There is likely to a surge in the global drone industry in 2016, say experts.
This prediction comes ahead of the UK drone show that is to take place at the NEC in Birmingham and would be held for two days 5-6 of December, 2015.
Media companies for aerial photography and cinematography, mapping and surveys and in the agriculture industry are some of the areas of drone functioning and utility. There is an increasing trend of use of drones form the above mentioned purposes.
As more businesses recognize the benefits of UAV technology, more employment is created within the drone industry and companies are now looking to hire drone engineers and experts.
Oliver O’Brien, the show’s project manager, said: “Some industries started using drones a few years ago, but suddenly more and more businesses are realising the advantages and jumping on the bandwagon. We predict the use of commercial drone technology is going to continue to increase throughout 2016, especially with DJI, the world’s largest consumer drone manufacturer, reportedly being valued at $10 billion.”
Companies like Amazon, Shell and DHL are already utilising UAV technology. This technology is also used extensively for humanitarian project that include include catching poachers in Africa’s National Parks and helping out in disaster zones.
Business like Easyjet and Network Rail are also planning to commercially use the dorne for several purposes.
A flight simulator for drones would be exhibited at the exhibition. Various aspects of drone owning and operations like insurance and legislation would also be discussed on the sidelines of the exhibition.
Considered as the largest consumer drone event to ever take place in the UK, the UK Drone Show presents a great opportunity for great industry research and business to interact and seek out opportunities for business considering incorporating drone technology.
A few months ago, easyJet, the largest airline of the UK conducted tests for the commercial use of the flying machines. The use of drones by companies such as those in the airline industry is to increase the amount of money a plane can generate.
As a start easyJet plans to try out a new way of inspecting its jets - with an automated drone.
This is one of the out of the box uses of a drone in the commercial world.
The drone that was designed and developed by UK-based firms Blue Bear Systems Research and Createc, the Remote Intelligent Survey Equipment for Radiation, the drone was originally designed to measure radiation and map rooms in hazardous environments.
The drone in question is a two-foot wide quad-copter drone that uses the features of electro-optical, light detection and ranging sensors. The drone also has the ability to hover and maneuver in industrial buildings and autonomously avoiding obstacles.
easyJet plans to us ethe drone as it circles around the plane at a distance of 3 feet and uses lasers ot calculate the distance between itself and the plane. The aim is to see external cracks on the plane.
