Product Overview
Different from most other gimbals, the Sky Eye-3HT-MU excels in thermal imaging — not only with its UHD 1280x1024 resolution, but also through its 3X optical and 8X digital zoom, capturing sharp and clear visuals even at night. Combined with its 2-axis gimbal, 4K wide-angle camera, built-in LRF, and AI tracking, the Sky Eye-3HT-MU delivers exceptional visual performance and elevates the nighttime drone surveillance to a new level.
Upgraded Thermal Imaging, See Through the Night
Built on an UHD 1280×1024 resolution, the thermal imaging of the 3HT-MU is enhanced with powerful zoom capabilities — 3X optical and 8X digital. Delivering long-distance imaging with sharp clarity and rich details, the 3HT-MU helps you see through the night.
4K Wide-Angle, See More in Every Frame
The 3HT-MU features a 4K (3840×2160) wide-angle lens that broadens your view, delivering vivid, richly detailed imagery across every scene.
5km LRF, Target Under Control
With its 5km laser rangefinder, the 3HT-MU locks onto targets accurately, providing real-time distance and altitude data with exceptional precision.
AI-Powered Targeting, Detection in Precision
Equipped with AI recognition and tracking, the 3HT-MU automatically identifies and follows suspicious vehicles and individuals, while transmitting accurate location data to the control center in real time.
2 Axis Gimbal, Flexible and All-Round
Designed with 2-axis gimbal, the 3HT-MU weighs 2.5kg and supports flexible yaw and pitch rotation, ensuring stable yet flexible footage in flight.
Fly By Camera, Autonomous Tracking
A surveillance VTOL can follow and monitor a stationary or moving target of interest along a routine patrol route if the onboard drone zoom camera tracks it. Additionally, the target's coordinates can be copied and shared with the command center. Once the monitoring is complete, the VTOL drone can return to its original patrol route.
Monitor Target Movement Status Via GCS
The pilot can use the LAUNCH GCS to monitor the target's movement status, such as real-time updated GPS coordinates, the distance between the target and the drone, as well as the distance between the target and the HOME position.
Fast Deploy & Easy Operation
Applying the self-developed YDPORT mechanism and YDLINK software, the 3HT-MU achieves both hassle-free assembly/disassembly and intuitive operation, making drone surveillance attainable and adaptable on most drones and VTOLs.
Anti-Scald Protection
The thermal imager in this gimbal camera features a built-in burn protection mechanism. It can withstand direct sun exposure for up to 30 seconds without permanent damage, recovering fully within 24 hours. This ensures reliable performance even in challenging conditions.
MAVLINK Compatible
The Sky Eye-3HT-MU drone gimbal is compatible with drones powered by PX4 and Ardupilot, making integration relatively convenient.
