Anaren Integrated Radio (AIR) modules’
tiny size, low-power consumption, and
easy implementation make them suitable
for all kinds of short-range apps within
the “internet of things.” Consider AIR,
if you’re an OEM of:
> Sensors – whether the task is
monitoring vibration, humidity,
temperature, or another variable
– and regardless of your network
structure (point to multi-point, star
configuration, or self-healing mesh)
> Energy-management/smart-grid
devices – our new AIR module for
ZigBee® Standard applications may
be ideal for your wirelessly connected
smart appliance, smart meter, sensor/
thermostat, or other EMS component
> Building systems – including
HVAC/R, lighting, security, and more
> M2M/industrial controls – remote
switching, equipment monitoring,
low bit-rate data collection, just
to name a few

assembly, and with a dash speed of
55 knots, it delivers a rapid, eyes on-target and tracking performance.
Cursor on target (Co T) compliant
capabilities provide a point-and-click
feature for operators to acquire and
follow a target, while the unique
power distribution board allows
Maveric to also fly stealthy by not
emitting camera RF until the operator
decides."
In addition to being controlled via
a joystick, Maveric is capable of
autonomous operation from launch to
landing. You can launch it from a
tube or just give it a toss. Pertinent
specs include a cruise speed of 26 kt,
maximum altitude of 25,000 ft, and
45-90 min endurance — depending on
configuration — with a battery
recharge time of less than 30 sec. It is
extremely stealthy as it is shaped like
a bird and is inaudible if it's at least
100 m (328 ft) away from you.
Features include a retractable
gimbaled camera, onboard image
processing, and a choice of eight
flight modes. The company website
doesn't specify a base price, but the
Canadian government ordered five of
them a couple years ago for use in
Afghanistan coming in at about
$560,000 apiece, so you probably
won't be buying one to spot stray
dogs in your neighborhood. SV
