Sensor Management Unit

SMU panel interface

Downloads

The Sensor Management Unit consists of a rack mounted package with interface for up to six (6) Kinematic Camera Modules and one GPS/IMU subsystem (user specified; not included with SMU). Multiple SMUs can be added together to share a single GPS/IMU/timing subsystem with an arbitrary number of imaging devices. Each camera data stream incorporates geo-metadata from the GPS/IMU.

Features

The Sensor Management Unit controls all imaging modules and spatial sensors, and provides timing control and distribution of exterior orientation data.

  • Geo-Metadata tagging
  • Spatial Processing
  • Network Distribution via Gig-Ethernet
  • Scalable by adding SMU slices
