ABOUT

Closing India's payload gap.

India's UAV ecosystem is increasingly indigenous at the airframe level, while critical stabilized imaging payloads still depend heavily on imported hardware and control stacks.

Pixel Vault is building the payload layer in India: compact EO/IR systems backed by in-house stabilization electronics, motor control and firmware.

TECHNOLOGY

One control stack, engineered whole.

The critical control layer is engineered in-house: motor control, stabilization, embedded electronics and the video/data pipeline. Imaging sensor cores remain modular and swappable.

FAQ

Common questions.

Does Pixel Vault make EO/IR (electro-optical/infrared) thermal payloads?

Yes. The 3-Axis EO-IR Gimbal combines a 5MP electro-optical camera with a 320×240 thermal imaging sensor in a single stabilized, indigenously manufactured payload for tactical drones.

What makes Pixel Vault's gimbals ITAR-free?

Because the gimbal control boards, motor drivers, and firmware are designed and manufactured in-house in India, Pixel Vault's products carry no US export-control restrictions, unlike many imported gimbal platforms.

What is Pixel Vault's low-SWaP circular form factor?

The embedded control boards, including the Orbit Drive motor controller and Power Punch regulator, use a compact circular PCB layout optimized for low size, weight, and power (SWaP), suited to endurance-limited tactical drones.
