Packing more megapixels and better optics than any drone its size, Skydio X10 boasts high resolution visual and radiometric cameras in modular sensor packages. So you can capture the right details for your job.
The telephoto camera on the VT300-Z sensor package enables you to detect objects, vehicles, and humans as soon as they enter your field of view — giving you the visual clarity to make to make critical decisions quickly.
Skydio X10 is the first drone ever to integrate a Teledyne FLIR Boson+ sensor, delivering the highest quality thermal imaging. Capable of resolutions of 640x512 and offering increased sensitivity down to <=30mK, X10 delivers more accurate radiometric readings, anywhere, anytime.
With thermal module
Unmatched thermal sensitivity
The Boson+ sensor is 40% more sensitive than comparable thermal units on the market
Unparalleled image clarity
640x512 thermal resolution combined with radiometry and advanced AGC enables the clearest thermal images
Sharper, clearer imagery
Onboard image optimization algorithms enhance detail in distant objects and improve overall aesthetic for easier interpretation
The sensor packages on the Skydio X10 supercharge your sight, enabling you to capture it all in high-definition. Because the data is in the details.
Off-the-shelf components couldn’t deliver the image quality our customers deserve. So, we engineered our own lenses. Achieve unrivaled resolution and superior focus with lenses you won’t find anywhere else.
Pixel perfect images. Improve white balance, de-noise photos, extend HDR capabilities and more with sensors backed by the powerful Spectra 480 image signal processor.
Highest quality zoom. Maintain superior image quality even in zoomed-in shots through a compact transition zoom system.
Faster exposure times. Get outstanding images in lowlight, with custom wide aperture f/1.8 and f/2.2 lenses that allow 1.7-3.5x more light than competitors.
Fly without limits or learning curves. With a drone that recognizes its surroundings, captures data automatically, and gets smarter over time.
Backed by an onboard NVIDIA Jetson Orin GPU, the X10 harnesses unrivaled computing power to make the right decisions in real-time. Six custom-designed navigation lenses provide 360-degree visibility, eliminating blind spots so you can fly fearlessly in any environment.
