Overview
Ping2020 is the world’s smallest and lightest full range ADS-B transceiver. ADS-B helps aircraft operators sense and avoid possible collisions through a constant exchange of real time position data. ADS-B is mandated by the FAA for all aircraft in the U.S. National Airspace by 2020. Used now primarily on manned aircraft, uAvionix has miniaturized the equipment to make it usable for small drones. ping2020 measures 25mm x 39mm x 12mm, which is a fraction of the size of earlier units. At just 20 grams, ping2020 is ideal for UAS applications to improve safety with minimal impact to capability and performance. ping2020 detects ADS-B aircraft within a 100 statute mile radius in real time, dramatically improving drone operator awareness of threats in the area including aircraft beyond line of sight.
