Shendu Group is a leading high-technology company founded in 2016, specializing in the research, development, and manufacturing of advanced optoelectronic systems and precision inertial navigation solutions. We provide mission-critical technology for aerospace, defense, marine, and automotive applications, enabling superior perception, guidance, and stabilization for both unmanned and manned platforms.
What are your core products and technologies?
Our expertise is focused on three core technological areas:
Precision Gimbal Cameras: High-performance EO/IR (Electro-Optical/Infrared) camera systems for surveillance, reconnaissance, and targeting.
Guidance Heads: Advanced seeker technology for precision guidance and navigation.
Stabilization Platforms: Systems designed to isolate payloads from platform movement for clear imaging and accurate targeting.
Inertial Navigation Systems (INS): Robust, high-accuracy navigation solutions that combine inertial sensors (IMUs) with GNSS (like GPS, BeiDou) for reliable positioning where satellite signals are degraded or unavailable.
What does "vertically integrated manufacturing" mean?
Vertical integration means we control the entire production process, from initial design and R&D to component manufacturing, assembly, software development, and final testing. This allows us to:
Ensure stringent quality control at every stage.
Reduce costs by eliminating third-party markups.
Accelerate prototyping and custom development.
Protect our intellectual property and maintain technological sovereignty.
What is your company's mission?
Our systems support a vast range of applications, including:
Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs): Autonomous navigation, security, and logistics.
Unmanned Surface/Subsurface Vessels (USVs): Oceanography, hydrographic survey, and maritime security.
Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs): Deep-sea exploration, pipeline inspection, and seabed mapping (up to 3000m depth).
Manned Systems: Advanced driver-assistance systems (ADAS), stabilization for marine vessels, and navigation for aerospace.
What makes your inertial navigation systems (INS) "robust"?
Our INS solutions are designed for reliability in challenging conditions. Key features include:
GNSS-Denied Operation: They continue to provide accurate navigation for extended periods even if satellite signals are lost, jammed, or spoofed.
High Shock & Vibration Resistance: Built to military-grade standards to withstand harsh environments.
Sensor Fusion: Advanced algorithms fuse data from multiple sensors (IMU, GNSS, magnetometers, barometers) to provide a resilient and accurate position, velocity, and attitude (PVA) solution.
Do you offer custom solutions or only standard products?
Yes, we specialize in both. While we have a portfolio of standard products, our vertical integration and core team’s expertise make us exceptionally agile in developing custom solutions. We can modify existing designs or create entirely new systems to meet specific size, weight, power, and performance (SWaP-C) requirements.
What is your depth rating for marine systems?
We support underwater applications at depths of up to 3000 meters, making our technology suitable for the vast majority of deep-sea exploration and industrial tasks.
Capabilities & Expertise
With a founding date of 2016, how do you have over 15 years of experience?
While Shendu Group was officially incorporated in 2016, our core team of engineers and scientists has been working together for over 15 years in the fields of optoelectronics and navigation. This deep collective experience forms the foundation of our innovation and product reliability.
What is your intellectual property portfolio?
We hold 11 patents covering our core mechanical, optical, and electronic innovations, and 22 software copyrights protecting our proprietary algorithms for image processing, sensor fusion, stabilization, and navigation. This strong IP portfolio demonstrates our commitment to original R&D.
What is your rapid prototyping capability?
Because we control our manufacturing chain, we can move from a design concept to a functional prototype much faster than companies reliant on external suppliers. This allows for rapid iteration, testing, and validation, significantly shortening our clients’ development cycles.
Factory & Visit Information
Can we visit your factory?
Yes, we welcome serious potential clients and partners for factory visits. Seeing our vertically integrated manufacturing process firsthand is the best way to understand our quality, scale, and capabilities. All visits are by prior appointment only to ensure we can dedicate the necessary time and resources to make your visit productive.
Where is your factory located?
Our state-of-the-art manufacturing and R&D facilities are located in [Insert City/Province, e.g., Shenzhen, Guangdong Province], China. The exact address and directions will be provided upon confirmation of your visit appointment.
What should we keep in mind when visiting the factory?
To ensure a smooth, safe, and valuable visit, please note:
Appointment Required: Contact our sales team well in advance to schedule your visit.
Confidentiality: Some areas may contain proprietary technology and may be subject to non-disclosure agreements (NDAs).
Safety: Please follow all safety instructions provided by your guide, including wearing any required personal protective equipment (PPE) in specific zones.
Delegate List: Providing a list of attendees in advance helps us tailor the tour to your group’s interests
Is there a time limit for visiting the factory?
We typically allocate 2-3 hours for a standard comprehensive tour to cover key production stages without being rushed. However, we can customize the duration based on your specific interests and the depth of technical discussion required.
Will we have a guide during the factory tour?
Yes, absolutely. We will arrange professional technical and sales staff to guide you throughout the visit. They will provide a detailed introduction to each production stage, from raw material inspection and PCB assembly to precision machining, system integration, and rigorous quality control testing. This ensures you gain a comprehensive understanding of our processes and build confidence in our product quality.
Can we understand every step of the production process during the visit?
Our guided tour is designed to provide a comprehensive overview of our entire vertically integrated process. You will see key stages such as SMT assembly for electronic boards, precision machining of components, gimbal assembly and calibration, environmental testing (like vibration and temperature chambers), and final system integration. Our experts will explain each step’s function and how it contributes to our final product quality.
Orders & Support
Can we place an order directly after the visit?
While the visit is a great step towards a partnership, a formal order is typically placed after a subsequent commercial proposal and contract negotiation. However, the visit will equip you with all the necessary information to make a final decision, and our team will be on hand to immediately discuss the next steps, including drafting a formal quotation based on your confirmed requirements.
Do you offer international sales and support?
Yes, we are a global technology provider and support clients worldwide. We have the infrastructure to handle international logistics, export compliance, and provide technical support remotely and, when necessary, on-site.
What kind of technical support do you provide?
We offer comprehensive support, including:
Pre-sales technical consultation
System integration guidance and documentation
Software Development Kits (SDKs) and API access
On-site or remote training
Maintenance and repair services
