INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Not far from Tel Aviv a drone flies low over a gritty landscape of warehouses and broken pavement
It slowly approaches its home & a refrigerator-sized box inside a mesh fence, and hovers, preparing to dock
It descends like some giant bug, whining all the way, and disappears into its base where it will be cleaned, recharged, and sent back out
This drone is doing the nearly impossible: it flying and landing autonomously and can fly again and again without human intervention and it
doing it all inside a self-contained unit that is one of the coolest things I&ve seen in a long time.The company that makes the drone,
Airobotics, invited us into their headquarters to see their products in action
In this video we talk with the company about how the drones work, how their clients use the drones for mapping and surveillance in
hard-to-reach parts of the world, and the future of drone autonomy
It a fascinating look into technology that will soon be appearing in jungles, deserts, and war zones near you.
