This paper presents a designed and created prototype of stabilized UAV gimbal for day-night surveillance. There is a need for UAV gimbals capable of stable target detection and tracking, regardless the time of the day. The prototype gimbal is capable of pan and tilt rotations in range of full 360 degrees with 10 bit turning resolution. Full turn takes approximately 1.2s. The gimbal itself and possible future external devices are able to communicate via extended VISCA protocol and RS-232C standard. Performed tests and evaluations have shown promising results regardless the time of the day. The presented gimbal shows a great potential for target detection and tracking using UAVs and developing more sophisticated algorithms for stabilization.
