I can't find anything in the Mavic 2 marketing information that talks about a Vision Compass, but I'm going to guess that it very likely is using the same (or newer version) as the Mavic Air. Here is the marketing blurb from the Mavic Air portion of their website about this topic:
"The Vision Compass will assist the navigation system to estimate flight direction when the compass experiences interference. When only one direction of the front, bottom, or rear vision systems is functioning normally, the aircraft will still position itself successfully. There are two sets of sensor fusion algorithms based on two independent hardware platforms. When an error occurs to one set of algorithms, the aircraft will switch to the other pair seamlessly to resume normal functionality."
There was some pretty detailed discussion about the vision compass on the MA on the Mavicpilots forum in the past. My guess, is that it’s also incorporated some how in the M2P.
Side note, nice stream last night David. Enjoyed the content. Got my new M2P today, one day early. Also just noticed your new M2P icon. First I’ve seen. |
