Sony FCB camera block
SONY ILX-LR1 is a full-frame camera specially designed for the drone industry. How does it fit in well with drones? How are its appearance and functional features designed around the drone industry? Today, from five aspects for you to sort out in detail.
First, small and light
SONY ILX-LR1 camera is very small and lightweight, the body size is only about 100×74.0x42.5mm, the weight is about 243 grams light, such size and weight design, making it very suitable for installation on the UAV for high-altitude operation. Compared with traditional large cameras, ILX-LR1 not only does not have a significant impact on the flight performance of the UAV, but can reduce the load of the UAV and improve flight efficiency and stability.
In inspection and mapping tasks, the compact and lightweight nature of the SONY ILX-LR1 camera plays a very important role. Due to its small size, it is easier to be installed in various types of UAVs, which is convenient for users to flexibly adjust according to actual needs. At the same time, the light weight also reduces the energy consumption of the UAV during flight, prolonging the endurance time of the UAV, making the mission sustainable and improving the work efficiency.
What’s more, the SONY ILX-LR1 camera has remained small and light without sacrificing its performance. Instead, it uses a new BIONZ XR image processor and an efficient shooting method that not only captures high-resolution, high-quality image data, but also improves processor performance by about eight times and reduces processing latency. This enables ILX-LR1 to provide more accurate and detailed data acquisition results in UAV inspection and mapping missions, providing strong support for subsequent analysis and decision making.
Two, remote control
By integrating apis into the system, the SONY ILX-LR1 camera can be controlled remotely from a PC, allowing changes to camera Settings, shutter release, real-time view monitoring, and more. When manual focus is used, the current focus position can be retrieved and the focus adjusted to any desired location, resulting in highly reproducible and stable shots. The customer’s app can link the unique image ID to drone location data in post-processing.
Then through different modes, you can achieve remote access to SONY ILX-LR1 camera parameters and real-time adjustment, remote access to real-time images, users can directly monitor the display on the host side, remote read camera memory card image file information and transfer to the host and other operations.
Three, 61 million pixel imaging quality
The SONY ILX-LR1 is equipped with a full-frame backlight Exmor R™ CMOS image sensor of approximately 61 megapixels, a technological breakthrough that ensures the camera can capture details beyond imagination. Its excellent image quality and high-resolution imaging capabilities enable the UAV to provide more accurate and clear image data in tasks such as aerial photography, inspection and three-dimensional modeling. Whether it’s a tiny crack, scratch, or complex pipeline layout, the ILX-LR1 is presented with amazing clarity, providing powerful support for drone applications.
Fourth, strong scalability
The SONY ILX-LR1 has scalable features and a wide selection of E-bayonet lenses, allowing users to customize the configuration and optimization of the camera module according to the specific shooting task or the characteristics of the drone platform. This flexibility not only enhances the applicability of the camera, but also provides users with more creative space and possibilities. For example, in high-altitude aerial photography, users can choose a lens with wide-angle characteristics to capture a wider field of view; For detailed inspection, you can choose a lens with telephoto characteristics to capture distant details.
Five, professional interface and screw hole
SONY ILX-LR1 more professional interface and screw hole design to provide users with more expansion and design possibilities, the camera back design with USB Type-C interface and Micro HDMI interface, can meet the diverse needs of drone users.
Each of the six sides of the camera body has M3 screw holes, which means that users can mount the camera in different positions on top of drones, industrial equipment, robots or submersibles. This design not only improves the scalability and compatibility of ILX-LR1, but also provides users with more diverse ways to install and use it.
In conclusion, SONY ILX-LR1 with its extreme lightweight design, remote control function, 61 megapixel imaging quality, strong scalability and professional interface and screw design five features, not only can be highly adapted to the UAV, but also will successfully lead the innovation of the UAV industry. It not only improves the shooting effect and data collection efficiency of drones, but also provides strong support for the development of related industries.
