Leveraging its recognized expertise in mechatronics for motion systems, iXblue has designed Leos, the POS series’ latest system, to meet today’s needs for loading modular optronic payloads, especially – but not only – on a commander’s panoramic sights, which requires high levels of stabilization.
Embarking with payloads of more than 15kg, iXblue’sLeos enables very accurate two-axis gyrostabilization and pointing features.The new system is extremely robust to shock, which makes it particularly convenient for severe mechanical environments, including weapon firing. It is very compact, can suit all communication protocols, and is easy to integrate and adapt to new payloads. It offers a high level of reliability and a low cost of ownership thanks to the low maintenance requirements over time. Depending on the situation, Leos can be offered as a turnkey solution or it can be customized to the specific needs of the customer. |
