Autel Robotics showcased three major drone product lines at CES 2022 and also revealed the exclusive first public caged flight demonstrations. The products in the spotlight at CES are the consumer-focused EVO Nano series and EVO Lite series with the Autel Sky App, and the enterprise-targeted Dragonfish Series.
Autel EVO Nano and Lite Series Drones
The Nano series and Lite series include both a standard drone and a “plus” model with some exciting extra features. These drones feature video quality (up to 6K for the Lite+), a wide image transmission range of 7.4 miles, battery life of up to 40 minutes (EVO Lite series), and advanced features such as vision sensors for smart obstacle avoidance. They’re even available in a range of colors: Autel Orange and Blazing Red, or the cool Arctic White and Deep Space Gray.
Autel’s EVO Nano Series is weighing in at only 249g. The EVO Nano+ boasts a 1/1.28-inch (0.8-inch) CMOS sensor capable of 50 Megapixel (MP) photos and the standard EVO Nano is no slouch with its 48 MP camera. An RYYB color filter array design with a large aperture of f/1.9 of EVO Nano+ offers noise reduction capabilities and produce quality images in low-light conditions.
Autel’s EVO Lite and Lite+ bring new perspectives and new possibilities. Image quality features a 50 MP camera equipped with a 1/1.28-inch (0.8-inch) CMOS sensor. The camera adopts an RYYB color filter array design, which absorbs 40% more light than traditional RGGB arrays, allowing users to capture natural scenery in all its glory. Track fast-moving subjects with a precise autofocus that locks in within milliseconds using a phase detection autofocus and dual focus algorithm. Moreover, the EVO Lite is the first drone to introduce a four-axis gimbal design, enabling users to shoot vertical videos for easy editing and sharing on mobile devices.
The EVO Lite+, with its big 1-inch CMOS image sensor and Autel’s intelligent moonlight algorithm, can capture crisp, vibrant details at night with low noise — even when the ISO is cranked up high. And users can flex their creativity and take control with the adjustable aperture – from f/2.8 to f/11. They can also alter exposure and depth of field to show off their unique artistic style.
The Dragonfish’s unique tilt-rotor design simplifies operation while maximizing performance and efficiency. This drone is modular, waterproof, smart, and reliable. The Dragonfish includes powerful AI tracking capabilities and a multitude of modular payload options. A flight time of up to 180 minutes means the Dragonfish can stay on-mission far longer than quadcopters, while still retaining the benefits of VTOL takeoff and landing. The 4K video and 50x optical zoom at a range of over 18 miles rounds out this professional enterprise package.
