Description

SkyHopper PRO V by Mobilicom offers a bi-directional data-link with video processing and analytics capabilities specifically designed for commercial and industrial drones.

By employing leading wireless technologies, the SkyHopper PRO V includes a dual camera input, dual built-in video encoders/decoders, three camera interfaces and local recording ability.

SkyHopper PRO V delivers long range and Non-Lin of Sight (N-LOS) communication that supports multiple transmission modes and provides the best solution for fleet management and autonomous UAV systems.

SkyHopper PRO V supports Point-to-Point and Point-to-Multipoint communication, thereby enabling various modes of operation and offers built-in flexibility to best optimize to specific customer challenges.

SkyHopper PRO V also provides a full range of support services in an effort to optimize the use of the product, taking commercial and industrial drones to new heights. The SkyHopper PRO V Support Team is available to answer questions or assist at any given time, to guarantee all product benefits are maximized.

SkyHopper PRO V Features:

  • Dual Camera Input
  • Supports Analog, HDMI and IP Interfaces
  • Glass-to-Glass Low Latency
  • Local Recording Ability
  • Ability to use a decoder with a screen (not solely a PC / Tablet)
  • Audio Support
  • 5km+ Line-of-Sight (LOS) range
  • Broadcast, Multicast and Unicast Transmission Modes
  • Secured & Encrypted
  • Control, Monitoring, Telemetry and Full HD Real-Time Video
  • Robust N-LOS Operation
  • Relay Operation

SkyHopper PRO V Supports point-to-point and point-to-multipoint communication, thus enabling various modes of operation and offers built-in flexibility to best optimize to specific customer challenges.

DUAL CAMERA INPUT

SkyHopper PRO V is equipped with two video inputs, allowing for the connectivity of two separate cameras. With both micro HDMI and analog inputs, you can easily and simultaneously capture views from two different directions, such as zoomed-in and wide-angle views; electro-optical and infrared cameras and Full HD cameras.

The dual camera input feature ensures that you will not miss out on any essential video coverage.

REAL-TIME FULL HD VIDEO

SkyHopper PRO V delivers real time full HD video by with its integrated video encoder/decoder and the direct plug-in of HDMI or AV interfaces.

By broadcasting the highest quality 1080p video wirelessly over the air at a Glass-to-Glass low latency, you can now monitor critical infrastructures and view live video streaming from your drone with the highest resolution.

LOCAL RECORDING ABILITY

Certain drone applications do not require real-time video transmission, but rather the video and data are  post-processed. In cases like these, SkyHopper PRO V enables the recording of video and data directly onto the drone itself, which can be retrieved at a later time.

Furthermore the local recording ability can be used as a simultaneous backup to real-time video transmission.

UNLIMITED VIEWERS / SIMULTANEOUS CONTROL

SkyHopper PRO V supports drone communication to multiple control stations as well as to an unlimited number of simultaneous viewers (receivers).
For example, for our customers in the film industry, SkyHopper PRO enables multiple operators to simultaneously control different aspects of the drone – one operator controls the drone’s flight, while the other controls the camera.

SkyHopper PRO V’s “Unlimited Viewers” feature enables security teams of large events to successfully mitigate dangers and accidents by its ability to simultaneously distribute real-time video to patrollers, response teams, and other security personnel for more efficient action and faster response times.
Furthermore, thanks to its synchronized transmitting and receiving capabilities, SkyHopper PRO can operate several independent yet synchronized drone-controller Point-to-Point communication links simultaneously in same area without one interfering with the other.

LONG RANGE LINE-OF-SIGHT

SkyHopper PRO has a tremendous transmission range that exceeds 5km line-of-sight. From our customers’ experiences in professional commercial operations, we understand the importance of clear communication over especially long distances.

Whether monitoring commercial crop fields that that run for miles or inspecting cross-country oil pipelines for leaks and failures, SkyHopper PRO offers a robust and reliable link for self-sufficient drones that is critical for the success of our customers’ applications.

Furthermore, SkyHopper PRO’s relay feature as well as ability to communicate with multiple control stations can more than double the transmission range.

RELAY

SkyHopper PRO offers relay operation for extending long range line-of-sight and overcoming dead spots in urban or industrial areas.

In leveraging SkyHopper PRO’s relay capabilities, distance and obstacles no longer serve as barriers to reliable drone control and robust video transmission, which is required for professional drone operations.

This feature is especially important in long distance scenarios such as commercial crop fields that span 10+ kilometers. SkyHopper PRO’s relay system also helps to overcome dead spots in low altitude coverage.

HDMI / ANALOG / IP CAMERA INTERFACES

SkyHopper PRO V has three separate camera interfaces to give the utmost flexibility when selecting the right cameras for your drone and the applications it serves.

Whether operating one or two cameras simultaneously, SkyHopper enables the direct plug-in of HDMI, Analog, or IP cameras.

SECURED & ENCRYPTED

In the age of countless cyberattacks, critical infrastructure and operations require a high level of security. SkyHopper PRO V employs robust security and encryption mechanisms to protect your data from potential cyberattacks.

Unlike standard Wi-Fi or other platforms that are commonly used and open to all, making it easy to locate the data, and are also vulnerable to various hacking tools, our advanced proprietary communication system along with our encryption mechanism makes it nearly impossible to penetrate.

PLUG & PLAY

Today, instant gratification is everything. SkyHopper PRO V eliminates the fuss of a strenuous driver installation process. All you have to do is plug the SkyHopper PRO V to your camera and you are ready to go. Quick, easy and works on all devices.
