Skydio

While the company pulled out last minute from the CES show, Skydio still announced its refresh to its flagship drone, named the Skydio 2+. It’s not a full successor, but it improves the drone’s range and battery life.

In launching the new Skydio 2+, Redwood City-based Skydio is not limiting itself to rolling out a cool autonomous drone with groundbreaking KeyFrame filming technology, but also introducing the Skydio Care protection option to cover mishaps that eventually befall those new craft.

CES 2022 is back in person this year (at least for now), and we hope to see some great new gadgets on display and share them with you. Yifei and Seth discussed what they were looking forward to in the latest DroneDJ video on our YouTube channel.

Yifei and Seth discussed the top stories from the last week over on DroneDJ’s YouTube Channel this week. Check out the video below.

This week on DroneDJ‘s weekly live show Yifei and Seth will discuss some of the top stories from the past week and some continued holiday savings on drones. Check out the top stories this week and see how to watch the live show Wednesday morning below.

Continuing its push to become a global force, US drone maker Skydio has partnered with Australia’s Sphere Drones to accelerate the sales and distribution of its products “Down Under.”

Public safety agencies flying Skydio drones and using Axon’s digital evidence management platform will now be able to automatically upload photos and video captured on their aircraft to Axon Evidence. This capability is being made available to select agencies via an early access program.

Skydio 2 pilots have a feature-packed software release awaiting their drones today. Version 15.10 introduces new flight safety features and usability improvements that will enhance the ownership experience.

Skydio, the largest US manufacturer of AI-equipped consumer and enterprise drones, is continuing its push for global expansion by ramping up its international team. And this time, the focus is on Europe.

If you’re running a large warehouse, there’s a lot more to it than moving stock in and out. You have to track that stock as efficiently and accurately as possible. Now, we’re increasingly seeing the potential here for drones to play a role, saving employees from tedious (and even dangerous) work.

Skydio, the largest US consumer/enterprise drone manufacturer – and the leader of the pack with autonomous skills – is continuing its push to become a global force. Now, enterprise and public sector customers in Australia and New Zealand can start buying – and flying – Skydio products.

Skydio – the US manufacturer best-known for its AI-equipped drones that can take on tasks some other drones simply can’t – held a webinar today to discuss the capabilities of Skydio Cloud. First announced at AUVSI, the platform is designed to seamlessly integrate with the rest of the company’s platforms. Let’s see what it does.

The world of drones is changing – and fast. And these changes, specifically around autonomy and automation, will undoubtedly have implications for many of the commercial pilots around the world – particularly those who fly in the Enterprise space.

It was only a matter of time: The FAA has issued its approval for beyond visual line of sight flights using Skydio drones in conjunction with a Skydio dock. This is a major step on the road to completely autonomous remote drone operations – one that opens up a wide range of new use-case scenarios.

We’ve been watching, with great interest, the exploits of inventor Richard Browning and his company, Gravity Industries. You’ve probably seen him fly by now, looking more than a little bit like Iron Man as he zips around in his jetsuit. Now Skydio has entered the picture.

Time flies in the drone world. Just last week, Skydio launched its 3D Scan software with a major online event filmed at the US Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville, Alabama. Thousands attended that presentation, and a lot of people had questions. Today, Skydio put on a webinar to recap the software and answer some of those queries.

So Skydio pulled off the company’s largest event so far: A launch presentation that featured a demo of its powerful 3D Scan software, along with examples of how real-world clients have demonstrated its effectiveness in the field using a Beta version.

It’s a huge day for US drone manufacturer Skydio. The company is releasing the software it’s been teasing for weeks and has, obviously, been under development much longer: 3D Scan. It’s powerful. It’s pricey. And now… it’s available.

There’s been a lot of hype leading up to the launch of Skydio’s 3D scan. It’s the company’s own software for 3D scanning, and it officially launched today (June 2). We had access to the product in Beta and, well, it kinda blew our minds.

We’ve been getting a sense lately that there’s kind of a drum roll going on. And there is, as Skydio moves toward a major event on June 2.

Much debate – and excitement – has arisen from President Joe Biden’s proposed $2 billion project to repair the nation’s crumbling infrastructure. Yet almost nothing has been said about how drones may contribute to that revamp. Some observers believe their role could prove invaluable.
