WELCOME !
Since 1996, Hi Cam has been involved in the field of UAVs, operating a range of platforms, advising clients, and supplying video solutions.
UAVs (Unmanned Aerial Vehicles) are enjoying an explosion of interest and investment.
They range from toy planes with cameras, to multi-million dollar satellite-guided flying robots.
TINY TECHNOLOGY
In 2001, Hi Cam released the world's first 4.8V CCD-based high-power micro video system designed specifically for aerial applications.
It was called the Micro 100, and was followed by the Pro 100. We drew on our years of experience with these products to develop the highly successful Pro X2 in 2005.
Hi Cam systems have been operating in 30 countries, operating on blimps, helicopters, planes, rockets, gliders, balloons, kites, live birds, and research UAVs around the world.
NOW SHIPPING - MV200 !
The new MV200, shown at left, is the 4th generation video transmitter from Hi Cam.
It includes the features of the popular Pro X2. But it adds extreme toughness and JR sockets integated into the body. The CCD camera and mic automatically receive power. Or connect a digicam for live preview.
The output has been increased to 500mW of RF power... amazing in such a tiny package.
We believe it's the most robust, crash-resistant transmitter ever created for R/C video.
The price is the same as the Pro X2.

SLR-VIEW !
One very neat application of live video is remote aerial photography: you can line up the shot before you take it.

UAV OUTBACK CHALLENGE
Congratulations to Mueller College for again winning the $10,000 prize for this annual event. The team used a Hi Cam system to win the 2007 Airborne Delivery Challenge, and has won it again for 2008!
QUEEN'S BATON
Hi Cam developed the two video systems installed in the Queen's Baton, shown below. At Buckingham Palace on 14 March 2005, in front of a giant screen to show live video from the baton, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth handed the baton to Elle Macpherson and Cathy Freeman, the first of thousands of runners to carry the baton around the world.

It reached Melbourne on 15 March 2006 for the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony. Here it was handed to the Queen, with an estimated viewing audience of 1.5 billion people worldwide.
