4-axis gyro stabilised multi gimbal

This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Features

The all new four axis multi sensor gyro stabilised OTUS U-250 gimbal reaches an entirely new level of stabilisation due to a combination of purpose-built high-bandwidth torque motors and geared motors.

All electronics required for the advanced digital control fits within the unit shell. The user only has to connect external power, a video monitor and a joystick.

A three dimensional micro-mechanical IMU and a laser range finder mounted directly on the optical bench, allows for advanced features like geo-location and geo-positioning, provided an external heading source is connected to the OTUS-U250.

The powerful digital servo controller of the OTUS-U250 is even capable of providing enough computational power to drive optional features like vehicle control and navigation.

Handheld control unit
including cables

This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Features

The Handheld Control Unit (HCU) is used for manual control and monitoring of one OTUS Gimbal Unit at a time.

The HCU is intended for direct wired connection to the OTUS Gimbal Unit, or for connection to the OTUS Gimbal Unit via an external wireless link. The external wireless link must be capable of bilateral transmission of a serial data stream between the HCU and the Gimbal Unit, and unilateral transmission of an analogue video signal from the Gimbal Unit to the HCU.

Features

The Helimount Assembly is a mount optimized for mounting of the OTUS Gimbal Unit vertically, head-down, on the belly of a helicopter airframe.

The helimount is fine-tuned to meet customer specific requirements, provided the customer provides vibration spectra, or recorded acceleration data, valid for the mounting point on the airframe. If no specific vibration data is provided, the helimount will be optimized towards default data for a helicopter with a specified number of rotor blades and nominal rotor speed.
