When you think military drones, the first things that come to mind are highly advanced and sophisticated killing machines that are designed to make it easier than ever for members of a particular army battalion to quickly and easily target enemies before taking them out in precise and surgical fashion.
However, the new Tether Eye is a military drone that places greater emphasis on surveillance and security. This is a drone, developed by AeroVironment, that is capable of being launched up into the air from fixed locations or even while on the move. The drone is intended to hover in the sky and capture 360-degree video that can then be streamed back to the base station to make it easier for troops to know their environment.
This military drone makes use of the latest aviation, robotic and photographic technology to give troops a tactical advantage.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Surveillance Drones
- Develop and market drones with advanced surveillance capabilities for effective intelligence gathering in military and other security-related operations.
- 360-degree Cameras
- Develop and market a variety of 360-degree camera/photographic technology that provides comprehensive visual coverage of the environment, particularly for military applications.
- Tethered Drones
- Develop and market drones that can be tethered to fixed locations or while on the move, for extended surveillance without the need for frequent battery swaps.
Sectors Adopting This
- Military Equipment Manufacturing
- Manufacture advanced military drones that provide comprehensive surveillance of the environment for various defense and security-related operations.
- Aviation Technology
- Innovate on existing aviation technology to develop more efficient and reliable drones for intelligence gathering and other military operations.
- Robotics Industry
- Develop advanced robotics technology that can be used in military drones to provide extended surveillance capabilities and other tactical advantages.
