Height and distance control for airport vehicles

Assistance for aircraft tractors

By monitoring a pre-defined area, the 3D sensor can either provide an end position message or a contour image of the nose wheel to the machine control system.

 

Positioning assistance for support vehicles

More than 1,000 individual measurements precisely detect the target area of the aircraft. Customer-specific application solutions can be implemented fast and easily using altogether 64 'regions of interest' (ROIs), i.e. individual regions whose distances are to be monitored.

 

Height control for tankers

The integrated distance function 'minimum distance' can monitor up to 64 selectable points above the tanker simultaneously. The driver can, for example, be supported when he positions the tanker underneath the aeroplane wing or is informed if the wing is lowered.
