Skydio Dock Meets Remote Ops

Skydio, distinguished as the sole drone constructed with a forward-thinking autonomy architecture, navigates its surroundings with unwavering confidence. Leveraging the innovative Skydio Visual Positioning System (VPS), it actively maps its environment in real-time, memorizing it for future missions. The Dock’s hardware meshes flawlessly with Skydio drones, establishing an effortless connection to the Skydio Cloud.

This unprecedented synergy empowers a multitude of operations, encompassing everything from mission scheduling and live-streaming to media storage, all consolidated within a single, dependable platform. Moreover, the Autonomous Missions feature ensures docked drones can undertake standardized inspections and complex operations without a pilot, promising consistent high-quality data capture.

With the integration of Skydio Dock and Remote Ops, progress tracking and real-time anomaly detection are no longer confined to physical proximity. These game-changing solutions propel operations into the future, reinforcing both operational excellence and safety.

Effortless Mission Planning Paired with On-Demand or Autonomous Launch

With an intuitive interface designed for ease, the Mission Planner tool simplifies the creation, editing, scheduling, and execution of even the most intricate operations directly from your browser. Whether planning Autonomous Missions from an overhead view or via manual flight controls, tackling complex tasks becomes straightforward.

Teleop adds another layer of control, allowing you to manually command the drone for on-demand visibility, be it initiating a launch from the Dock or commandeering an active Autonomous Mission. This level of control doesn’t compromise safety or autonomy – when your exploration is done, your drone autonomously navigates back to the Dock with just a click. And with Mission Alerts, you and your team stay informed every step of the way.
