Description
Technical Field

[0002] At present, the pods on drones are mainly traditional dual-light pods (visible light and infrared thermal imaging). When conducting key target reconnaissance and evidence collection in low-light environments, traditional visible light televisions usually obtain dark images with obvious noise because the ambient light illumination is lower than the minimum acceptable value of their detectors. Although infrared thermal imagers can work around the clock to conduct target reconnaissance, they usually can only provide the outline of the target and lack sufficient detailed information, which cannot meet the needs of high-precision evidence collection.
[0003] Therefore, a three-light camera pod is designed so that the UAV can obtain imaging effects that meet the evidence collection requirements under various illumination conditions, which is of great application significance, especially for evidence collection of UAV night flight missions.
