Redefining Drone-in-a-Box technology

Our advanced technology ecosystem employs industrial-grade drones and docking stations, driven by AI-powered perception and cloud management software, enabling 24/7 coverage over vast areas. Drones can autonomously take off and land at any docking station within the network, with batteries and payloads automatically replaced in less than a minute. A single docking station can serve an area of ​​nearly 100 square kilometers, enabling unprecedented large-scale operations.

All drones are equipped with built-in AI computing chips, providing up to 100 TOPS of onboard processing power and advanced features such as visual perception and obstacle avoidance. A dual-link communication system utilizes 4G/5G cellular networks to cover urban areas and microwave links to cover areas with weaker signals, with a transmission distance of up to 8 kilometers and seamless switching between the two links.

Our advanced drone hardware is supported by the HOPE operating platform and ecosystem. HOPE is a powerful cloud-based software control platform that provides operators with everything they need, from mission planning and sensor data streaming to automated analysis and reporting. HOPE also features a 4D holographic interface and can be customized to meet specific industry needs.
