Precise Target Control
Real-time target ranging up to 5 km, combined with AI-powered recognition and auto-tracking. The Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 ensures continuous target awareness, minimizing the risk of target loss even in complex and dynamic environments.
4K Wide-Angle
Expanded Field of View
With a 3840x2160 resolution and a 125° diagonal FOV wide-angle lens, the Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 delivers an ultra-wide field of view, enabling full-area visibility and enhanced coverage of large areas, effectively reducing mission time.
3-Axis Gimbal
Plug-and-Play Integration
Designed with a quick-release mechanism, the 3-axis Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 enables tool-free installation and a secure physical connection,streamlining deployment while ensuring stable imaging in operation.
UAV, UGV, USV Compatible
All-Round Imaging Support
Featuring a stabilized gimbal platform, long-range zoom, clear day-and-night observation, and intelligent target detection and tracking, our gimbal cameras integrate seamlessly with UAVs, ground vehicles, marine vessels, and robotic platforms, delivering dependable imaging support for a wide range of industrial missions.
Designated Control System
Compatible to MAVLink
Powered by the in-house YDlink camera control software, the Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 supports MAVLink protocol and integrates with PX4 and ArduPilot flight control systems, enabling real-time telemetry, video transmission, and precise command execution for efficient and reliable aerial operations.
Highly Resilient in Harsh Environments
Equipped with built-in thermal sensor protection, the Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 operates within a temperature range of -10°C to 55°C and withstands up to 30 seconds of direct sunlight exposure, ensuring reliable performance across diverse operating environments.
Target Tracking via Coordinated Camera-Drone Control
Through integration with the camera and drone control system, the Storm Eye-40IE-HTM50 enables the drone to automatically adjust its flight path to follow the target. This ensures synchronized operation between the camera and the drone, maintaining readiness for real-time execution of target-related commands.
