Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017207563A1] According to one aspect, the present description relates to a drone (10) designed for viewing a distant scene, comprising a flying platform (20) and at least one first camera (40) mechanically secured to the platform. The first camera (40) comprises an image sensor with a detection surface, an electro-optical system for creating images of the scene on the detection surface of the image sensor, able to give the camera a diagonal angular field of view of less than 47°. According to the first aspect, the electro-optical system comprises at least one first optical unit, which is fixed, comprising a plurality of optical dioptres, an electro-optical device with variable optical power able to adjust the focusing of the image on the detection surface, and a control unit controlling the electro-optical device.
