SIYI ZT6 Mini Optical Pod Dual Sensor FPV HD Camera
SIYI ZT6 Mini Optical Pod is a compact and lightweight dual-sensor gimbal camera designed for use in drones. It combines an 8MP optical sensor capable of recording in 4K Ultra HD resolution and a thermal imaging sensor with a resolution of 640 x 512 pixels. The system supports 6x digital zoom and is equipped with a three-axis stabilizer for better image stability. It offers multiple video output options, including Ethernet, HDMI and CVBS, and is compatible with ArduPilot and PX4 flight control systems via the Mavlink protocol.
Why choose SIYI ZT6 Mini Optical Pod?
- Thermal camera with high resolution 640 x 512 points
Ideal for detecting heat traces, identifying temperature anomalies and monitoring thermal changes in real time. Applications include search and rescue, firefighting, industrial inspection and environmental monitoring.
- 4K Ultra HD recording and photography
Provides sharp and detailed images for professional-level images. Ideal for aerial photography, inspections and detailed visual analysis.
- Split Image, Synchronized Zoom
Improves situational awareness by allowing operators to compare visual and thermal data simultaneously. Synchronized zoom ensures that both perspectives focus on the same point of interest.
- 540 degree yaw axis rotation
Ensures coverage of a wide area without having to change the position of the drone. This feature is particularly useful for tasks such as large-scale inspection, reconnaissance and moving target tracking.
- Nose Mode
A gimbal orientation that keeps the camera flush with the front of the drone. It ensures that the camera is always pointing in the direction of the drone's movement, making it easier to match the visualization with the flight path.
- Upside Down Mode
A mode in which the camera is turned upside down, allowing operation in confined or unconventional spaces. Ideal for scenarios where the drone must operate under bridges, inside tunnels or in areas with limited vertical clearance.
