GENERAL DESCRIPTION
IDS GeoRadar S.r.l. MNG/2017/009 Rev 1.1 13/ 54
▪ Angular coverage (thanks to the Pan-Tilt Movement): 120°.
HYDRA-U:
▪ Maximum operational distance: 200 m;
▪ Image resolution in distance: 0.2 m;
▪ Angular resolution: 8 mrad;
▪ Accuracy in measuring displacements in the viewing direction: 0.1
mm;
▪ Radiation Cone (without considering the Pan-Tilt Movement): 26° H
× 25° V;
▪ Angular coverage (thanks to the Pan-Tilt Movement): 120°.
4.2 System Features
Some of the features of the HYDRA system are:
▪ Permits the operator to perform remote monitoring of the area
(remote sensing), without needing to access the critical area;
▪ Supplies a continuous displacement map of the entire area. The
HYDRA system simultaneously measures all the displacements of the
entire area illuminated by the antenna beam;
▪ Directly measure the displacements of the territory of interest in real
time;
▪ It can be used also in dark conditions providing a visual feedback
thanks to its infrared camera (except HYDRA G LP model);
▪ Permits the autonomous DEM reconstruction of the monitored area,
without the need of an external model of the terrain (only for HYDRA
U model);
▪ Permits the positioning of each monitored point directly on an image
from the Camera (only for HYDRA G LP model)
▪ It doesn’t require the continuous presence of an operator and can be
remotely controlled through Ethernet connection;
▪ It can be deployed in less than 30 minutes and it can be transported
by a single person.
