Description

Beacon V1.1 (w/ enclosure)

Now is the time to get started on your your Precision Landing project: charging stations, persistent flight systems, package delivery, landing safety systems, and more. We can’t wait to see your creations!

The IR Beacon is optimized for UAV Precision Landing applications. The modulated IR signal and the latest IR-LOCK Sensor firmware are designed to distinguish your Beacon from IR interferences. This high-power Beacon can be reliably detected at over 45 ft in most lighting conditions*. Attach the IR-LOCK Sensor to your UAV, and place your Beacon where you want to land. (see Documentation for details and examples)

*It is recommended that you remove reflective objects from the landing area. If you need to operate with the absolute highest level of detection reliability in all environments, use the MarkOne Beacon.  

Are you planning for large-scale production? Great! Board-level Beacons will be made available for integration into your products and projects. Contact us to inquire about bulk/custom orders.
