μLanding Lite™ Altimeter
Sensing. Processing. Creativity.
Feb 9, 2017
Product Overview
The μLanding Lite is a compact microwave radar altimeter based on Aerotenna’s miniaturized
radar technology. μLanding Lite is especially engineered
for low profile and low power consumption in UAV
applications.
μLanding Lite provides accurate above-ground-level
(AGL) altitude information in real time for autonomous
takeoff, landing, and waypoint navigation for UAVs/drones, as well as maintaining a target
altitude during flight. μLanding Lite is the smallest and lightest radar altimeter on the market,
and is a great solution – even for small drones.
Designed with the end user in mind, μLanding Lite features quick installation, ease of use, and a
seamless interface with Aerotenna's OcPoC SoC flight controller, or other flight controllers. It
supports all terrain or surfaces with exceptional performance over water and bushes. The
benefits to Drone makers, developers, and service providers:
●Low cost
●Fit into small UAVs
●High accuracy in all weather conditions
●Detection for all-terrain
●Low power consumption for longer flight time
●Easy plug and play integration
