Drones offer two main benefits to users, safety and efficiency. Drones are efficient in that they can do the same work as teams of people and take only a fraction of time.

Drones, when combined with data processing systems, provide highly refined information for users in an ever-changing world. As we integrate AI into our everyday lives, this will accelerate exponentially. Drones are safer than manned aircraft and can be used to make visual observations. Climbing a tower. Drones can provide imagery that is difficult or … READ MORE ...
