ACSL Inc., the leading Japanese drone manufacturer, today announced the launch of its new NDAA-compliant smart controller, TAITEN, upgrades to its advanced SAMO thermal camera payload for the SOTEN drone, and official collaboration with Teledyne FLIR’s Thermal by FLIR® Program. These announcements represent a significant step forward in ACSL’s mission to deliver powerful, secure, and flexible drone solutions for public safety and industrial inspection.

TAITEN, ACSL’s all-new NDAA-compliant smart controller, is purpose-built for real-world operations. It features a high-resolution 7” built-in display with 1500 nits of brightness and a rugged, IP54-rated weather-resistant design. Additional highlights include HDMI output, customizable function buttons, and full compatibility with the SOTEN small UAS. Designed from the ground up with field operators in mind, TAITEN offers exceptional clarity, durability, and control.

ACSL’s entry into the Thermal by FLIR® Program marks a major milestone in the company’s ongoing expansion into the U.S. market. The program, developed by Teledyne FLIR OEM, supports original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) with seamless integration of thermal camera modules and provides joint go-to-market support for new technologies. Both companies are collaborating on next-generation solutions that integrate ACSL’s drones with FLIR’s latest thermal modules and Prism ISP technology.

The new controller will be available in September through Frontier Precision.
