R&D: HiView’s Crop Monitoring Pole in Development
June 28, 2025
We’re thrilled to announce that the Rapid Eye XS finally has its own home online: www.rapideyexs.com
After years of testing, tweaking, and using it in the field, in collaboration with FutureWater, our very own near-infrared camera system is now available for anyone to order — straight from our new webshop. Whether you're flying drones or using the Crop Monitoring Pole, the Rapid Eye XS helps you spot crop stress early with clear and reliable NDVI images.
December 18, 2024
Throughout 2024 and 2025, HiView is actively developing a new tool in its portfolio: the Crop Monitoring Pole (CMP).
The CMP is a highly mobile, ultra-tall pole (12 metres) with a camera mounted at the top — typically HiView’s own Rapid Eye XS, a near-infrared camera designed specifically for agricultural use (www.rapideyexcs.com). Real-time imagery is displayed at the base of the pole via a tablet or smartphone, with full control of the camera using a handheld remote.
