Is Your Research UAV as Flexible as the P450?

• The algorithm verification card was deployed on the platform, the sensor access was complex, the interfaces were not unified, and the debugging made no progress all day long.

• There are too few functional demos, limited expansion, and limited custom development, which restricts the rapid iteration of the algorithm.

• It cannot fly outdoors, indoor localization is unstable, and the experimental pace is severely restricted.

• The machine is too fragile and difficult to adjust. It takes one hour to fly and two hours to adjust.

Are these pitfalls you have stepped on? The good news is that P450 has filled in all these pitfalls.

Summarize P450 in one sentence

It can be said that P450 is a "flying" scientific research laboratory Prometheus450 (referred to as P450) is a medium-sized wheelbase scientific research UAV with a smart body and strong scalability. The modular design is equipped with rich interfaces and can easily adapt to a variety of sensors. It has rich demo functions and can be flexibly combined. It is equipped with a complete Prometheus tool chain and can be used for custom development out of the box.
Multiple versions available for flexible selection carry Binocular depth camera or Photoelectric pod, combine SpireCV Achieve instant recognition and intelligent tracking of targets; equipped with 3D LiDAR, FAST-LIO three-dimensional SLAM combined with EGO-Swarm path planning, easily realize real-time mapping and obstacle avoidance of complex environments; the professional ground control station controls maps, tracks and parameters on one screen, and can be used out of the box, making custom development more convenient and efficient.

How flexible is it?

Doing scientific research with P450 is like building Lego.The functional modules of P450 are like "scientific building blocks" that can be freely and flexibly combined according to task requirements. The localization system supports indoor and outdoor dual-mode switching, the obstacle avoidance sensor can be equipped with Mid360 or D435i, and the RGB camera can be flexibly equipped with D435i or professional pod camera. Users can freely combine sensor solutions according to different scientific research scenarios and task requirements.Realize rapid replacement and reconstruction of functional modules. This highly flexible combination greatly improves P450's adaptability in multiple scenarios and tasks, truly realizing "One machine for multiple uses, plug and fly”, scientific research deployment is more efficient and free.

Easily switch between indoor and outdoor scenes

• indoor mode
  Equipped with MID-360 LiDAR and running FAST-LIO 3D laser SLAM, it can still achieve centimeter-level localization in corridors, laboratories or warehouses with complex lighting, saying goodbye to "GPS blind spots".

• outdoor mode
  Integrated RTK localization module provides high-precision localization in open environments, ensuring more stability outdoors.

• One click switch
  Through the Prometheus professional version ground control station, users can freely switch localization sources according to scenarios.
  
  

Rich function demo

• Target click tracking
  Through the YOLOv5 detection algorithm, self-training data sets or COCO general models can be loaded: Once the target is selected, NanoTrack immediately takes over the pod and follows it smoothly; and the target dynamic distance tracking can be switched through the Prometheus professional version ground control station.
  
  

• Ego-Swarm
  Through the EGO-Swarm path planning algorithm, dynamic obstacles are analyzed in real time,2 m/s While maneuvering to avoid, quickly adapt and track the dynamically adjusted target point. Cooperate with the professional version of ground control station to realize independent three-dimensional dynamic path planning. Let UAV show extraordinary flexibility and adaptability in unknown and complex environments.

Open, scalable, research-friendly platform

• Open architecture, flexible expansion
  P450 has a variety of data interfaces, which not only can easily mount a variety of sensors, but also supports a variety of communication protocols, system platforms and simulation environments, truly realizing all-round expansion from hardware to software.
  
  

• Equipped with the Prometheus tool chain to quickly get started with custom development Combined with the UAV control sub-module of the Prometheus software system, the P450 can achieve a variety of precise control operations, including initial position hovering, current position maintenance, automatic landing and trajectory tracking, etc. At the same time, Prometheus is equipped with rich usage tutorials and development documents, which greatly reduces the development threshold for scientific researchers.

• Complete ecology From online communities, WeChat groups, to offline training, P series UAV has a complete set of user-oriented support ecosystem. Users can interact with professional engineers at any time and answer questions online.
