FlightOps, a drone operating system supplier, has signed a deal with DroneUp.
DroneUp, a prominent drone flying services provider, and FlightOps Ltd., a leading multi-drone operating system (OS) supplier, announced today a substantial commercial deal.
“Our customers can fly more missions over longer distances with better safety and lower costs with the FlightOps OS,” stated FlightOps CEO Shay Levy.
“With our technology, we will be able to realise the concept of drone delivery as a last-mile option with large scale and low operating costs.” We expect our delivery segment’s software licence costs to hit $2 million in 2022 and $10 million in 2023.”
DroneUp is a global pioneer in drone flying services, modernising businesses with drone technology solutions that include everything from deliveries and inspections to safety and security. Walmart invested in DroneUp to continue scaling its last-mile delivery technology after successful home delivery trials. Walmart has announced intentions to extend its DroneUp delivery network to 34 locations by the end of the year, potentially reaching four million Americans in six states.
The FlightOps technology works by placing robotic software on any type of drone, transforming it into an autonomous “robot-pilot” that connects with a cloud-based operation centre through 5G networks, enabling for automated fleet operation in shared airspace.
By combining high degrees of autonomy with the power of cloud connectivity, FlightOps enables huge scalability for any drone operation. Without the need for manual planning, the software combines powerful and automated mission planning to construct dynamic flight paths for delivery to corporate or residential addresses.
