Volacopter LZ73-PRO Bird Deterrence and Surveillance UAV

Description
Specifications

The Volacopter LZ73-PRO is a vertical take-off/landing UAV designed for professionals. Its main application is bird and wildlife control and deterrence for industries like agriculture, seaports, heavy industry, industrial rooftops and solar farms. The UAV is equipped with a powerful acoustic module, emitting Volacom’s proprietary acoustic startle reflex-inducing signal and efficiently driving off birds and animals away from protected zones without allowing habituation to the emitted signal, nor causing harm or stress to species.

The platform is made of light materials like carbon and aluminium and achieves flight times of up to 50 min on a single charge. It is manually operated through the included remote control module or automatically through the built-in navigation software and mission programming capabilities. Two HD cameras for control, inspection, and surveillance are also included as а standard equipment, whereas one can be replaced with a thermal imaging camera for improved visibility in adverse weather conditions and night time.

The Volacopter is appropriate for wildlife control at airport adjacent areas, surveillance and perimeter control, as well as aerial photography.

Every product and technological solution developed and offered by Volacom is completely harmless to avian, terrestrial and marine animal species, in line with the company’s policy to preserve biodiversity and protect wildlife and businesses at the same time. The technology’s safety was tested and established through scientific studies carried out by the WWF, The University of Veterinary Medicine, Vienna and the Bulgarian Academy of Sciences. Volacom is ISO 9001 and ISO 45 001 certified. The company’s BCAS bird control technology is patented in the US and Russia.
