SPH engineering integrates impediment detection radar with DJI M300 RTK | sUAS Information

UgCS Built-in Programs group at SPH Engineering has formally launched the radar-based collision prevention system for the DJI M300 RTK drone. This newly built-in system works in any environmental situations the place built-in impediment sensors on DJI M300 RTK will fail: darkish, snow, rain, fog, vivid solar.

Impediment detection system for DJI M300 RTK drone features a 77GHz radar sensor, UgCS SkyHub {hardware}, and mountings developed by SPH Engineering in addition to UgCS software program help. Radar could detect obstacles in entrance of the drone at far distances, vary is as much as 40m.

‘Triggering distance is configurable in software program settings. When any impediment might be detected inside a set vary, RTH (return to residence) might be triggered. That is the one strong strategy to avoid wasting a drone in any situations, together with BLOS flights and on the moments the place reference to floor station was misplaced,’ Alexey Dobrovolskiy, CTO at SPH Engineering, feedback.

The applying areas of the system embrace however usually are not restricted to magnetic surveys. These sorts of missions are normally deliberate utilizing fixed altitude over the bottom floor considering common/most top of bushes/obstacles within the survey space. However the necessity to gather information with most decision and high quality conflicts with the security of the flight, and collision with bushes is essentially the most ‘in style’ purpose for drone crashes throughout magnetic surveys. New collision prevention programs could save very costly tools whereas nonetheless permitting the gathering of high-quality information.
