The birth of a drone that realizes “What users want now.”
A system designed to reflect the user’s perspective and realizing a long flight that creates all possibilities.
A drone that brings together our experience and know-how, such as weight balance that realizes stable and unwavering flight, is born here.
Please experience the drone that pursues the sense of security and user satisfaction that only Japanese-made product can provide.
HYBRID DRONE
Realize overwhelming flying range.
Hybrid drone with a Japanese range extender
GLOW.H is a hybrid drone equipped with an extender developed to extend the range of electric vehicles.
By constantly charging the built-in battery while flying, it can fly for incomparably longer time than conventional battery-powered drones.
It can fly for 3 hours without a payload and can fly for 2 hours with the TDOT series, which is equivalent to a manned helicopter.
Therefore, it can survey a wide area at once without worrying about running out of battery.
In addition, the drone only needs to be refueled with mixed gasoline in order to fly, there is no need to charge or replace the battery, which was a hindrance to the efficiency of the survey work, and the labor of the field work is greatly reduced.
For the extender, a compact Japanese-made extender that combines durability and quietness, developed by O.S. ENGINES MFG.CO.,LTD.
FLIGHT CONTROLLER
Adopted Pixhawk for the flight controller which is the brain of the drone
The open source Pixhawk is adopted as a flight controller that manages information such as autopilot function, payload management, battery management, and controls the attitude and speed of the aircraft to achieve stable flight.
Open source code allows for easy customization and ensures long-term, reliable user interaction and maintenance.
QGC for GLOW
GLOW dedicated control application is standard equipment
Supporting autopilot without know-how
Centralized management of troublesome flight diaries
Drone settings, control settings, display and execution of flight plans, a secure fail-safe system, and telemetry to check every detail of the aircraft’s condition, all intuitively controlled.
Easy to operate, regardless of the operator’s skill level.
Supports output from the records of “UAV flight records”, “Daily inspection records”, and “Inspection maintenance records” specified by the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism.
It can manage the troublesome flight diary records centrally.
LTE
Support for LTE as standard
Support for remote operation outside of radio communication range
GLOW series is equipped with LTE module as standard.
This allows the system to switch to LTE communication even if communication with the transmitter is cut off, allowing to continue acquiring aircraft information and remote control.
GLOW.H, which can fly for a long time, can be equipped with optional satellite telemetry that enables to continue operation even if LTE communication is cut off.
NVIDIA JETSON
NVIDIA JETSON as standard
AI machine learning, high-load image processing, autopilot system, and other unique processing at will
It comes standard with the single-board computer “NVIDIA JETSON” equipped with a high-performance GPU that can execute heavy-duty processes such as AI machine learning, image recognition systems, and autonomous driving processing.
GLOW.H can execute a variety of processes envisioned by engineers.
PAYLOAD
Equipped with quick release Easy to attach and detach TDOT series
Equipped with a quick release system that can be attached and detached with one touch so that it can be quickly equipped with “TDOT” series of laser scanner systems dedicated to drones for quick flight.
Equipment such as visible camera and thermography camera can also be attached.
