smartmicro Drone Altimeter featured in the PX4 documentation
For drone developers and integrators, documentation matters. It helps make sensor integration more accessible, transparent, and easier to evaluate for real-world UAV applications.
The PX4 documentation includes smartmicro’s Drone Altimeter as a radar-based DroneCAN distance sensor for UAV applications. It is also listed among the supported rangefinders, with an altitude range of 1 m to 175 m and suitability for GNSS-denied environments.
This is a valuable step for making our radar altimeter technology more visible within the drone development ecosystem.
Designed for reliable altitude measurement, the smartmicro Drone Altimeter supports UAV applications where robust height-above-ground data is essential, including challenging environments where visibility-based sensing can reach its limits.
