Description

  • The Z-9B is a professional EO/IR UAV payload integrating a high-precision 3-axis non-orthogonal gimbal, a 120× hybrid zoom camera, a long-wave thermal camera, a laser rangefinder, and a laser illumination module. Combining visible-light and thermal imaging, it enables reliable target observation, identification, and thermal analysis in both day and night operations. The powerful zoom camera supports long-range target recognition, while the thermal camera provides accurate heat-source detection in darkness, smoke, haze, and other low-visibility environments.
  • Equipped with an integrated laser rangefinder and laser illumination module, the Z-9B can accurately measure target distance and capture clear images even in complete darkness. The system also features AI multi-object detection and tracking technology, enabling intelligent identification of people and vehicles and continuous real-time tracking of selected targets. Advanced AI algorithms improve target recognition accuracy and tracking stability, ensuring reliable performance in complex operational environments.
  • The Z-9B supports tool-free installation on multiple UAV platforms and can be mounted downward or upward. With the GCU and Dragonfly software, users can view live video streams and control the payload in real time from a computer. Ideal for drone surveillance, public safety, search and rescue, industrial inspection, perimeter security, law enforcement, emergency response, and ISR missions, the Z-9B combines thermal imaging, AI tracking, laser ranging, night vision, and long-range zoom capabilities in a compact, versatile, and efficient UAV payload solution.

Characteristics:

  • Features AI multi-object detection and tracking, which can constantly track one of the persons and vehicles intelligently identified in the image.
  • Carries an 120x hybrid zoom camera, a thermal camera and a laser range finder.
  • Laser lighting module ensures the cameras getting a clear image even in complete darkness.
  • 3-axis orthogonal mechanical stabilized structure, is able to spin continually around its yaw axis.Supports network, UART and S.BUS control.
  • Supports both private protocol and MAVlink protocol.
  • Thanks to the Dual-IMU complementary algorithms with IMU temperature control and carrier AHRS fusion, the Z-9B provides a stabilization accuracy at ±0.01°.
  • Can be mounted onto multiple carriers, whether downward or upward.
  • With the Dragonfly software, user can watch the image and control the pod without protocol ducking.
  • Photos and videos can be downloaded online through the “Gallery” function of the Dragonfly software.
  • With the customized QGC software, all the functions of the pod can be achieved in conjunction with an open source autopilot.
  • Screen supports overlaying OSD information such as latitude, longitude and altitude. Image supports shooting point coordinate EXIF save. Video stream supports SEI stacking.
  • 20~53 VDC wide voltage input.
