HD59

The HD59 from Trillium Engineering is a compact 5.8-inch EO/IR gimbal developed for sUAS, mid-sized platforms, and launched effects. Designed to meet low SWaP constraints, it supports long-range reconnaissance, medium-range ISR, and multi-domain operations. All models incorporate onboard AI/ML processing, precision geopointing, and multi-sensor payloads tailored for situational awareness in environments where GPS may be denied or degraded.

The series includes three configurations aligned with diverse mission requirements. The HD59-LLVV features dual LWIR and dual EO sensors with 180x visible zoom, optimized for daylight and nighttime operations. The HD59-MLVV introduces MWIR capability for extended-range identification, while maintaining visible and infrared coverage. The HD59-MLVS integrates MWIR, LWIR, EO, SWIR, and a 50 mJ laser designator in a unit weighing under 2 kg. Each variant supports ISR tasks such as border security, maritime domain awareness, infrastructure monitoring, and extended defense operations requiring a reliable, low SWaP-C imaging solution.
