Helion Thermal
AI-powered thermal imaging for critical applications.
Helion is GarudX's advanced thermal imaging payload, combining a high-resolution radiometric thermal sensor with onboard AI processing. Capable of real-time temperature mapping and anomaly detection, Helion is used across industries from infrastructure inspection (detecting hotspots in electrical systems) to search and rescue (locating persons in low-visibility conditions). The sensor integrates directly with the Skyreaper's stabilized gimbal for vibration-free imaging.
