MTF 01 Optical Sensor Module (PMW3901 + 8M Ranging Integrated) Why you need it Accurate UAV positioning: The PMW3901 optical flow sensor delivers reliable motion tracking to reduce drift and improve hover stability, especially where GPS is weak or unavailable. Built-in ranging for altitude awareness: The integrated 8M Ranging feature provides distance information out to 8 meters, helping with precision takeoff, landing, and obstacle avoidance. Simple integration: Delivered as a compact sensor module, the MTF 01 is ready to add optical flow and ranging capability to drone platforms and compatible positioning systems. Key benefits Improved flight stability: Optical flow sensing from the PMW3901 supports smoother, more precise positioning and heading control. Enhanced safety and reliability: Combined optical flow and up-to-8 m ranging lowers the risk of rough landings and improves operation in confined or GPS-denied environments. Versatile applicability: Designed for UAVs and other unmanned platforms that require accurate relative-motion sensing and short-range distance data. Important attributes Function: Optical flow sensing (PMW3901) plus integrated 8M Ranging for combined motion and distance feedback. Compatibility: Intended for use with UAVs and positioning systems that accept optical flow and range sensor modules. Form factor: Supplied as an integrated module for straightforward installation (module-level solution preserves existing wiring and mounting options). Performance: Enables precise relative positioning and short-range distance measurement to support improved navigation and control. Practical use scenarios Indoor inspection and mapping: Maintain stable position and smooth motion control inside warehouses, factories, or buildings where GPS cannot be relied on. Precision landing and takeoff: Use optical flow for steady lateral positioning and the 8M ranging sensor to manage descent and obstacle clearance during approach. Low-altitude waypoint hovering and inspection: Combine motion sensing and short-range distance feedback to hold position accurately while capturing imagery or performing close-range inspections. What makes MTF 01 stand out Uses the proven PMW3901 optical flow sensor paired with integrated 8M Ranging for a combined solution that addresses both motion tracking and short-range distance needs. Module form factor simplifies addition to UAV platforms without the need for separate range and flow components. Designed to improve positioning performance where GPS alone is insufficient.
