3 PROVEN INSIDER TIPS THAT CRUSH UAV PROBLEMS
Ian Fairweather, CEO of FIT talks about how Ainstein’s radar altimeter surpassed lidar, kept the team safe, and saved FIT from costly UAV errors.
Fairweather IT (FIT), was using LIDAR to fly over dangerous waters. Although it worked great over land, water was a different story. With the levels of toxicity these waters encounter, any collision is a 100% loss of the UAV. Ian found Ainstein and now uses the US-D1. As Ian puts it, the US-D1 “IT JUST PLAIN WORKS” over all the many terrains his organization encounters.
3 Challenges FIT faced
Operating at distance
relying on telemetry data and onboard cameras was challenging
Flying below not above
any mistake was a 100% loss of UAV
Lidar didn't cut it
great over land but not over water
Why FIT chose Ainstein?
Which product? US-D1

Ainstein’s UAV Standard Radar Altimeter US-D1 is a must-have mmWave Radar sensor, enabling autonomous takeoff and autonomous landings for drones, as well as terrain tracking commonly required for precision agriculture.
