The spherical design protects the vehicle's internal components and allows the UAV to roll over the ground when the environment allows. The drone can land and take off in any position and come into contact with objects without endangering the propellers and can restart even after crashes.

We've ingeniously upgraded a DJI Avata with a bespoke thermal and 360° camera system. Compact yet powerful, measuring just 18 x 18 x 17 cm, this drone is strategically engineered to effortlessly navigate and deliver crucial thermal and 360° insights concurrently in post-fire or post-explosion environments. The integration of a specialized thermal and 360° camera system enables the simultaneous capture of both data sources during a single flight. This groundbreaking approach not only reduces inspection time by half but also facilitates the seamless superimposition of thermal and 360° videos for comprehensive analysis and interpretation.

The UAV needs 3 minutes to capture the outdoor scenario and the hall from inside and outside. The hall ist about 70 x 20 meters. When the drone is landed we have all information in 360° degree at 5.7k as you can see it in the video. Furthermore it is a perfect documentation of the deployment scenario. In the next video we will show how to spatial localize the 360° video and how to generate a 3D point cloud from it.
