Heli-Expo 2017: UAV camera systems offered to helicopter market
Enstrom Helicopters has partnered with aerial imagery provider Vertivue to promote the new Skybox stabilised camera system on the 480B helicopter at Heli-Expo 2017.
The Skybox allows gimballed camera systems developed for small UAVs to be effectively integrated on the nose of a helicopter, at a drastically reduced cost to the installation of a more complex gimballed system developed specifically for larger aircraft.
Offering camera systems such as DJI's X5R and Z30 cameras, the Skybox features a heavy-duty gyro that eliminates the vibration from the helicopter, allowing the on-board operator to capture sharp and clear images.
