About Skydio X10
X10 combines six navigation cameras and NVIDIA Jetson Orin compute for onboard obstacle avoidance, route execution and visual navigation. Sensor packages include a 50-megapixel one-inch wide camera, 64-megapixel narrow camera, 48-megapixel telephoto camera and a 640-by-512 Boson+ radiometric thermal imager.
The IP55 aircraft reaches approximately 45 miles per hour, launches in under 40 seconds and flies for up to 40 minutes. Attachment bays accept lighting, communications and other modules, while Remote Ops and Dock for X10 support unattended or remotely supervised missions. Public-safety, utility and security teams use the platform for response, inspection and recurring site coverage.
