Sony and Gremsy collaborate to deliver premium drone imaging solutions

As the drone market keeps expanding, Sony and Gremsy are delighted to announce today the latest addition to their line up aimed at creating all in one solutions for drone users and manufacturers: the Pixy LR S-Port gimbal, developed for a plug and play integration with Sony's dedicated drone camera, the ILX-LR1, will bring agility, reliability and lightness to any drone payload to further optimize drone operation in terms of flight time versus data capture and data availability for processing.

For the Sony ILX-LR1 camera, Gremsy has already developed a gimbal, the PIXY LR (Standard version) with full customization capabilities specialized for professional drone makers and a Pixy LR S-Port, designed for users who want a plug-and-play solution that facilitates the payload-swift process. This July 7, Gremsy released a gimbal called PIXY MR, integrating LR1 camera with DJI M300/M350 drone platforms. All Gremsy's gimbals aim to maximize the ILX-LR1 functionality in industrial applications by enhancing the overall performance and data processing capabilities.

The Sony ILX-LR1 is built around a back-illuminated Exmor R CMOS imaging sensor and Sony's exclusive BIONZ XR processors, which can deliver images continuously at up to three frames per second for an extended period and 8 frames per second in burst if required. This makes the body ideal for aerial mapping, inspection and surveying missions which require high precision with high resolution, and high flexibility of lens choice. What's more, it is compatible with Sony's SDK, for the remote controlling of different features.
