AVT’s CM234 Gimbal Designed for TUAS Missions

Incorporating high-quality imagery and four-axis stabilisation in less than 6.6kg, the CM234 from AVT Australia delivers the highest performance of imaging capabilities for the lowest SWaP in its class.

The CM234 gimbal combines seven sensor configurations in a compact gyro-stabilised imaging system weighing just under 6.6kg. With four-axis active stabilisation, the CM234 offers greater accuracy in intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance (ISR) and target acquisition operations while providing superior situational awareness to operators.

The CM234 delivers innovative and powerful imaging technology that is ideal for a range of current and future tactical uncrewed aircraft system (TUAS) missions.

Accurate detection and identification – The CM234 combines seven sensors in a compact, four-axis payload. With 4-axis mechanical stabilisation, the CM234 delivers highly accurate detection and identification of an object at maximum zoom, facilitating long-range DRI and allowing the operator to maintain a safe stand-off distance.

Long-range ISR capabilities – The CM234 includes two HD EO sensors, one MWIR sensor, one SWIR sensor, a laser range finder, a laser target designator, and a laser pointer all in one lightweight package. The system also offers advanced mechanical and electronic stabilisation, object tracking, and geo-referencing capabilities to excel across mission sets.

Long-Endurance Operation – On-board video encoding and processing minimises additional hardware to keep the total payload weight under 6.6kg. This extends flight time and delivers enhanced video for operators to facilitate maximum operation.

The CM234 epitomises cutting-edge technology with its compact design and array of sensor capabilities and laser payloads. Delivering unmatched performance in a small size, weight, and power package, the CM234 sets a new standard for precision and versatility in surveillance and reconnaissance systems.
