The Z-1Mini carriers a 4K resolution visible light camera. Combined with the AI-ISP fullcolor night vision imaging engine and the AI-HDR imaging engine, can present clear fullcolor images wether in low-light environments or in complex lighting environments. Featuring AI multi-object detection and tracking, the Z-1Mini can constantly track one of the persons and vehicles intelligently identified in the image.
The Z-1Mini features a micro3-axis non-orthogonal mechanically stabilized structure, supporting both downward and upward installation. With the Dragonfly software, user can watch the image and control the pod without protocol ducking. Integrated with the XF-QGC software, it achieves comprehensive functionality compatibility with opensource autopilots.

Characteristics

· 4K-resolution visible light camera, powered by the AI-ISP full-color night vision imaging engine, delivers clear full-color images in low-light environments. Featuring AI-HDR, it ensures both highlights and shadow details remain vividly visible even in complex lighting scenarios with extreme brightness contrasts.

· Features AI multi-object detection and tracking, which can constantly track one of the persons and vehicles intelligently identified in the image.

· Micro 3-axis nonorthogonal mechanical stabilized structure reducing the weight down to 69g.

· Supports network, UART and S.BUS control and compatible with both private protocol and MAVLink protocol.

· Thanks to the Dual-IMU complementary algorithms with IMU temperature control and carrier AHRS fusion, the gimbal 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, and download photos and videos online as well.

· With the XF-QGC software, all the functions of the pod can be achieved in conjunction with an open source autopilot.

· Screen supports overlaying OSD information. Image supports EXIF saving. Live video stream and recording supports SEI saving. (The SEI functionality will be supported via subsequent firmware updates)

· 10~26.4 VDC wide voltage input.
