Easy Aerial’s bright idea: keep the drone on a leash
Easy Aerial builds autonomous drones that can draw power through a tether, launch from a box, and watch over sites or moving vehicles. Its wager is that security teams often need a longer look more than a longer flight.
Dronehub Crashed the Demo. Then It Built the Part of Drone Autonomy Everyone Else Forgot
A failed flight nearly emptied the order book. The comeback was a sharper idea: stop selling every part of the drone dream and own the two-minute turnaround that makes autonomous inspection practical.
Sunflower Labs
Sunflower Labs builds the Beehive - a fully autonomous, AI-powered drone security system for large outdoor properties. Its 'Bee' drone lives inside a weatherproof 'Hive' base station, launches within seconds of a triggered sensor, patrols a property while avoiding obstacles in nearly any weather, streams HD and thermal video, then returns to recharge on its own. Founded in 2016 and based in Zurich and San Francisco, the company pitches drones as a lower-cost, faster-responding alternative to human security patrols for industrial sites, commercial campuses, and high-value residential properties.
