EVO
Starpoint
TM
Positioning
System
functions through
Binocular Cameras
①
and
two
Ultrasonic Sensors
②
on
the bottom of the aircraft. The
sensors calculate the current
height of the aircraft using
ultrasound, and the camera
obtains location information
via image analysis. When
flying indoors or in another environment where a GPS signal is unavailable,
Starpoint
TM
Positioning System
allows the aircraft to hover in place precisely.
NOTE
• The
Starpoint
TM
Positioning System
is activated by default when the
aircraft is powered on.
• It works both in
GPS
and
ATTI
modes.
•
It is only enabled when the aircraft is between 0.5m and 10m above the
surface.
z
Forward Vision System & Rear Avoidance Sensors
The
Forward Vision System
on the front of the aircraft uses image data to
calculate the distance between the aircraft and potential obstacles. The system
will halt
EVO
’s forward progress when an obstacle is detected. Infrared sensors
detect motion and measure any heat being emitted by potential obstacles to the
rear of the aircraft.
TIPS
• Always keep the binocular camera lens clean.
• When the
Starpoint
TM
Positioning System
is activated, don’t use other
40KHz ultrasonic devices nearby, such as ultrasonic rangefinders, fault
detectors, cleaners or welding machines.
