What Role Can Autonomous Drones Play in Major Cities?
Ran Krauss is CEO and Co-Founder of Airobotics, a global leader in fully automated industrial drones. The company has developed a pilotless drone solution, the first of its kind in the global market. Its industrial grade platform is available on-site and on-demand, enabling industrial facilities to access premium aerial data in a faster, safer, more efficient way. In May, the company received the world’s first approval to fly over a major metropolis. The Home Team Science and Technology Agency of Singapore will use Airobotic’s cutting edge drone technology to augment Singapore’s Police Force by providing real-time aerial data delivered by automated drone technology.
Ran is a leader and an influencer in the drone industry, working at the intersection of robotics, practical aviation and drone flight. He is the first licensed commercial UAV pilot in Israel, having assisted the Civil Aviation Authority in Israel to establish regulation for commercial UAV operation. Ran previously co-founded two successful drone companies: ParaZero, which builds ballistic parachutes for drones, and Bladeworx, the first company to receive a commercial UAS operator license from the Israeli Civil Aviation Authority. In this episode of the Drone Radio Show, Ran talks about Airobotics, the opportunity that autonomous drone solutions deliver and the challenges of providing such solutions in urban environments.
