Sentera extends compatibility of 6X series and 65R to Inspired Flight Technologies platforms

St. Paul, MN – Mar. 5, 2024 – Sentera announced that the 6X Multispectral and 65Rultra-high-resolution RGB sensors are now compatible with the IF800 Tomcat and IF1200 systems from Inspired Flight Technologies, an American manufacturer of unmanned aerial vehicles.

“We couldn't be more excited to bring to market the integration of the Sentera 65Rand 6X series cameras on the IF800 Tomcat platform," says Adam Bilmes, Director of Business Development at Inspired Flight, "These integrations enable high-resolution global shutter mapping and science-grade multispectral imaging capabilities for our end-users. Customers can be confident in this partnership between two companies known for delivering the highest levels of performance,support, and service in the industry.”

The IF800 TOMCAT by Inspired Flight features a lightweight, compact, and foldable frame, making it easily transportable and deployable in diverse environments. With an impressive flight time of 54 minutes and a payload capacity of 1.5 kg (max payload 3 kg), the medium-lift IF800 TOMCAT maximizes operational efficiency and productivity. IF800 is a no-compromise, compelling domestic solution for commercial and government agencies, ensuring the safeguarding of sensitive data and enhancing operational efficiency.

“The combination of Sentera sensors and Inspired Flight aircraft offers users acompletely integrated, plug-and-play solution that maximizes flight time withoutcompromising on data quality or security,” said Matt Skelton, Aerospace Engineer,Sentera. “We are excited to continue our partnership with Inspired Flight andextend the capability of our products.”

The 65R is the first ultra-high-resolution aerial RGB sensor in its class to deliver seamless drone integration without compromising image quality. With a sustained 3Hz capture rate of 65-megapixel global shutter imagery, the 65R produces exceptional visual-band imagery. The 6X & 6X Thermal sensors offer science-grade multispectral data, with six independent synchronized optical paths, custom filtering options, and high radiometric accuracy. The 6X series sensors have become the preferred choice for agricultural researchers and agronomists. Both the 6X series and 65R are equipped with Sentera-designed feather-weight gimbals, 512GB SSD internal storage, and time-of-capture geo-tagging, making them the most efficient, productive, and easy-to-use sensors on the market.
