Compact gimbal cameras ready to escort outdoor adventures

 Outdoor adventure is a sport that is popular all over the world. The well-known outdoor adventures in the world include field camping, mountaineering, skiing, self-driving, horse riding, paragliding, diving and so on.


However, this kind of outdoor sports has one thing in common, that is, there is a certain degree of danger, and once a threat occurs, it is very difficult to save yourself and seek rescue. For more than 70 years, the American Alpine Climbing Club (ACC) has published an annual collection of hard lessons learned. The report shows that since 1990, there are a total of 2,770 accident reports. According to data from the Outdoor Industry Association, from 2017 to 2018, the number of people participating in traditional climbing reached 2.5 million per year, while the number of sports climbing and bouldering combined was 2.1 million.


The accident rate of outdoor adventures in China is also increasing year by year. In 2020, a total of 297 mountaineering outdoor sports accidents occurred in mainland China. Among them, there were 217 mountaineering accidents, resulting in 9 deaths, 1 missing, and 93 injuries; 57 hiking accidents, resulting in 7 deaths and 11 injuries. The two together accounted for 92.26% of the total number of cases, and the number of deaths accounted for 59.25% of the total number of deaths.


Many outdoor adventurers think that when they encounter difficulties, if they call for help, the rescue team will arrive soon, but in fact, in the vast forest or desert, it is very difficult to find someone even if he has a specific location. What's more, in many cases, there is no specific precise location, but only a general direction. At this situation, as long as the rescue team takes a wrong step, it is likely to go wrong, and it will definitely take a lot of time to turn back. If a backpack is hypothermic or injured and cannot move, then this situation would be even more difficult. But at this time, if there is a drone with a compact gimbal camera, it will undoubtedly expand the field of vision and make the rescue possible.



The small UAV is easy to carry, and the search and rescue personnel can carry out reconnaissance according to the approximate position described in the search and rescue, so a high-definition gimbal camera is required, DYK290G207/DYK290G609 HD 1080P camera would be a perfect fit for wild rescue. Equipped with a 9x digital zoom, the 2-axis gimbal can conveniently reconnaissance the environment, and help the rescue team quickly find the clues of the rescued. To cope with complex weather, the DYK290G207/DYK290G609 also integrates with a 256*192/640*512 thermal imaging camera, helping detect whether there are wild animals nearby. It is worth mentioning that the weight of the DYK290G207/DYK290G609 is 180 grams only.


In fact, deep mountains, dense forests and wilderness desert are also full of dangers for the rescue team itself. Therefore, in addition to its own physical equipment, high-tech equipment is also essential for rescue teams. The carrier of the small gimbal cameras mentioned above is not only the drone. Relying on the small dual-light gimbal cameras, Topotek has developed a set of emergency application systems. In addition to being mounted on drones, the photoelectric pods can also be installed on helmets, and then use AI glasses as a display, so as to maximize the safety of the rescue team and at the same time search and rescue the trapped backpackers. 


Speaking of this, I still want to remind the outdoor adventure enthusiasts that outdoor adventure is not a personal matter. Because once there is danger, a team or even the entire rescue team may be implicated. Therefore, before the expedition, you must do your homework. In the clothing, try to be windproof, warm, waterproof, and breathable, so as to avoid the risk of hypothermia. You should also bring some insect repellent or traumatic medicine. If necessary, you can even bring some field army rations. Although the field army rations are not delicious, they are easy to carry. A small bite can quickly replenish your energy.


In terms of soft skills, it is necessary to learn more about wild rescue and self-rescue knowledge, understand plant characteristics, and have a sufficient understanding of the terrain, plants and rock structures that are going to be explored or climbed.

Optoelectronic gimbal camera application system, is the advanced edition of spots camera

 The vast majority of the people have a hobby of recording exciting moments, which is not difficult for ordinary photography enthusiasts, because the moments they want to record are nothing more than flowers, birds, fish, insects, and the beauty of life. However, there is a group of people who have difficulties. These people want to record exciting moments that are slightly inferior or difficult to capture, and they are extreme sports enthusiasts. In order to meet this demand, sports cameras were born.



Sports cameras were first born from the extreme sports lifestyle, product features are small size, convenient to carry, and usually have multiple accessories to facilitate their wearable characteristics. The main feature of sports cameras is high frame rate recording, and due to battery capacity limitations, the power consumption requirements must be low. In recent years, the use of sports cameras has gradually entered the field of family life from extreme sports, expanding from ordinary sports cameras to panoramic cameras, aerial photography, and other aspects.



Sports cameras have many advantages, they are very small and portable, and they are waterproof and fall resistant, with a wide viewing angle. In addition, these cameras have excellent anti shake performance. However, these cameras also have their inherent shortcomings, which are basically difficult to compensate for. The answer is that the negative film is small, so generally, such sports cameras are more suitable for shooting in areas with sufficient optics, such as sunlight or snow. Moreover, extreme motion is usually carried out in such weather, so it did not receive attention in the early stage. However, with the increasing application of sports cameras, this problem will be exposed, shooting in shadows or under night lighting Even top sports cameras cannot bear to look directly at their effects.



In extreme sports, enthusiasts need to record more and more things or perspectives. They want to see different landscapes and showcase their unique movements, and they are not limited to sunny and windy weather, such as rally events, which sometimes need to be held at night. At this time, a more advanced product is needed. By the way, the development of human technology is actually military before civilian. We now see that many of the predecessors of well-known automotive manufacturers are military giants, and this type of product is no exception, which is optoelectronic gimbal camera.



At first glance, an optoelectronic gimbal camera is completely different from a sports camera. Let's take a look and explain that gimbal can be widely used in land, sea, air, and space reconnaissance, with carriers such as vehicles, ships, aircraft, and satellites., So let's think about it. Optoelectronic gimbal camera are generally equipped on mobile unmanned equipment, so stability is a high requirement. The first element of motion cameras is stability, and this can be considered a dimensionality reduction strike. Secondly, with the change of the current international situation, especially to the war, the miniaturization of the Optoelectronic gimbal camera has become a trend. The miniaturized gimbal is equipped with artillery shells and patrol missiles. It should be able to adapt to high G motion, and its structural strength is unmatched by ordinary sports cameras.



Then there are the functional aspects, such as the DYK290G207 or DYK290G609 dual SENSOR 2 axis Topotek optoelectronic gimbal camera, high-definition 1080P visible light+9x digital zoom+256 or 640 thermal imaging, allowing you to shoot the video you want without considering the weather and lighting conditions. It can support the headset, AI glasses act as screens, watch apps operate. Using the watch app ground station, and the optoelectronic gimbal camera can achieve various shooting needs, For example, the lock function allows you to always lock the camera in one direction during movement, and record the beautiful scenery when you look back. For example, the tracking function is that the camera is always at the same angle as your head, and the camera automatically moves to the position you see, perfectly restoring the world you see during movement.


There is also a locking function. When two or more people are skiing or other racing activities together, the locking function can be activated. At this point, you become the exclusive photographer of this friend. Are you excited? This system is an emergency application system developed by Topotek recently, relying on dual light optoelectronic gimbal camera weighing less than 200 grams, which can be used for military reconnaissance, JTAC joint attack guidance, etc. The civilian version is also very popular, I believe it will become the main competitor of current sports cameras.



The miniaturized optoelectronic gimbal camera has almost all the advantages of a sports camera, and also enhances multiple functions. Whether it's participating in extreme sports or leisure tourism, I believe it's a good choice. Military industry quality, serving the people, Topotek's gimbal camera, I think it works!
