Smart Poles – The Future of Autonomous Drone Operations
Ever wondered how a drone docking station could also be used to generate electricity, provide street lighting and internet connectivity?
This webinar we are excited to introduce Omniflow’s multi-application sustainable smart pole, that provides all of that and much more.
Context
To cater to the growing demand of autonomous drone operations and solving the pain point of short battery life of drones, docking stations are one of the most critical pieces. The ability of autonomous landing/takeoff, storage, recharging and/or battery swapping for the drone/drones is well known, but what if the same docking station can perform a bunch of other functions?
Powered by wind & solar, the Omniflow Smart Pole can transform a regular street light into a sustainable smart infrastructure capable of housing multiple added value services like 5G/LTE small cell, public wifi, security cameras, drone charging port, IoT sensors/gateways and even integrated audio for public communication. Through its integrated battery storage, the resilient solution can also provide lighting, surveillance during grid outages.
Equipped with FlytNow and our computer vision aided precision landing module, the drones docked on the Smart Pole can be autonomously operated over 4G/5G to precisely land, conduct missions, self-charge and prepare itself for the next operation!
