MicaSense RedEdge-MX

Micasense RedEdge-Mx Multispectral Camera for senseFly eBeeX

 

senseFly eBee X now equipped with a new sensor without compromise:

Micasense RedEdge-MX is a small, robust and precise multispectral camera, which represents a very important implementation for senseFly eBee X, making it the best performing fixed-wing SAPR available on the market to perform in-depth analysis activities in precision agriculture.

Micasense RedEdge-MX is a high-performance instrument able of capturing both the spectral bands that determine the cultivation health indexes (green, red, red edge and near-infrared), and the blue band for more specific in-depth analysis, as well as RGB composite images .

senseFly eBee X is the world-leading product in the field of fixed-wing drones, thanks to which it is possible to map hundreds of hectares in 90 minutes of single flight; with this integration senseFly has released the best performing solution for farmers, agronomists and researchers, who know how much an in-depth and high resolution data on crops represents the key to efficiency in decision-making processes.
