Dynamic UAV Solutions used the Commercial UAV Expo in Las Vegas as a launching platform for the Sentera Omni, a quad-rotor able to capture data from virtually any angle: up, down and all around.

The Omni quad-rotor UAV allows for data capture with an unprecedented field of view, giving users visibility to almost an impossible-to-reach asset such as under a bridge, or bottom of antenna connection.  To achieve that goal the Omni naturally partners with a gimbaled Sentera Double 4K Sensor – creating an easy-to-use, precise UAV package for the Inspection, Survey and Mapping, and Agriculture industries.

Dynamic UAV, which is Sentera’s exclusive North American distribution partner, says that the Omni drone with Sentera gimbaled sensor is “disruptive technology”, that empowers users to collect precise data from obscure angles, as an Omni + Double 4K Sensor package simultaneously captures macro and micro data, and provides the user with true distortion-free imagery, ideal for stitching.

The Omni UAV is available in Inspection and Agriculture packages. Each standard package ships with one drone, one installed Double 4K Sensor, two batteries, and a durable hard-sided case. The Inspection Double 4K sensor features dual zoom lens and the Agriculture Double 4K sensor simultaneously captures high-resolution color and near-infrared (NIR) data.

The Omni package is an example of the importance of lightweight drones. Weighing only eight pounds, the drone is easy to fly and extremely versatile, as it can carry multiple sensor options for up to 25 minutes of flight. Payload compatibility includes Sentera Double 4K, DJI Zenmuse X3, Z3, XT, and the new Z30. “We’re proud that the remarkability of the Omni UAV goes well beyond capturing data from unique angles. The data created when using this package is superior to anything else available today,” said  Dan O’Reilly, General Manager for Dynamic UAV Solutions.

Integral to the Omni UAV versatility is pairing it with the Sentera Double 4K Sensor. Featuring leading-edge data-processing technology, combined with a vibration-muting gimbal, Double 4K data is precise – assets are in the place they are supposed to be, and images are impeccably crisp. The dual zoom levels allow users to review a wide-angle field of view (FOV) to audit a structure for example, then instantly see 12MP of detail with the narrow-angle lens. For agriculture applications, operators simultaneously capture high-resolution color, NIR and normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) data – providing growers with precise crop-health imagery.
