Russian unmanned aerial vehicles 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 vibration damping. The device, designed for drones weighing up to 5 kg, reduces the spread of the laser beam by 20-30%.
The developers noted that laser guidance is one of the most common methods of target designation in drones. 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 with laser installations on UAVs is vibrations, which lead to scattering of the laser spot, which reduces the accuracy of guidance.
