4K Zoom Payload Built for Precision Inspection and Surveillance
The Gremsy Zio is a high-resolution zoom payload built for operators who need reliable visual data at distance. It is verified compatible with the WISPR SkyScout Series, making it a ready-to-deploy payload for operators already working within that platform.
Paired with a 1/2.5" Sony Exmor R CMOS sensor and a three-axis stabilized gimbal, it delivers 4K video and 8.51 MP stills with the stability and clarity that inspection, surveying, and public safety missions demand.
At a Glance
- Sony Exmor R sensor: 1/2.5" CMOS delivers 8.51 MP stills at 4K clarity.
- Optical zoom: 20x optical reach covers distant targets without repositioning the aircraft.
- Super Resolution zoom: 30x Super Resolution extends range for detailed subject identification.
- Combined zoom: 240x combined mode supports extreme close-up photography from altitude.
- Three-axis stabilization: ±0.01° vibration control maintains sharp imagery throughout flight.
- Pan range: ±320° controllable pan covers wide-area surveillance without rotating the aircraft.
- Dual video output: HDMI at 1080p60 and Ethernet at 720p30 enable flexible ground streaming.
- Defog mode: Low, Mid, and High settings restore image clarity in hazy or smoky conditions.
- QGroundControl support: native software integration simplifies mission planning and payload control.
- Broad compatibility: PX4 and ArduPilot support connects the Zio to the WISPR SkyScout Series.
In the field, the Zio earns its place where detail determines the outcome. A 20x optical zoom, extendable to 30x via Super Resolution, lets operators identify structural defects, read markings, or track subjects without repositioning the aircraft.
Pan coverage of ±320° and a tilt range that sweeps from directly overhead to well below the horizon means the camera follows the target, not the other way around.
Built for Operators Who Cannot Afford Blurry Data
The Gremsy Zio exists to solve one persistent field problem: capturing usable, high-resolution imagery from a moving platform in conditions where imprecision has consequences.
Power consumption scales between 12W and 48W depending on load, input voltage accepts a wide range from 14.5V to 52V, and the detachable bottom mount allows quick payload changes between missions. Connectivity options include USB 2.0, UART, Ethernet, and Micro HDMI, covering both control and output needs from a single payload.
Footage is recorded in MP4 format at up to 3840 x 2160 at 30fps, or 1920 x 1080 at 60fps for smoother motion capture. A 64GB MicroSDXC card is included, and the Zio operates reliably across temperatures from 32°F to 122°F (0°C to 50°C).
Exposure modes cover Auto, Shutter Speed, Iris, Bright, and Manual, giving operators control over image parameters when lighting conditions shift mid-mission.
Who This Payload Is For
The Gremsy Zio is the right tool for infrastructure inspectors who need to read serial numbers on tower equipment from 300 feet, for surveyors who require consistent frame quality across long mapping runs, and for public safety teams that need to positively identify a subject without closing the distance.
The defog function, multi-mode zoom, and dual video output address the three most common failure points in aerial visual data collection: atmospheric interference, insufficient reach, and ground station visibility.
The Gremsy Zio is not a general-purpose camera. It is a purpose-built inspection payload, and that focus is exactly what makes it reliable across demanding, repeatable mission cycles.
