San Jose, CA (November 17, 2015) – This week at Drone World Expo, Amimon is showcasing CONNEX, the zero-latency, wireless HD transmission technology solution for aerial video photography. The company’s innovative CONNEX solution will be demonstrated at their booth (#316). They will also participate in two flying sessions, scheduled with their partner iCam Copters, LLC on November 17 from 2:30 pm to 3:00 pm and on November 18 from 2:15 pm to 2:45 pm. Amimon will also present an informative session titled “Why Zero Latency is Essential to UAV HD Live Video Broadcast” on November 17 and 18 from 11:45 am to 12:15 pm and is open to all attendees.
“As drone applications continue to proliferate, there is an increased need for improvement in image quality to meet the expanded applications,” said David Shefler, Vice President, Sales, Amimon. “Through our CONNEX offering, we are enabling users across applications to create high quality video to meet these demands while also helping to galvanize industry growth and safety.”
Delivering full HD video quality with zero-latency transmission with a range of up to 1,000 meters (3,300 feet), the flying sessions will demonstrate the advantages of CONNEX wireless HD video technology over standard definition or lower resolution images in the UAV market. CONNEX includes a robust 5GHz radio with sophisticated 2x5 MIMO and automatic channel selection (AFS) which allows CONNEX to ensure resilient connectivity at all times, free from interference from UAV controls and other 2.4GHz radio links. A multicasting feature supports up to four screens simultaneously while maintaining excellent HD video. CONNEX is ideal for broadcast, inspection, aerial photography, crowd control and other applications that require real-time control of both camera and drone. The solution includes all antennas, cables and connectors required for air and ground unit setup.
CONNEX is optimized to support PPM gimbals and DJI CAN-Bus flight controller telemetry, adding to existing support for SBUS gimbals and the Mavlink protocol of 3DR. Co-existence with other 5GHz transmitters allows support of drones that feature a secondary transmitter. Other features include an on-screen display with yaw and directional arrows and a fail-safe mechanism for gimbal control for improved safety and reliability.
