Getac’s rugged tablets and laptops could be customized and configured into reliable and adaptable ground control stations. These stations typically run on a ground-based computer that processes real-time data and facilitates user interaction, ensuring you’re equipped to meet the challenges of your operational demands.
Our rugged devices, engineered with cutting-edge technology, could be tailored into powerful ground control stations for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). Ground stations facilitate real-time data display, control interfaces for UAV operations, and management of mission parameters. They help ensure seamless flight control in challenging environments and offer unmatched versatility and durability. Some of the standout key features of Getac rugged devices include:
Stay connected with seamless integration into your drone systems, providing real-time visibility and control.
Our devices feature sunlight-readable displays and anti-glare technology, ensuring maximum visibility even in bright outdoor environments.
With high-capacity batteries, our devices offer extended operational time, allowing you to maintain control without the constant worry of recharging, even during long missions.
Our rugged tablets and laptops have an IP rating of 65 or higher, built to withstand challenging weather conditions.
In the demanding world of ground control operations, mobility and durability are paramount. We explore how innovative solutions can transform rugged tablets and laptops into powerful, portable Ground Control Stations (GCSs) ready for challenging environments. Each customization and development example is designed to deliver optimal performance tailored to your unique operational demands.
For smaller UAVs, a conventional twin-stick style transmitter, similar to those used for radio-controlled model aircraft, provides an intuitive control system that can be effectively paired with laptops or tablets for data and video telemetry.
Enhance a laptop’s robustness while maintaining mobility by integrating controllers on its sides. This creates a powerful yet versatile ground control station, perfect for demanding environments.
Add controllers to the sides of a tablet to ensure easy handling and portability without compromising functionality, creating a truly mobile ground control station.
Connecting a controller directly to a laptop offers an efficient solution for visualizing and controlling drone operations with minimal complexity.
Each customization method is designed to deliver optimal system performance tailored to your unique operational demands.
UAV ground control stations utilizing Getac’s rugged devices could take various forms, including portable and fixed installations tailored to distinct operational needs.
These stations are ideal for various drone applications, including:
Inspecting electricity pylons
Crop monitoring
Inspecting wind turbines
Surveying large building rooftops
Supporting public safety and defense/military operations to control UAVs
