What is an IMU? An Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) is an electronic device that measures acceleration and rotation using accelerometers and gyroscopes. In drones, IMUs work together with GNSS and other sensors to accurately estimate the position and attitude of the unmanned vehicle and are used as the main positioning sensor in situations in which […]
Sensor calibration is of great importance for drones and eVTOL to maximize the accuracy and reliability in the operation. Once the sensors are integrated, it is necessary to perform a correct calibration to obtain the maximum performance and achieve the highest accuracy in the system. Reasons for sensor calibration in drones The main reason […]
Forest fires are incidents that have always happened due to natural phenomena. However, nowadays, the main cause of forest fires is humans. Improving the prevention, extinguishing, and recovery of damaged areas is a purpose in which we must progress. Drones against fire Drones help to prevent forest fires and monitor them during extinguishing. […]
Veronte Control Station PCS is a control station system optimized for the control of drones and UAVs for operations in outdoor use, harsh environments, and extreme weather conditions. With a size of only 160 x 360 x 70 mm, its IP66 protection and a working temperature range of -40 to 65ºC, it has positioned itself […]
Vibrations play a significant role in the integration of the autopilot in an aircraft. It is essential to pass various simulations and tests in order to find the best insulation and filter combination that guarantees system performance. From Embention, we have summarized the steps to analyze the vibrations in autopilots. Vibrations and natural […]
One of the current problems in big cities is pollution. There are numerous places with high levels of pollution, exceeding the maximum levels established. Many of these problems come from agglomerations and congestion on their roads. New proposals are constantly coming out to stop it. One of the initiatives comes from the acronym UAM (Urban […]
Obtaining the most accurate information about the UAV position and attitude anywhere in the world and in all weather conditions is a fundamental factor in unmanned aerial vehicles. Therefore, it is essential to understand what types of advanced GNSS uses systems exist and their functions. Depending on both the characteristics and functions of the UAV, […]
