Usage
In our 150 m³ Drone Lab, we test potential applications for new types of drones with various modifications.
These include search missions or overcoming obstacles. In addition to the corresponding software installation, the lab also provides the appropriate hardware for drone use. We have already successfully supported several projects by regional companies and municipalities. Most recently, we supervised the state of Tyrol in setting up a drone competence center. We are currently working on the use of drones as a technical aid in mountain rescue and agriculture.
We are also happy to assist you with research and development projects.
