WHY AA6

01 Long-range capture at altitude

Combining next-generation prism scanning technology with a high-grade inertial navigation system, the AA6 delivers a maximum ranging capability of up to 2,100 m and supports typical operating altitudes of 100–600 m AGL.

With such high-performance IMU

:: No need for strip adjust @ 120 m

:: HZ accuracy: 5 cm @ 120 m

:: V accuracy: 5 cm @ 120 m

:: No need for stationary before and after flight

:: Support flight-free calibration, but disabled by default, prepare for narrow area

02 Fifth-generation waveform and MTA

Multiple-time-around (MTA) processing capability corresponds to solving ability under high-AGL and high-PRR. The stronger the MTA capability, the farther the detectable distance will be. AA6 support real-time point clouds @ 2000 kHz PRR

03 High-grade IMU performance

Utilize advanced multi-target capabilities with up to 8 target echoes, enabling effective penetration of dense vegetation. Create accurate DEMs and DSMs in challenging environments with improved ground surface acquisition.

04 Flexible 25/100 MP imaging

Capture detailed imagery with the integrated camera.
Single camera version, AA6

:: M4/3 CMOS sensor size

:: Effective pixels: 25/100 MP

:: 12 mm focal length

:: 74° FOV

Generate high-resolution point clouds and orthomosaic outputs for superior 3D model reconstruction and realistic textures.
