"Memory Master", experience the extraordinary memory of drones! Gaoju Innovation unveils new products at CES 2018

UAV Network (www.youuav.com) reported from the United States: On January 9, the United States time, the world's most cutting-edge electronic technology and application exhibition CES 2018 (International Consumer Electronics Show) officially arrived. "Intelligence" is one of the hottest topics at this year's CES. At the booth, it can be seen that whether it is the YAMAHA unmanned automatic gesture recognition motorcycle or the unmanned intelligent electric balance car, etc., all of them are explaining their technological charm. As a high-tech product of the times, drones themselves require high-standard technical requirements. How to achieve technological intelligence and autonomous operation is a major technological revolution. At this exhibition, Gaoju Innovation brought a number of drones to the grand stage, and at the same time released two light and small consumer drones, which attracted countless audiences on the scene. Has anyone seen a drone with a memory function?

CES 2018 Gaoju Innovation Exhibition Site

Gaoju Innovation brought two new drones to the exhibition, namely Mark and Hesper. Mark consumer-grade rotor drone uses VIO positioning technology, allowing the drone to shuttle back and forth indoors and outdoors, and can also remember cruise, which is one of the few new features of consumer-grade drones. Hesper has two positioning methods, one is visual positioning, this system contains a camera and ultrasonic sensor, the camera will scan the ground to calculate the flight position, even in the absence of GPS signal can achieve precise hovering.

Mark drone at the exhibition

Mark is a highly intelligent drone newly developed by Gaoju Innovation. It uses the latest VIO technology to replace the traditional optical flow + GPS positioning mode, so that it can easily achieve accurate and stable hovering indoors and outdoors. At the same time, this technology can ensure that Mark can freely shuttle indoors and outdoors without the constraints of GPS. Mark is also an intelligent drone with a memory cruise function, which can identify and record the trajectory it has flown. Users can use one-click operation to let Mark fly according to the previous trajectory memory. No matter how complex the terrain is, Mark can easily cope with it. VIO technology is an innovative technology in the drone industry. Applying it in other fields of drones will greatly reduce labor costs and improve work efficiency.

Mark Drone

The Mark drone weighs about 200g, which means that users do not need to register before flying, and do not need to carry a bulky box around. Of course, light weight is only one of the advantages of this product. The Mark is designed with an extremely foldable structure. When folded, it is only the size of a palm, and you only need to put it in your pocket, making travel so simple. Two cameras are all the sensors that Mark carries, which also saves users the steps and time of calibrating the compass before use. Taking photos and videos with it is as convenient as taking photos with a mobile phone.

Mark folding design

Technology is the only way to go. Mark uses Qualcomm Snapdragon solutions, which also makes Mark more reliable and intelligent. It integrates the flight control system, image processing and other functions into a small-sized circuit board. In addition, the application of VIO technology makes Mark a small-sized but very powerful product. To ensure that Mark can take high-definition pictures and videos, Mark is equipped with a 1300W camera. Through the improvement of structure and software algorithms, Gaoju Innovation can ensure that users can have stable and smooth high-definition 1080P videos after image stabilization, and 4K videos before image stabilization.

The audience is very interested in Mark

Another new product of Gaoju Innovation, Hesper, is also worth mentioning. Like Mark, it can be folded and is as small as a mobile phone. The total weight is 320g, which is very convenient to carry. Hesper has two positioning methods. One is visual positioning. This system contains a camera and ultrasonic sensor. The camera scans the ground to calculate the flight position. The ultrasonic wave can detect the flight height. With the two sensors working at the same time, the drone can achieve precise hovering without GPS signals. Outdoors, Hesper uses GPS signals to help with positioning.

Hesper UAV

Hesper's following is actually a visual following rather than a GPS following. The camera equipped with Hesper can capture the image of the tracking object and display it on the screen of the smartphone. Users can select the tracking target and activate the tracking function to achieve autonomous following. Visual following makes following simpler and more reliable.

Live flight demonstration

As a drone that can take photos, its shooting flexibility is naturally essential. The Hesper adjustable gimbal supports an adjustable range of -15° to 90°, which allows users to have a wider field of view and more ways to take photos and videos. The mechanical gimbal and electronic gimbal work together to make the video captured during the flight more stable.

Hesper's Qualcomm Snapdragon solution gives it a smart brain that can integrate many functions on a small-sized circuit board, which is why Hesper is so small but so powerful. Hesper can be operated through two methods: APP and remote control. Users can choose the operation method according to their preferences. APP operation does not require other devices and is easier to use. With the remote control, users can enjoy a longer control distance. Gaoju's innovative remote control uses an advanced automatic frequency hopping wireless communication system, which can achieve real-time control of the aircraft in three degrees of freedom within a control distance of 800 meters. The remote control adopts a foldable design, which can easily hold a mobile phone. It has an integrated wireless high-definition image transmission system. With the company's developed App, users can watch high-definition real-time scenes on their mobile phones, and the various status parameters of the aircraft will also be fully displayed on the device screen. In addition, the remote control is equipped with an image transmission module to achieve real-time transmission of 720P high-definition images.
