Unmatched Clarity, Dual Sensor Power
The MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Kit offers unparalleled multispectral imaging capabilities by combining two five-band sensors in a single, streamlined payload. Designed for agricultural professionals, researchers, and agronomists, this kit delivers synchronized outputs across 10 distinct spectral bands, including RGB and Near-Infrared (NIR).
Whether you're analyzing plant health, measuring chlorophyll content, or generating high-resolution orthomosaics, the RedEdge-P Dual gives you the precision and flexibility to do it all in one flight.
Key Features of the MicaSense RedEdge-P Dual Multispectral Kit
- 10 Spectral Bands, One Seamless Capture: Combines the power of two RedEdge-P sensors—each with five bands—capturing RGB, Red, Green, Blue, NIR, and five narrow multispectral bands for comprehensive analytics.
- Synchronized Dual-Camera Output: Automatically stitches calibrated, co-aligned imagery from both cameras into a single dataset, simplifying your post-processing workflow.
- High-Resolution Panchromatic Imagery: Capture sharp detail with 1.6 cm/pixel GSD at 60m AGL, enabling pan-sharpened multispectral outputs.
- Plug-and-Play Integration with DJI SkyPort: Fully compatible with DJI drone platforms using SkyPort adapters—ideal for Matrice series users.
- Calibrated, Scientific-Grade Data: Comes with a calibration panel and downwelling light sensor (DLS) to ensure radiometric accuracy across flights.
- Multi-Platform Flexibility: Works seamlessly with fixed-wing and multirotor UAVs using MicaSense integration kits.
-
Rugged Field-Ready Design: Built to withstand real-world conditions with industrial-grade materials, passive cooling, and robust enclosures.
Precision Imaging for Data-Driven Agriculture
From row crops to orchards, vineyards to research plots, the RedEdge-P Dual provides the actionable data agronomists and growers need to make informed decisions. Unlike single-sensor multispectral cameras, this dual setup delivers a wider range of crop insights—without compromising on spatial resolution or workflow simplicity.
Real-World Use Cases for the RedEdge-P Dual
- Chlorophyll & NDVI Monitoring: Track plant stress and nutrient levels with high-fidelity NDVI, NDRE, and other vegetation indices.
- Precision Irrigation Planning: Identify over- or under-watered areas using multispectral reflectance data.
- Yield Forecasting & Crop Scouting: Use accurate imagery to estimate yield and guide on-the-ground scouting.
- Disease & Pest Detection: Spot early signs of disease or pest pressure before they spread.
-
Research & Trials: Capture consistent, scientific-grade data for academic or field trials.
Payload Capabilities
The RedEdge-P Dual system is engineered for versatility. Both sensors are perfectly synchronized, offering 10 bands with minimal parallax and distortion. Key payload features include:
- Dual SD Card Storage: Independent storage ensures fast write speeds and backup redundancy.
- Fast Triggering (up to 3 frames/sec): Capture images rapidly for smooth, overlapping coverage even at higher drone speeds.
-
Metadata-Rich Files: Each image is geotagged with GPS, light, and angle information for use in post-processing software like Pix4D, Agisoft Metashape, and more.
