General
information |
The
Sky-Watch Huginn X1 is light helicopter UAV solution
designed and manufactured in Denmark. The Huginn
X1 is designed as a total solution capable of
handeling both exterior and interior recon flights.
Thanks to its interconnection of sensors. HUGINN
X1 is also the first of its kind that uses a multi-platform
system that makes it possible to change Airframe
and upgrade the system without adjusting the autopilot.
Its total autonomy ensures that the system can
be used by everyone ranging from the experienced
pilot to the person who has never used the system
before. The Sky-Watch's Huginn X1 can be used
for visual reconnaissance in disaster areas, fence
patrol, indoor inspection.

Variants
:
- Huginn X2: for military applications,
Sky Watch X2 is a UAV, developed specifically
to reduce military and civilian casualties. This
is made possible by giving soldiers a system that
facilitates everything from IED detention, fence
patrol, reconosence as well as thermal scanning.

Design |
The
Sky-Watch Huginn X1 is based on an advanced
plug-n-play system that utilises GPS, waypoint
navigation, IR laser and sonar and is capable
of providing detailed images and high definition
video. Huginn X1 is the first of its kind
to use a multi-platform system that enables
the user to change airframe and upgrade
the system without adjusting the autopilot.
|
Mobility |
The Sky-Watch can fly thanks to a quad
rotor design provides extremely favorable
flight characteristics. The Sky-Watch
Huginn X1 is equipped with four electric
brushless motors.
|
Accessories |
IR
sensors and sonar makes HUGINN X1 capable
of recognize its surrounding environment
thus preventing collision. GPS, waypoint
navigation, height hold, FSD, auto land
and takeoff makes HUGINN the total solution
for both external and internal inspection,
monitoring and reconnaissance tasks. The
Sky-Watch Huginn X1 is equipped with 12
megapixel Digital still camera with gyro
stabilized tilt and roll.

Usability |
Mine
clearance:
The Huginn X1 was developed also to be used
to create highly detailed map of minefield
area. Sky-Watch has been working in close
collaboration with Dan Church Aid to develop
a UAV that can blown over a mine field and
map it precisely and detailed.
Visual Inspection:
A Sky-Watch Huginn X1 UAV can be used for
visual inspection of practically inaccessible
constructions. Both for maintenance purposes
as well as during the construction phase
when errors are far cheaper to correct than
afterwards. It can also be used for inspecting
windmills, sea windmills, silos etc. For
this purpose the UAV uses FSD (Fixed Surface
Distance) which makes the UAV keep it's
distance and bearing to the surface fixed.
Environment:
Many lakes in Denmark suffer from pollution
from the surrounding areas. This means frequent
attacks of algae that pose a potential risk
to the species in and around the lakes.
Thus, many lakes are surveyed frequently
and water samples are collected from previously
designated positions in order to determine
the lakes’ condition. Sky-Watch is
developing Huginn X1 UAV that quickly and
efficiently collects samples from the water
without putting a boat in the water and
disturbing the lake.
