Unlock unmatched clarity: DXOMARK camera testing tools for drones and dash cams

Cameras that move — such as those in drones and especially in-action cameras  require their own specialized strategies. It is no longer acceptable to repackage a standard camera. Users expect high-performance image stabilization even from rapidly moving cameras, and high-quality video even in quickly changing lighting and scene conditions. Recording quality video despite extreme motion is among the unique challenges facing drone camera designers. In addition to all the same challenges of mobile device cameras, drones and action cameras require particular attention to stabilization under extremely adverse conditions, especially when it comes to controlling judder. Users also expect drone and action cameras to feature a broad set of capabilities, including zoom and HDR, all in a light and small package at relatively low cost. Moreover, consumers have come to expect competing manufacturers to offer AI-enhanced image and video processing computational imaging. Further, commercial drones also require measurement accuracy and reliability.

Engineering Services

With our industry-leading expertise, we rigorously test key factors such as image sharpness, dynamic range, color accuracy, and low-light capabilities. Whether capturing fast-action shots or breathtaking aerial footage, our services ensure your cameras deliver unmatched image quality and reliability in any environment.

With DXOMARK’s testing services, you gain access to in-depth analysis and actionable insights, allowing you to enhance your camera’s performance and create content that stands out.

Testing Tools

 Our experts have designed specific tools to evaluate camera color, texture, and contrast in HDR and extremely low-light conditions, along with video stabilization — a key component for these types of cameras. Moving cameras also need to take wide-angle shots while avoiding distortion and to have coherent and uniform performance all across the field.

Our Analyzer product line not only helps you evaluate these image-quality attributes, but also tests automatic white balance, automatic exposure, and noise under challenging lighting scenarios simulated by our lighting system.

Optimize camera output for all surroundings

Leverage DXOMARK’s trusted testing methodologies and metrics to ensure your drone or action cameras achieve the pinnacle of image and color accuracy.
