DOUBLE THE SPECTRAL RESOLUTION.
HALF THE HASSLE.
THE NEW REDEDGE-MX BLUE SENSOR
The performance you rely on from RedEdge-MX with a new coastal blue band, a new green band, and three new bands in the red to red-edge region of the spectrum. Combined with the bands in RedEdge-MX, the 10 bands in the Dual Camera System enable direct comparison between satellite and drone data. Already have a RedEdge-M or RedEdge-MX? Buy the new RedEdge-MX blue kit and get double the spectral resolution.
DIRECT DATA COMPARISON BETWEEN SATELLITE AND DRONE IMAGERY
- Synchronized capture of all 10 bands for pixel aligned imagery
- Standard 12 bit TIFF file outputs with embedded metadata for full access to raw data
- Combined Downwelling Light Sensor and GPS for streamlined integration, accurate ambient light calibration. Only one DLS required.
- Radiometrically calibrated spectral imagers for precise, repeatable measurements
- Global shutters on all 10 lenses for distortion-free results on every platform
- Comes standard with fixed bracket and quick-mount connector for easy integration
BENEFITS
- Compare imagery directly with Landsat and Sentinel satellite data
- Data is easily processed using Pix4D, Agisoft, and other MicaSense data partners
- Double the bands for double the analytical capabilities
- Monitor shallow water environments with the new coastal blue aerosol band
- Perform detailed analysis on chlorophyll efficiency with new red, green, and two new red edge bands strategically located on the red edge slope

FLY
Flying with two cameras is as easy as flying with one. This solution is compatible with a wide range of aircraft, from large fixed wings to small multirotors, and comes standard with an integration kit for DJI drones.
PROCESS
Because the two cameras are both versions of RedEdge-MX, flight planning and data processing can be done with industry-standard tools like Pix4D and Agisoft.
ANALYZE
Double the bands mean double the analytical capabilities. This solution captures synchronized, pixel-aligned imagery which allows the bands from both cameras to be used interchangeably for the creation of more indices.
