At its commissioning, some of the information gathered by the aircraft had not yet been updated. What caused the technical fault. But we have already addressed. At this stage, our cameras take the first picture of the car 50 meters and a second picture a half-second later. This allows us to calculate independently the speed at which it was traveling at the time. This is a fairly unique concept. The cameras are equipped with a three dimensional radar after the speeder far. But they do not take the photo at 50 meters, "he says.
