| Outcome | Aerora’s NDAA-compliant manufacturing and end-to-end supply chain management then allows the OEM to deploy highly stable and reliable camera-gimbal solutions onto drones and ground robots, supporting critical missions like methane leak detection and crop health assessments as needed. |
