Automated closed loop
The drone nest provides constant-temperature storage, automatic charging, and environmental monitoring, while the drone can take off autonomously.
Drone Hive
XCDH-2(S)A
The XCDH-2(S)A intelligent drone station is a fully automatic take-off and landing, charging, and data management base station specifically designed for the XCD-2 quadcopter unmanned aerial vehicle. This system is deeply integrated with the unmanned aerial vehicle to form a complete unmanned operation ecosystem. It enables "7×24-hour unmanned operation, all-terrain coverage, and instant response" for inspection operations.
Technical Features
TECHNICAL FEATURES
High-precision perception
The drone is equipped with a four‑channel gimbal camera—featuring a 48‑megapixel wide‑angle lens, a 48‑megapixel telephoto lens, a 640×512 thermal imager, and a 1.5‑km laser rangefinder—enabling it to detect defects down to the “pin‑head” level.
Multi-scenario compatibility
Covering seven major application scenarios—power, emergency response, fire protection, security, construction, and oil & gas—this solution reduces the time required for operations in complex terrains from an entire day to just a few tens of minutes, while increasing daily inspection mileage fivefold. The combined operating mode further expands the scope of operations.
Intelligent Diagnosis
The cloud platform supports point cloud processing, AI‑based defect detection, and automated report generation, enabling end-to-end digitalization across the entire workflow—from data acquisition and analysis to decision‑making.

-
Four-Color Camera
A gimbal-mounted camera integrating four types of sensors—wide-angle, telephoto, infrared, and laser rangefinding—serves as the drone’s core perception module.
-
Point Cloud Processing
The process of processing, denoising, and classifying 3D point cloud data acquired by LiDAR.
-
AI Visual Analytics
Based on deep learning algorithms, perform object recognition (e.g., defects, personnel, vehicles) on images and videos captured by drones.
-
Hovering accuracy
The ability of a drone to maintain positional stability at a specified altitude is categorized into vertical and horizontal accuracy.
-
IP protection rating
Standards for assessing the dust- and water-proof capabilities of equipment: the system’s drone nest is rated IP54, and the drone itself is also rated IP54.
-
Battery life
The single full‑charge flight duration of the drone is 50 minutes for the XCD‑2.
-
Image transmission distance
The image transmission range between the drone and the ground station or drone nest supports a radius of 10 km.
