Description

The Teledyne Optech Eclipse is an autonomous airborne system focusing on operatorless data collection on low-cost platforms. Eclipse is designed specifically for the efficient data collection of smaller project areas and corridor applications, requiring only a pilot for navigation. Eclipse combines an eye-safe, high-performance, 1.5-micron laser with a high-accuracy automatic imaging system for effortless collection of high-resolution lidar data and imagery via its innovative sensor motion detection system. Lidar and image data are captured on a single removable SSD cartridge for fast and efficient data transfer to Optech Lidar Mapping Suite (LMS).
