Atmos, the Dutch drone manufacturer that develops high-end VTOL fixed-wing drones (Marlyn Cobalt) for surveying and mapping applications, integrates the Sony α7R mark III and IV cameras, and increases the coverage and accuracy achieved in a single flight.
What’s a Rich Text element?
The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.

“Sony is a well-known industry-leading brand when it comes to drone surveying payloads” said Joost Bouman, Head of Production and Founding Partner at Atmos. “We have been working with Sony since 2016, and the combination of great price-value ratio with high quality sensors, is one of the reasons we are so happy with this long-lasting relationship. Their responsiveness and the continuous support we have with regards to the development and integration of new cameras, have been very valuable to us.” he concluded.

Both cameras have an ISO of 32000 (expandable to 102400) and camera sensors with high mega pixel count (42,4MP for the α7R ΙΙΙ, and 61MP for the α7R IV respectively) which when combined with Zeiss’ 35mm (α7R III) and 21mm (α7R IV) lenses will enable drone surveyors to achieve GSD (Ground Sample Distance) levels below one centimeter. The integration of these two new cameras will provide users of Marlyn Cobalt, Atmos’ leading drone, with increased coverage and accuracy, allowing them to map an area of 210 hectares (an area equal to almost 300 football fields) with centimeter-level accuracy in a single flight. “When it comes to land and construction surveying applications, we see that Sony cameras are always the number one choice for professional users,” said Vasilis Tziampiris, Marketing Lead at Atmos. “We are excited to increase our users’ capacity and further improve their results in the field!” he added.
Yasuo Baba, Director of Digital Imaging and European Product Marketing, Sony Digital Imaging Europe added: “Every time we launch an updated version of our SDK (Software Development Kit), we see the applications multiply and aerial footage is a particularly exciting area. We are very proud to be working in close collaboration with Atmos, bring the best of our camera technology to their drones and delivering unparalleled image quality for their users.”
