Skylink Software

The gimbal’s user interface is just as important as the hardware - an effective interface reduces workload, minimizes training, and allows missions to be executed flawlessly. Trillium’s SkyLink was designed with the operator in mind, emphasizing ease of use, stability, post-mission analysis, and compelling features.

SkyLink is a fully integrated gimbal user interface that does not require additional implementation of communication protocol to get it to work with your system. Trillium imaging systems automatically utilize SkyLink software without further system configuration.

• Intuitive user interface
  
• Automatically finds and connects to gimbals on the network or a serial port

• Integration with AIS receiver

Through Trillium’s advanced Splash-To-Target functionality and Target Location Estimator (TLE), defense applications have more precise target intelligence. Skylink’s TLE uses sensors and algorithms, to detect and track the target. In addition to the target’s position, Skylink also reports velocity, and other identifying characteristics that can be critical to a mission's success.
