DRS accredits Aquila Micro UAV payload
Liteye Systems' new Aquila Micro has become the first commercial UAV thermal payload to receive DRS Technologies' 'Powered by DRS' accreditation, it was announced on 9 June.
Aquila Micro was developed by Liteye Systems and Unmanned Experts, and uses Tamarisk thermal imaging camera cores from DRS Technologies. The payload was developed to be easily integrated with UAVs to provide advanced thermal image clarity. It is the first product in Liteye Systems' new line of UAV thermal imaging payloads.
According to the company, the accreditation is available to only those original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) collaborating with DRS Technologies. Its range of infrared camera modules, detectors and other parts can be added into OEM products.
Tom Scott, president, Liteye Systems, said: 'We are very proud that all our efforts have been rewarded by becoming the very first UAV payload to receive the coveted Powered by DRS accreditation.'
