Hexagon announces partnership with Airbus for near real-time airborne bathymetric LiDAR surveillance system

Leica Chiroptera 4X Lidar传感器的新飞行配置直接接口空中客车的战术任务系统,以增加海上监视行业的重要功能

(Jönköping, Sweden, 18 November, 2021) Hexagon’s Geosystems division announced today a partnership with Airbus to integrate two Leica Chiroptera 4X bathymetric LiDAR sensors for maritime surveillance into the C295 MSA, Airbus’ Maritime Surveillance Aircraft.

Hexagon’s new technology enables detection of underwater objects in near real-time, a significant innovation in the airborne bathymetry industry. The cutting-edge solution was developed to meet Airbus’ requirements and will first be implemented in two C295 MSA purchased by the Irish Air Corps (IAC). The unique object detection feature enables real-time LiDAR data visualisation and analysis during the flight. Being able to locate the precise position of the object allows operators to preview and analyse information captured below water immediately — a process which previously could take up to several days.

“We are delighted to announce the innovative application of the Chiroptera 4X sensor which now identifies small, submerged objects close to real-time, making bathymetric object detection faster than ever before,” says Anders Ekelund, VP for Bathymetric LiDAR Sensors at Hexagon. “With this latest innovation, we are expanding our current system, adding significant capabilities for the maritime surveillance industry, and introducing new applications for airborne bathymetry.”

“我们很高兴将Chiroptera 4X测深痛传感器和新的对象检测技术安装到我们的C295 MSA中。与Hexagon的合作伙伴关系使我们能够为爱尔兰航空公司提供新的,创新的和集成的LIDAR解决方案。”bob体育报道空中客车公司的任务系统工程师。“借助综合的测深和地形激光雷达,我们认为Chiroptera 4X系统中的巨大潜力是对客户的有效应用。”

“当我们获得C295 MSA时,我们探索了各种传感器,以添加到我们的舰队中,包括测深和地形激光雷达。空中客车公司向我们介绍了现在符合我们所有要求的Chiroptera 4X。“综合的测深和地形传感器将为我们提供比以往更多的细节。检测接近实时的物体并清楚地了解水下活动,这将使我们能够直接向地面上的任务支持中心报告,并更快地采取行动以更有效地履行职责。Chiroptera 4X将为沿海海洋领域提供更好的解决方案。”

The Irish Air Corps will be the first to utilise the new technology once both C295 MSA are equipped with the Chiroptera 4X LiDAR sensor and with the near real-time detection application. The aircraft are due for delivery to Ireland in Q2 2023.
