Designed for governmental applications, the ANAFI USA GOV RGB/Thermal Drone with Skycontroller USA from Parrot is NDAA/TAA compliant and provides government operators with a compact solution focused on quality, durability, and security. The foldable and compact drone is small enough to be launched and recovered from your hand, with a polyamide and carbon fiber body able to withstand extreme temperatures, rain, wind, and more. The dual camera system is made to record 4K HDR visual videos and accurate thermal imaging, and it uses 32x zoom for observing targets up to 1.24 miles away. All of this is controllable by the Skycontroller USA remote, with a built-in 8" display and 720p video streaming, Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) connection, and up to 4.5 hours of battery life.
Camera System
Visual Camera
As part of the 3-axis gimbal with hybrid stabilization, the visual camera of the ANAFI USA GOV is capable of recording 4K HDR from wide-angle to telephoto, thanks to a 32x zoom system. This allows for observation of subjects and objects from up to 1.24 miles away. The zoom is continuous, with up to 5x lossless zoom in 4K resolution, up to 10x in 1080p, up to 15x in 720p, and up to 27x in 480p. Additional features include:
- Low dispersion aspheric lens
- Angular resolution for clarity while zooming
- See 4" details from up to 0.93 miles away
- See 0.4" details from up to 164 yards away
- Optical unit is assembled using active alignment for optimal focus and resolution performance
Thermal Camera
As part of the 3-axis gimbal with hybrid stabilization, the thermal camera of the ANAFI USA GOV is capable of detecting centimetric hot spots from up to 131.2' away. Using FLIR Boson 320, this thermal imaging is essential when inspecting industrial sites. Choose from Fusion, Rainbow, White Hot, and Black Hot color and black & white palettes. The resolution is 320 x 256, but with IR/visible blending, thermal images are blended with a visual version to compensate, resulting in 720p images and video with increased details and contrast. Additionally, Thermal Analyzer Mode (as part of FreeFlight 6 USA) can be used to make a quick thermal analysis and give you full control over the on-screen rendering of any photo or video. Additional features include:
- Cold/hot thermography color modes
- 50° horizontal FOV
- GPS-lapse, time-lapse, and single-photo modes
Compact and Durable Airframe
The 1.1 lb compact and foldable airframe is small enough to take off and land in the palm of your hand or moving vehicle, only taking roughly one minute to unpack and deploy. Powerful 46W motors with a 70% yield and intricately designed propeller blades achieve improved thrust and stability vs. other similar drones in the category. The entire system supports flight speeds and wind resistance up to 33 mph. The polyamide body is reinforced with carbon fiber, offering significant resistance to rain, impacts, dust, and high/low temperatures. Additional features include:
- Easy propeller replacement without tools or hardware
- IP53-rated dust/water resistance
- Zero no-flight zone limitations
Enterprise-Grade Security
Your data is intended to remain safe and secure when using the ANAFI USA GOV. The optional SD card data is encrypted with an AES-XTS 512-bit key, and the signals between the drone and controller are protected by WPA2. The OS is protected with access available to any embedded system, software updates are digitally signed, and all default settings are made to send no data.
Skycontroller USA
Operation of the ANAFI USA Gov is ready to go right out of the box without the need for an additional phone or tablet. The controller features a large, built-in 8" display based on the Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablet. Connection to the drone is based on Wi-Fi 4 (802.11n) connectivity, which can provide a live video feed from the drone at HD 720p resolution, in addition to essential telemetry information. Ready for rugged environments, the Skycontroller USA is IP53-rated for water and dust resistance. On a full charge, you get up to 4.5 hours of operation time from its 5000mAh battery.
