GMS and Flying-Cam, HD UAV in action (April, 2006)

First live High Definition UAV in history.

HD UAV 

These video clips show the test flight of the first ever wireless High Definition video on a small UAV in history. GMS and Flying-Cam collaborated to make this dream a reality. The Cannon XH-L1, HD camera and GMS' HDMT transmitter were used on the UAV. HDMT, "High Definition Messenger Transmitter" is the smallest HD microwave transmitter in the world today and its small size was essential to make this flight possible. On the ground GMS' MAA "Messenger Antenna Array" and the MSR, "Messenger Smart Receiver" were used. The combination of MAA/ MSR, provided a solid video stream on the ground. This combination can provide up to 5 miles of coverage. With the aide of 10W power amplifier on board of larger aircraft, ranges up to 80 miles LOS can be achieved. For your viewing convenience two copies of video are presented here. Both are compressed for download over the internet. Please download and save the 140 Mb file to view the higher quality video. To appreciate the full quality of this video an HD-DVD will be required. GMS plans to provide HD-DVD’, upon request, when the technology is made available in summer of 2006.
