In security patrol applications for quadruped robot dogs, the ability to operate in extremely dark environments is a key performance indicator. During a recent new product development phase, a technology company specializing in hydrological environmental monitoring mounted ALLXF’s Z-1Pro Intelligent Black Light Full-Color Night Vision Micro Gimbal Camera on a quadruped robot dog and conducted a night-vision performance comparison test against a number of similar products on the market.
Test Results: Z-1Pro Delivers Superior Night-Vision Image Quality in Side-by-Side Comparison
The Z-1Pro Intelligent Black Light Full-Color Night Vision Micro Gimbal Camera features an 1/1.8-inch CMOS sensor, combined with an AI-ISP full-color night vision imaging engine and an f/1.0 large aperture. It can output clear, low-noise, highly color-accurate full-color images in ultra-low-light conditions as low as 0.001 lux. In this comparison test, under the same lighting conditions, some comparable products showed noticeable image noise and severe loss of detail in dark areas, making it nearly impossible to see the scene clearly.
Hydrological Environmental Monitoring Customer: Night-Vision Performance Is Central to Product Selection
The company said that during its product selection process, it purchased a number of mainstream gimbal products available on the market, mounted them on the same quadruped robot dog, ran them at the same speed and along the same route, and recorded footage simultaneously for comparison.
“In our tests, the Z-1Pro stood out in night-vision imaging. We work in hydrological environmental monitoring, and many of our operations take place at night or in low-light conditions. Whether the image is clear enough directly determines whether the data is useful. At night, the Z-1Pro delivers images much closer to daytime viewing, making it a better fit for our needs among this group of products,” said a project lead at the company.
Inspection Capabilities of the Z-1Pro Gimbal Camera on a Quadruped Robot Dog
The Z-1Pro gimbal camera weighs as low as 100g. When mounted on a robot dog, it adds virtually no extra burden. During running, moving up and down stairs, climbing, and obstacle avoidance, the Z-1Pro gimbal camera relies on its non-orthogonal 3-axis mechanical stabilization structure to keep footage stable and smooth at all times. In scenarios such as nighttime industrial parks, underground utility tunnels, and riverbank monitoring, the Z-1Pro’s black light full-color night-vision capability enables the robot dog to overcome “night-time blind spots” and supports all-weather, all-scene unmanned operations.
About ALLXF’s Z-1Pro Intelligent Black Light Full-Color Night Vision Micro Gimbal Camera
The Z-1Pro Intelligent Black Light Full-Color Night Vision Micro Gimbal Camera is independently developed by ALLXF. It integrates an ultra-starlight sensor, black light full-color night vision, AI multi-object detection & tracking, and 3-axis mechanical stabilization. It is compatible with various carrier platforms, including robot dogs, FPV fixed-wing aircraft, multirotor UAVs, and remote-controlled vehicles, making it a cost-effective choice for industrial robot integrators in night-vision applications.
