Russian unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) will receive a new system for active vibration suppression — "Dronel". It was developed by scientists from the Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology.
The proposed system includes a vibration detector, a control unit, and electric drives operating in antiphase, allowing vibrations to be damped. The device, designed for drones weighing up to 5 kg, reduces the dispersion of the laser beam by 20-30%.
The developers noted that laser guidance in drones is one of the most common methods of targeting. In this technology, a laser beam illuminates an object, after which the equipment detects the reflected signal and orients itself to it.
But the key problem of laser installations on UAVs is vibrations, which lead to the dispersion of the laser spot, which reduces the accuracy of guidance.
During the correction process, data from the detector is sent to the control unit, from where a signal is sent to the electric drives. They generate reverse pulses to compensate for vibrations. As a result, the system keeps the laser device in a stationary position.
UAVs with "Dronel" can be used in military and civilian fields.
