Phase One MK5 controller
• The Phase One iX Controller MK5 is a powerful and integrated onboard computer system designed to manage and streamline aerial imaging operations. It plays a central role in Phase One’s PAS 280 system acting as it’s command center. The controller manages:
• Camera operations of the PAS 280
• Applanix AP610 GNSS/IMU integration
• SOMAG GSM 4000 Stabilization mount
• Data acquisition and onboard storage of up to 8 TB
GNSS/IMU
AP610 (IMU – 57)
Highest accuracy iXController with integrated Applanix GNSS-Inertial
• Applanix 610 Inertial Measurement Unit is a high-performance GNSS-Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU) system designed specifically for aerial mapping and direct georeferencing. The 610 IMU offers a range of benefits that make it ideal for demanding aerial survey missions:
• Provides extremely accurate position and orientation data for airborne sensors
• Reduces the amount of control points required for aerotriangulation, significantly reducing fieldwork and processing time
• Post-processed accuracy:
• Horizontal: 2–5 cm RMS
• Vertical: 5–10 cm RMS
• Roll & Pitch: 0.0025°
• True Heading: 0.005°
Mount
SOMAG GSM4000 mount
The GSM 4000 Gyro Stabilization Mount by SOMAG is a top-tier stabilization platform designed for large-format airborne sensors. When paired with the PAS 280, it offers a range of benefits that significantly enhance image quality, operational efficiency, and data reliability. Also by maintaining a perfectly level sensor orientation the GSM 4000 reduces the need for excessive image overlap and increases flight efficiency over large areas.
• 3-axis hydraulic gimbal system with four cylinders and two servo pumps.
• Compensates for roll, pitch, and yaw in real time.
• Achieves residual deviation from perpendicular as low as 0.02° RMS with IMU support
