32x zoom
When arriving at an intervention area, firefighters need to see particularly critical areas and get an accurate picture of the overall situation. The ANAFI USA UAV's state-of-the-art gimbal and lenses were designed with this in mind. The 32x zoom lens is built around two 21-megapixel cameras that allow operators to see the scene in great detail from up to 5 km away. ANAFI USA can spot details as small as 1 cm at a distance of 50 m, with precision.
The zoom image obtained is merged with those obtained by the FLIR Boson camera from ANAFI USA. This allows operators to easily locate hot spots with the thermal camera, while distinguishing people on site and any other important details in the image visible from up to 2 km away.
In the example image below, the drone flies over solar panels at an altitude of 40m. Thanks to the powerful zoom of ANAFI USA, the pilot is able to detect heat anomalies present on a precise area of a solar panel, at the centimeter scale.
Image stabilization with a 32x zoom represents a real technological challenge on such a light drone (500 g). Parrot has succeeded in meeting this challenge by combining the gimbal with 3-axis digital stabilisation, obtained via image processing.
Easy to use
The most demanding first aid teams and professional users need to be able to deploy a drone to the area very quickly. To meet this vital requirement, the ANAFI USA drone is operational in less than 55 seconds - including unfolding, ignition, establishing the secure radio connection and take-off.
ANAFI USA operates inside a building without GPS, allowing it to be launched in a room and then sent outside through a window, before returning to the starting point when the mission is complete.
This new drone is so maneuverable that it can also take off from the palm of one hand like a paper airplane.
With no native no-fly zone restrictions, ANAFI USA gives its operators the freedom to take off as soon as necessary, regardless of the mission, while taking responsibility for the area covered.
This drone is the quietest in its class, with a noise level of only 79 dB when 50 cm above the ground. When discretion is a key mission priority, ANAFI USA offers the ability to fly silently and see incredible detail from a distance with its 32x zoom.
It works with a standard USB type C charger for total ease of use.
Weighing only 500g, ANAFI USA is easy to fold for maximum portability. With its small and compact size, it has an autonomy of 32 minutes in terms of flight time, the best in its category. Moreover, with its 3 batteries included in the pack, ANAFI USA offers a total of 1.5 hours of flight time for a drone weighing less than 1 kg.
Reliable and secure
The ANAFI USA drone puts safety first for professional users.
The photos and videos taken by the drone are stored in an encrypted and ultra-secure manner on its SD (Secure Digital) card, based on an AES-XTS algorithm (512-bit key length), so that they cannot be read if the SD card or drone is lost. An encryption key is then the only way to access this data.
ANAFI USA also has a secure connection using the WPA2 protocol between the controller and the drone.
Before updating a new firmware, a verification of its digital signature is required, which prevents possible malicious attempts to modify the drone software.
Parrot has chosen open standards and protocols (including Wi-Fi, WPA2, RTP/RTSP, H.264 and GUTMA) to ensure trust and interoperability of recorded data.
Users can opt to share their data via the FreeFlight 6 application. By default, data is not shared; user consent is required. Once this feature is enabled and consent is given, flight data and logs are stored on secure servers in Europe, in addition to the copies kept locally on the drone. The drone's functionality complies with the rules of the RGPD, the European regulation on the protection of personal data.
Robust
The IP53 rating of the ANAFI USA drone guarantees its resistance to dust and its waterproofing for flying in rainy weather. It has been designed to withstand the harshest possible flight conditions encountered during missions.
The image stabilization ensures that even in wind gusts of up to 15 m/s, the images are of the highest quality.
New flight features
ANAFI USA's advanced flight features are designed to meet the unique requirements of professional drone users. Assisted by FreeFlight 6, Parrot's proven pilot application, they have a full suite of flight options. ANAFI USA flight plans can be programmed by navigation coordinates, for assisted or fully autonomous flights.
These flight plan scheduling and object tracking functions are now essential for optimizing the coordination of ground teams.
With its customizable RTH (Return to Home) feature, ANAFI USA allows users to end their flights exactly where they want. RTH occurs automatically if the drone is disconnected, or if its battery level becomes too low, to protect the investment.
ANAFI USA accurately records the satellite coordinates of the points of interest you designate to give operations managers a clear view of the terrain and quickly detect missing persons or potential hazards.
USE CASE: Power line inspection
Power line inspection is a major issue for power companies.
Today, most operators use a combination of field personnel and helicopters to inspect their power lines - both of which are costly, dangerous and weather dependent.
Around the world, the ANAFI USA professional drone is rapidly being adopted by operators to easily perform equipment inspections.
Its infrared camera allows the verification of insulators with an incomparable efficiency.
Its zoom lens (the most powerful in its category) allows to inspect high voltage lines while staying away from electric arcs and electromagnetic interference.
It allows to observe details of 3 mm at 100 m distance.
Its infrared camera FLIR Boson allows to identify, locate and diagnose an insulator overheating before its degradation leads to a network cut.
IP53 rated, ANAFI USA can be flown in rainy weather. In high winds, it maintains a stabilized image in gusts up to 15 m/s.
ANAFI USA is an easy to use tool that deploys in 55 seconds. It weighs 500 g and is retractable. It can take off from the pilot's hand and land there. It can be used to conduct these inspections on a regular basis.
The Flight Plan function allows you to plan your 32-minute flights along power lines and in orbit around pillars with great precision.
CASE STUDY: Inspection of solar panels
The adoption of renewable energy sources is a major issue. The proper functioning of solar panels is linked to the quality of their inspection. A single faulty cell can compromise the entire system. Manual inspection is a long process. Operators climb on high platforms and stop the energy production to ensure their safety.
ANAFI USA simplifies the inspection of solar panels.
ANAFI USA uses an integrated FLIR Boson thermal sensor that can identify anomalies at an altitude of 40 m. ANAFI USA can scan 5 rows of solar panels at a time. When a hot spot is observed, the 32x zoom of the drone allows to identify precisely the defective cell, with a detail of 3 mm at 40 m distance.
All operators can have a retractable drone weighing 500 g. Operational in only 55 seconds, it can fly up to 3 km away. The panels can be flown over without stopping the photovoltaic plant.
Operators also have the option of making precise 32-minute flight plans.
The traditional inspection of a power plant on foot usually requires an operator for several days. With ANAFI USA this process can be done more quickly. This saves time and reduces costs.
Once the flight mission is over, to view the thermal images in a geospatial and temporal context, operators can take advantage of the interactive video/map player from Survae, a Parrot partner.
They can also use the FreeFlight 6 application to view videos, change the range of thermal parameters to accurately isolate an element, and perform troubleshooting.
CASE STUDY: Inspection of telecommunication towers
For communications companies with cell phone and radio towers, time-consuming maintenance and preliminary investigations are a regular and frequent activity.
ANAFI USA avoids the dangerous and time-consuming climbing of towers for technicians. Its 32x zoom allows to observe details of the order of a centimeter at 150 m distance. Valuable information can be obtained: easily identify equipment serial numbers, confirm permanent installations. ANAFI USA's zoom also allows the drone to remain at a safe distance from the towers to avoid electromagnetic interference, guaranteeing total safety for operators.
Its FLIR Boson infrared camera can detect hot spots and overheating, and thus detect system failures or even structural damage following a storm.
Having the ability to do accurate 3D modeling with Pix4Dmapper is also a valuable tool to allow operators to comfortably analyze the structure of the tower, identify equipment needs, in addition to obtaining useful measurements.
The IP53-rated ANAFI USA is also designed for missions in the harshest flight conditions: it is rain and dust resistant. The image stabilization ensures that high quality images are obtained, even in wind gusts up to 15 m/s.
USE CASE: Police
ANAFI USA has been designed to meet the needs of surveillance, search and rescue, critical missions and crime scene exploration. These uses require great discretion from the teams during their operations. Its 79 dB sound signature at a distance of 1 m makes ANAFI USA undetectable at 130 m. It does not cause any alert that could jeopardize the success of the observation operation.
ANAFI USA's ability to capture 1cm detail at 150m distance with its 32x zoom lens allows for the detection of moving persons up to 2km away by day. At night, the FLIR Boson® Thermal Camera can locate a missing person or a potential suspect up to 150 m away.
Once the target is detected, the FreeFlight 6 control application allows the exact location to be shared with the intervention teams.
ANAFI USA is compatible with decision support tools. During a mission to find a missing person or a fire involving the management of several drones, the DroneSense management platform makes it possible to develop, size and manage a fleet of ANAFI USA.
Pix4Dcapture and Pix4Dmapper software allow to quickly map in 3D an accident scene to reopen a road safely. Pix4Dreact allows to map without internet connection a search area to detect, in collaborative mode, points of interest where to send the drone for reconnaissance.
ANAFI USA weighs 500 g. It takes 55 seconds to set up. This makes it easy to deploy in any situation. It saves law enforcement time and money.
Its secure Wi-Fi link and robust SD card encryption with the AES-XTS algorithm combined with a 512-bit encryption key make ANAFI USA suitable for the most confidential missions. Made in the USA, ANAFI USA fully complies with the TAA (Trade Agreement Act) and NDAA (National Defense Authorization Act) regulations and can be purchased through the GSA 2020 Calendar.
