HoodTech Vision shows Alticam 05-EO5 imaging payload at AUVSI 2014
ORLANDO, Fla., 13 May 2014. HoodTech Vision, a manufacturer of stabilized imaging payloads for small unmanned and manned systems, is demonstrating the Alticam 05-EO5, a 4-axis stabilized imaging payload for small to medium unmanned aircraft systems (UAS) at AUVSI’s Unmanned Systems 2014 in Orlando, Fla. (booth #847).
Based on HoodTech Vision’s latest EO imaging technology, the Alticam 05-EO5 features a four-axis stabilized gimbal system with coordinate hold mode and embedded video stabilization and tracking functions. The pan-over-tilt payload turret is vibration-isolated with a slew rate of 50 degrees/per second. With dual-mode operation, network/serial and analog (video), the 05 turret includes an embedded video server and an optional network interface.
The new Alticam 05-EO5 is a drop-in replacement for HoodTech’s Alticam 06 and Alticam 07 models, offering better optics and improved stabilization.
