30× Zoom, Thermal Imaging and Laser Ranging

The SGU-HS1-M30A integrates a 30× optical zoom visible-light camera, an 18 mm thermal camera and a laser rangefinder on a three-axis stabilized UAV gimbal. Its onboard SoC includes a neural-network engine and AI algorithms for target detection and tracking in visible-light and thermal images. Designed for energy inspection, security monitoring and forestry applications, it supports single-camera, side-by-side and picture-in-picture viewing.

Key Features

• 8-megapixel visible-light imaging and 4K video at 30 fps.
• 30× optical zoom with MF and AFS focus modes.
• 640 × 512 thermal imaging at 25 fps with 11 color palettes.
• Laser ranging from 5 to 1,500 m.
• AI target detection and tracking, as specified by the manufacturer.
• Point, area and full-frame thermal temperature measurement.
• Three-axis stabilization with Follow and Lock modes.
• Ethernet video output, customizable OSD and microSD recording.

Overall Specifications

Supply-voltage discrepancy: The manual’s system specification states 10–14 V, while the VBAT entries in its wiring table state 10–28 V. Both values are reproduced from their respective sections; they are not interchangeable confirmed operating ratings. Confirm the correct voltage with the manufacturer before applying power.

Interface Versions

• SGU-HS1-M30A: standard interface; this listing describes the standard-interface model.
• SGU-HS1-M30A-ZY: version designed for the Ziyan F15, listed separately in the manual. Confirm availability and compatibility before ordering.

The manual’s 30-pin wiring definitions apply only to the standard-interface SGU-HS1-M30A. The ZY version requires the corresponding aircraft interface documentation.

30-Pin Signal Wiring Table

For the standard-interface SGU-HS1-M30A only. For SGU-HS1-M30A-ZY, refer to the Ziyan aircraft interface documentation. Numbers correspond to the labels on the cable harness. Signal identifiers are retained exactly as printed in the manual.

Package Contents — Standard Interface

• 1 × SGU-HS1-M30A gimbal payload
• 1 × vibration-damping mount with quick-release mechanism, included only with the standard-interface version
• 1 × protective carrying case

Integration and Operation

Confirm aircraft compatibility, mounting interface and input voltage with the supplier before installation or applying power. Communication protocol documentation and host-computer tools are available from the supplier on request. Specifications are supplied by the manufacturer.

Laser Safety and Care

Do not look directly into the laser when ranging is enabled. Follow the supplied operating instructions. The manual prohibits use in rain, snow and sandstorms. Do not immerse or directly rinse the equipment. Power down before removing the payload, clean the optical surfaces with suitable lens-cleaning materials and store the unit securely in its case.
