Benefits That Drive Unprecedented Accuracy and Skyrocket Research Potential

This isn't just a sensor; it's a transformative investment in your research potential, data integrity, and ultimate success, offering:

• Gain Science-Grade Multispectral and High-Resolution RGB Imagery: The 6X Sensor delivers science-grade multi-band and high-resolution visual band image products. It features five simultaneously triggered, precision-filtered 3.2MP global-shutter imagers and one 20.1MP RGB imager. This powerful combination ensures you're capturing highly accurate spectral data for in-depth analysis of plant health, alongside crisp visual context, providing comprehensive insights for truly informed decision-making.
• Achieve Unmatched Data Fidelity with Radiometric Accuracy: The sensor produces eight channels of image data with high radiometric accuracy. This means your measurements are scientifically reliable and repeatable, crucial for robust comparative analysis over time and across different sites. With real-time onboard multi-layer image registration and advanced analytics, you get immediate delivery of actionable data, ensuring confidence in your findings that can withstand the rigors of peer review.
• Maximize Efficiency with High-Speed, Ample Storage: The 6X boasts a fast frame rate performance, with a 3 frame per second minimum sustained capture rate (up to 5fps), and 512GB internal PCIe NVMe storage. This high-speed capture and generous storage capacity enable longer flights and cover more area, significantly boosting your operational efficiency and allowing you to collect vast amounts of critical data swiftly.
• Streamline Your Workflow for Seamless Integration: Designed for a streamlined, easy-to-use, data processing workflow, the 6X offers simple integration to drone platforms. It's MAVLINK compatible and supports options like ambient color correction, ensuring that your data products are optimized for manipulation and distribution. This minimizes technical hurdles and allows you to focus on analysis, not complex setup.
• Unlock Deeper Insights for Proactive Management: By providing granular data on seed performance, disease, weed pressure, and nutrition, the 6X empowers you to make proactive and precise interventions. This leads to optimized resource allocation, reduced waste, and ultimately, healthier, more productive outcomes for your agricultural endeavors and environmental stewardship efforts.

The Advantage of Superior Design, Flexible Connectivity, and Robust Performance

The Sentera 6X Multispectral Sensor stands out with its intelligent design and unwavering commitment to operational excellence:

• Precision Optics with Dedicated Paths: Each of the five multispectral imagers and the RGB imager feature a dedicated, high-quality optical path. This meticulous design ensures exceptional clarity, minimal distortion, and accurate spectral separation for every pixel, guaranteeing the integrity of your data.
• Lightweight and Compact for Optimal Drone Performance: Weighing only 290 grams and with compact dimensions, the 6X sensor is incredibly lightweight. This minimizes payload impact on your drone (whether you integrate it with an existing gimbal or your own custom solution), allowing for extended flight times and maintaining optimal flight dynamics.
• Completely Configurable Image Pipeline: The 6X offers a completely configurable image pipeline, allowing you to tailor the sensor's output and processing to your specific research requirements. This flexibility ensures the sensor meets your unique needs every step of the way, making it an incredibly adaptable tool.
• Versatile Interfaces for Seamless Data Transfer: Equipped with USB-C and Gigabit Ethernet interfaces, along with UART outputs for U-blox, MAVLINK, and DJI A3 metadata, the sensor provides robust and flexible options for data transfer and command/control. It also includes pulse per second (PPS) and shutter event outputs for precise synchronization.
• Integrated GPS and Light Sensor Support: The sensor supports an external Light Sensor (55g) with integrated GPS (included in the kit, even if the main sensor SKU is "No Gimbal") which ensures accurate radiometric calibration by accounting for varying ambient light conditions during flights. This integrated approach ensures consistent and reliable data across different missions.
• Warranty: Manufacturer warranty included.
