· 120x hybrid zoom camera, combined with the 1/1.8-inch ultra-starlight image sensor and AI-ISP full-color night vision imaging engine, can present clear full-color images in extremely low-light environments, delivering night vision-level low-light imaging experience. The Z-6N also features superior HDR capability, ensuring both highlights and shadow details remain clearly visible even in complex lighting environments with strong contrast between bright and dark areas.
· Features AI multi-object detection and tracking, which can constantly track one of the persons and vehicles intelligently identified in the image.
· 3-axis orthogonal mechanical stabilized structure. The gimbal is able to spin continually around its yaw axis.
· 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)
· 20~53 VDC wide voltage input.
