Sharp Vision from Takeoff to Landing
Compact camera modules built for UAV and drone imaging payloads.
Every Gram Is a Trade-Off
On a drone, the camera module competes directly with battery capacity and flight time. A poorly matched camera that weighs 10 g more than necessary can cost minutes of endurance on every flight — and a rolling shutter artefact on a banking turn can ruin an entire inspection pass.
- Weight — every extra gram reduces flight time
- Rolling shutter artefacts on fast-manoeuvring platforms
- Outdoor dynamic range: bright sky, shadowed ground, reflective surfaces
- Vibration from motors requiring stable optical assemblies
How We Engineer Around It
Lightweight
Engineered to add as little weight as possible to your platform
Global Shutter
Sharp frames at full robot speed – no distortion, no blur
High Dynamic Range
Wide dynamic range sensors for mixed and variable illumination
Aerial Optics
Wide-angle to narrow-FOV, fixed or interchangeable, flight-optimised
Low Power
Minimised power consumption to reduce heat in the payload bay
From Prototype to Payload in Six to Eight Weeks
Appleye’s rapid prototype cycle keeps pace with drone development timelines. We have supplied modules for commercial and defence UAV programmes and understand the traceability requirements these applications demand. Our global distribution via Arrow Electronics supports production volumes across all territories.
