Eclipse: Autonomous Mapping System
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. Lidar and image data are captured on a single removable SSD cartridge for fast and efficient data transfer to Optech Lidar Mapping Suite (LMS).

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).
