 Typical application example-Altimeter in plant protection UAVs


Plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle can be remote controlled, to prevent spraying workers from exposure to pesticide, which could ensure the safety of spraying operations, and the efficient and fast operations save a lot of manpower and resources. Plant protection unmanned aerial vehicle is required to maintain a minimum fixed height of 1 ~ 2m from the crops, without restrictions on terrain and height. According to the terrain, it could automatically set the height, and avoid the obstacles automatically by adjusting the height. 
NRA15 is an altimeter specially designed for plant protection UAVs. With its flexible installation position, it is suitable for all types of UAV platforms. It can accurately sense the height of UAVs and vegetation, and transmit the UAV data to UAV flight control system through UART serial port, to achieve and maintain the flight in the appropriate altitude to vegetation

FAQ:


1. Is the quote on Ali real?


-Yes, it is the sample price.


 


2.  Where is the installation location?


 -Usually installed below the aircraft for level height measurement.


 


3. Which interface it has?


-it has 2 interfances, CAN and UART. But it can't support at the same time.


 


4. Does it need an addition cooling radiator?


-No need.


 


5. How long is the warranty period?


-1 year free maintainence except human damage.


 


6. what is the difference between NRA15(30m) and NRA15(100m)


-The difference between NRA15-30m and 100m is range accuracy
NRA15-30m range accuracy is ±0.04(0.1-30m)
NRA15-100m range accuracy is ±0.1(0.5-30m); ±1(30-100m)


 


7.what is the difference with the other UAV radar(NRA24/MR72)


NRA24: 24GHz Alimeter Radar (0.1~50m/0.5~200m,more accurate )


NRA15: 24GHz Alimeter Radar (0.1~100m,more cheaper)


MR72: 77GHZ Collision Avoidance Radar(0.1~40m)
