Forlinx Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 Product Background With the rapid development and widespread application of drone technology, drone-mounted hyperspectral imaging systems that integrate drone platforms with high-precision spectral imaging technology are gradually gaining attention. The drone-mounted hyperspectral imaging system can measure spectral information of plants, water bodies, soil, etc., in real-time and generate spectral images. By analyzing these images, it is possible to establish relationships with the physicochemical properties of plants and use the data for research on plant classification and growth conditions. Additionally, it has applications in geological and mineral resource exploration, forest pest and disease monitoring, meteorological studies, and other industry fields. Product Features Hyperspectral resolution: Capable of capturing hundreds of continuous and narrow spectral bands, enabling detailed spectral characterization of surface materials. High spatial resolution: Combined with the flexibility and stability of the drone platform, this enables high-resolution imaging of ground targets. Intelligent data processing: Integrates advanced image processing algorithms and spectral analysis software, supporting rapid processing and interpretation of data. Portability and ease of use: The equipment is lightweight and portable, making it easy to mount on drone platforms, while the user interface is user-friendly, simplifying operation for users. Broader application scenarios: Suitable for environmental monitoring, agricultural surveys, geological exploration and other fields, meeting the needs of different users. Product Requirements: 1. Compact carrier board design: Considering the weight and space constraints of the drone, the accompanying imaging device needs to be designed as compactly as possible. The carrier board design should be compact, effectively utilizing every inch of space while ensuring that all key components can be securely installed. The size of the SoM should also be strictly controlled to fit the compact carrier board layout, without sacrificing its performance. 2. High compression ratio image compression algorithm: The product should incorporate a proprietary high compression ratio image compression algorithm to optimize the storage and transmission efficiency of image data. The algorithm needs to fully leverage the computational power of the SoM to ensure that excessive performance loss does not occur during image compression. The compression algorithm should minimize file size while maintaining image quality to accommodate the limited data transmission bandwidth and storage space of drones. 3. High-quality product stability: Given the complexity of the product application environment, such as extreme weather and mechanical vibrations, the requirements for product quality and stability are extremely high. All components and materials shall be of industrial grade or higher quality to ensure proper operation in a variety of harsh environments. Products shall be subjected to rigorous tests for shock, impact and weather resistance to verify their reliability in complex application environments.
