Velos Rotors

The NextVision Raptor is a dual-sensor electro-optical/infrared (EO/IR) gimbal designed for day-and-night ISR missions, providing mission-critical information in various lighting conditions. Weighing 1.5 kilograms (3.3 pounds), the Raptor offers a lightweight solution for extended endurance ISR operations.

Key Features 

  • The Raptor features an x40 EO zoom and a 640×480 LWIR thermal imager, allowing for enhanced target detection and surveillance at any time of day
  • Multi-sensor capability allows operators to switch between electro-optical (EO) and infrared (IR) views seamlessly, making it ideal for detecting heat signatures and identifying potential threats in both urban and rural environments

Maximizing Your ROI with the Velos V3
Integrating a NextVision Raptor with a Velos V3 maximizes ROI by reducing equipment costs and operational complexity through its dual EO/IR sensor capabilities, enabling superior situational awareness in various environments and reducing the need for multiple sensor payloads. The Raptor’s lightweight design also extends the Velos V3’s flight endurance, allowing for longer, more efficient ISR missions without compromising performance.
