Vertex RealSense Add-on

Getting Started

Step 1: Physical Installation

  1. Power off your Vertex One completely
  2. Locate the quick swap interface on the front of your drone
  3. Align the RealSense Add-on with the mounting points
  4. Gently push until it is in place. Note: the alignment pins need to be perfectly aligned to go in smoothly.
  5. Lock the add-on with the lever until you hear a click.

Safety First

Always ensure the drone is powered off and propellers are secured before installing or removing any add-ons.

Step 2: Software Setup

To give a headstart of using the Realsense Add-on, a example container is provided that can be used as a starting point. This container allows you to use the Realsense for the livestream functionality and for custom development projects. The following link redirects you to the example container:
