Visual - RGB

A visual-RGB, also known as electro-optical (EO), sensor captures visible light. For sUAS applications, this sensor is typically used for cinematic photography and the creation detailed point clouds and orthomosaics through SfM post-processing. One major limitation of this sensor is it relies on ambient lighting conditions to collect information. Without another light source, this limits the sensor’s use to the daytime in most cases.
