Falcon Eye drones hit flight milestone

Commercial applications for drones in aerial services are wide and varied.

Falcon Eye, Dubai based drone operator, is celebrating 10,000 flights for projects across the Middle East and Africa, covering nearly 34,000 kilometers since 2014.
The company wants to double its operations in the next few years as the market continues to expand, with an estimated market value of $1.5bn by 2022 in the GCC according to latest reports.
“Drones are becoming an instrumental technology for many industries such as oil & gas, utilities, telecom, construction, transportation, city infrastructure developments, agriculture, archeology, safety & security as well as photography & videography. Drone technology is quickly growing beyond its original military applications and is making a very big impact on the commercial sector”, said Rabih Bou Rashid, managing director of Falcon Eye Drones.

As the Middle East rapidly grows and innovates, drones will play an instrumental role in the development of multipl..

Few Silicon Valley companies work with the Pentagon — meet one that’s helping the US build advanced military technology

Silicon Valley and the US military do not always see eye to eye — with the former trying to keep their products off the battlefield. There is still sizable group of companies that argue working with the government can help save lives.Hivemapper uses the military's own video footage to quickly generate detailed, three-dimensional maps and automatically detect changes the human eye cannot. Silicon Valley and the US military are not the chummiest of bedfellows. Companies such as Amazon and Google built their success on a culture of rapid innovation, while the Pentagon is clunky and risk-averse. And recently, a wave of anti-government sentiment has driven several prominent technology firms to cancel major Washington contracts.
But despite pressure from many in the tech world to keep their products off the battlefield, there is a less vocal but still sizable group of companies that argue that working with the government can help save lives, not take them. SparkCognition, for example,..

NMSU researcher uses multispectral camera during drone flight to detect plant stress

A bird’s eye view can sometimes give a better picture of a situation.
Integrated pest management researchers at New Mexico State University are adapting the concept by using specialized cameras on drones to locate plants suffering from stress.
“With the use of a multispectral camera, we are collecting red and near-infrared spectral bands,” said Ashley Bennett, urban IPM specialist with the College of Agricultural, Consumer and Environmental Sciences. “From these bands we can calculate a plant stress metric called normalized difference vegetation index.”

Ashley Bennett, New Mexico State University urban farm integrated pest management specialist, lands a drone during a multispectral photography study of plants to determine if the plants are under stress from insects, disease or drought.

NDVI ranges from negative one to one. The greener the plant is, the healthier it is and the closer the NDVI value is to one. The more a plant is stressed the closer the value is to negative one. Image..

Israel’s Airobotics opens U.S. HQ in Arizona as autonomous drone maker’s ambitions soar

As revolutions go, Ran Krauss wasn’t satisfied that drones were going far enough, fast enough. While the tiny flying machines offered potentially transformative services, Krauss figured drones would never reach their full potential as long as human operators were needed.

That philosophy led to the founding of Airobotics in 2014. The company has developed a pilotless drone that self-deploys, using robotics to handle chores like changing the battery and various components. No human intervention is needed.

The result is a robotic drone whose popularity is soaring so quickly that the company’s biggest challenge is making them fast enough to fulfill demand. As its next step toward expanding its research, development, and manufacturing, Airobotics announced today the opening of its U.S. headquarters in Scottsdale, Arizona.

“The idea for us when we started Airobotics was to pull the pilot out of the loop,” Krauss said. “It’s the most expensive part of the operations. That’s clear when you’..
