Applications
Asset Inspection
ZR10’s 30x hybrid zoom camera, working with HD image transmission devices, can
be applied in various asset inspection scenes such as power plant, construction site,
etc. Especially in inspecting very dangerous assets such as electric towers and wind
turbines, drones equipped with ZR10 zoom camera can secure ground operators
with enough distance to finish inspection by checking the received zoom images
over the air efficiently and safely.
Fire Control and Rescue
In emergent situations such rescue in fire control scenes, firefighters need to see
the full picture as fast as possible. ZR10 is zoom feature can help firefighters quickly
see what is happening and transfer important real-time images to the command
center, so they can deploy or adjust rescue force in time. Then the rescue task can
be finished in high level and high efficiency.
