Video Processing System (VPS)
CCT Part No. 900-90026-00
The VPS is an embedded video processing engine for both NTSC and PAL video standards engineered by Cloud Cap Technology.
The VPS hosts a number of video processing functions that can be used either passively such as providing a stabilized video stream tagged with metadata, or as an active feedback element in positioning systems such as providing object tracking rate commands to gimbals.
The inclusion of the VPS will increase the performance of all gimbals, from small servo based systems to the most sophisticated multi-million dollar platforms. Custom integration of the VPS can be provided by Cloud Cap Technology.
Key Features
- Video Stabilization - Converts jittery video into rock solid imagery with mosaic borders
- Object Tracking - Tracks selected objects in the video using an adjustable box size with occlusion coasting
- Scene Steering - Provides gimbal steering feedback based on the video scene allowing users to steer with traditional joystick commands without having to "chase the scene"
- Embedded Metadata - Tags the video with invisible digital metadata which can be transmitted and decoded over conventional analog video transmitters
- On Screen Overlays - Allows users to select a wide range of data to be pasted on the video
- Geo-location Estimation - Provides Kalman filter based estimates of target location
- Download the VPS Data Sheet for specifications and dimensions.
- Download the VPS ICD for interface protocols and specifications for the Video Processing System.

TASE 3AX Deployment Mechanism
CCT Part No. 900-01398-00
The TASE 3AX Camera Gimbal Deployment Mechanism provides a solution for the TASE gimbal to retract into the aircraft during launch, belly-landing and normal operations. It is a compact, robust, light-weight, and low-cost deployment system. When retracted, roll and nod operations prevent gimbal lock while looking directly below the aircraft. The 3AX also provides emergency retract logic if loss of main power occurs.
Key Features
- Overall package size is 135mm (5.3”) wide, 210mm (8.3”) long, 170mm (6.7”) height, with actuator arm swinging 20mm (0.8”) higher in actuation
- Weight 280g (without TASE gimbal)
- Power Consumption is less than 3W during actuation, 1W max when deployed or retracted
- T8-20 volts DC
- Retraction control through the TASE gimbal
