In last week’s blog, I shared with you some of the ways Skydio X2 was built to meet the needs of some of the drone industry’s most forward-thinking fleets. This week, I’d like to share some ideas about autonomy — what true autonomy is and why it matters, and how it will impact drone operations […]
DRONAMICS, the world’s leading middle-mile cargo drone developer and operator, today unveiled the first 5 airports in its European network of cargo droneports. The DRONAMICS European Droneport Network is the world’s first cargo droneport network and includes private airports and airport groups operating more than 35 airports in 11 European countries, connecting 300 million […]
u-blox, a provider of positioning and wireless communication technologies, announced that it supplied the high-accuracy GNSS technology that made possible the world’s largest swarm of drones. The record-breaking simultaneous flight of 2,198 miniature UAVs was launched into the night sky over Saint Petersburg, Russia, on September 3. The ten-minute long drone show included a flying […]
Mobile phones and other electronic devices made from an organic material that is thin, bendable and more powerful are now a step closer thanks to new research led by scientists at The Australian University (ANU). Mobile phones and other electronic devices made from an organic material that is thin, bendable and more powerful are now […]
New system employs a deep neural network to overcome the challenge of ground-effect turbulence https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bfxPxg9rqk&feature=youtu.be https://youtu.be/FLLsG0S78ik Landing multi-rotor drones smoothly is difficult. Complex turbulence is created by the airflow from each rotor bouncing off the ground as the ground grows ever closer during a descent. This turbulence is not well understood nor is it easy […]
Drones & Dams They’re quiet, they capture crucial high-definition images and, most of all, they’re safer. Widely used in utility equipment inspections and wildfire mitigation efforts, drones have quickly become an essential tool for Southern California Edison (SCE) in its dam safety inspections, too. With 83 dams in SCE’s hydroelectric system stretching from Catalina Island to […]
