Description

Emesent Hovermap


Autonomous and versatile, the slam-based mapper making data capture fast and simple 

hovermapHovermap is a LiDAR mapping drone payload that can be mounted to a drone. The payload is lightweight and small, but more than strong  enough for industrial environments. Hovermap's unique design allows it to be used vehicle-mounted, backpack-mounted, or even handheld for walking. Hovermap features a quick-release mechanism that makes switching between drone flights to walking scenarios easy. 

Collision avoidance

Hovermap acts as a virtual safety bubble around the drone to prevent collisions. LiDAR data is processed onboard in real-time to produce a local 3D map of the surroundings. Obstacles such as telecom towers, fences, trees, poles, wires and people can all be detected and avoided.

GPS-denied flight

Drones usually rely on GPS for localization, navigation and flight control. Hovermap uses LiDAR data and advanced algorithms onboard in real-time to provide reliable and accurate localization and navigation without the need for GPS. This allows drones to fly autonomously in GPS-denied environments, enabling a host of new applications such as flying and mapping in underground mines, inside warehouses or inspecting underneath bridges.

SLAM based 3D mapping

Hovermap uses Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithms enabling mobile mapping and autonomous drone flight even when GPS is unavailable. Using Emesent’s proprietary calibration and drone autonomy algorithms, it is built on CSIRO’s Wildcat SLAM Solution.
