The development of the drone economy is closely related to the expansion of the possibilities of their use in industry. We will touch on the use of drones in the aviation industry, the defense industry, production, logistics, and camera surveillance.

Discussant:

RASTISLAV SOPKO, Association Mám Dron, will present the current state and development of unmanned technologies and their use in industry and services in Slovakia. The discussion will also include a demonstration of direct remote identification (tracking) of drones by UAVONIC, which can help authorized persons identify the drone and gain insight into its movement. For example, airports, police, soldiers, rescuers, mass event organizers, or national park workers can benefit from such information. All drones with a maximum take-off weight above 250g that will come to the EU market must be capable of direct remote identification, and older drones without a built-in identification function will have to be equipped with external modules.
