Features:

  • High Image Quality and Spectral Fidelity
  • Low Smile, Keystone, and Stray Light
  • Compact and Lightweight
  • Geo-Rectified Image Data using Attitude/Position Data
  • Data Aqcuisition and Interface Software
  • Fits into a Wide Variety of Payload Configurations
  • Self-Contained and Easy to Integrate
  • Non-ITAR GPS/IMU option available


Airborne imaging systems can be quite complex.  Answers to the following commonly asked questions may provide basic understanding of Airborne Hyperspectral imaging:

1  How much does an Airborne Hyperspectral Imager system cost?
Our most simple UAV airborne system scanning spectral ranges of 400-900nm costs approximately $30,000-$40,000; complex systems may cost much more. *

* These are estimates for systems.  Individual imagers for other applications are typically much less expensive.  See specific product information for applications other than Airborne.

2  How much will your Imager / Flight Computer package weigh?
An Imager and Flight Computer, without power supply, typically weigh less than 6 lbs (2.72 kgs).

3   Is Resonon’s Airborne System small enough to fit in an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV)? 
Resonon builds one of the market’s smallest, lightest (less than 6 lbs; 2 kg) Airborne Hyperspectral imaging packages for use on both UAV and Manned platforms.
