Problem
Current autonomous drones have severe limitations in many industrial use cases, be it confined spaces, remote areas, or in harsh and unstable outdoor climate.
SOLUTION
FIXAR commercial drones combine the best characteristics of heavy-duty quadcopters and fixed-wing UAVs. FIXAR VTOL drones are capable of cruise speeds of up to 65-72 km/h and have a maximum flight speed of 120 km/h.
Task-based payload modules may include high-resolution photo and video cameras, thermal or infrared cameras, laser scanners, precision navigation modules, and many other payload attachments. FIXAR experts can help you determine the configuration you need to complete your job and achieve organizational outcomes.
FIXAR's main assets are scalable proprietary technologies: software (the Autopilot and xGroundControl software) and the patented aerodynamic design (ISR received).
