Aerobits Unveils advanced Tracking Solution for Drones

Aerobits has introduced an innovative product designed to improve the identification and tracking capabilities of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). The idME module was created in response to the recent release of the UAS Remote ID Standard – Specification for Remote ID and Tracking (F3411 − 19) by ASTM International,a leading standards organization.

Seamless Integration with Modern Technology

The idME module leverages Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) technology to facilitate drone operator identification and surveillance through contemporary mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets. This module can be effortlessly connected to the Pixhawk drone controller using a JST connector, ensuring a straightforward setup process.

Enhanced Functionality and Configuration

To achieve optimal performance, the idME module can be linked to a positioning source, allowing it to access GPS data and other critical parameters via the MAVLink protocol. Users can customize broadcast message content, such as the drone’s identification number and aircraft type, through AT commands. Additionally, the module offers various authentication options to enhance security. Its compact design and minimal power requirements make it suitable for even the most compact drones.

Conclusion

With the introduction of the idME module, Aerobits is setting a new standard in drone identification and tracking, aligning with regulatory requirements while providing users with a reliable and efficient solution.
