Revolutionizing UAV Operations
Introducing Our Hydrogen-Powered Hexacopter Drone
Innovation: Currently in the feasibility study phase, this drone concept aims to push the boundaries of UAV technology by integrating advanced hydrogen fuel cell propulsion, ultra-lightweight design, and AI-enabled surveillance capabilities.
Solution: This combination addresses the challenges of operating in rural, remote, and border areas across Canada.
Key Features
Ultra-Lightweight Design
Weighing just under 50 kg, our drone is lighter than any other UAV with comparable capabilities, enhancing maneuverability and ease of deployment.
Long-Lasting Performance
Achieves a flight duration exceeding 6-8 hours, significantly surpassing the industry standard of 55 minutes.
AI-Enabled Capabilities
Equipped with AI-powered sensors and cameras for superior data acquisition and processing.
Connected with Starlink
Global Coverage
Starlink provides connectivity across Canada, including remote and rural areas where traditional communication networks are unavailable.
High Bandwidth
Supports streaming of high-resolution video feeds and sensor data, ensuring detailed real-time information.
Low Latency
Facilitates real-time control and responsiveness, critical for mission success.
Remote Operation Capability
Allows pilots to control the drone from any location, enhancing operational flexibility and resource allocation.
Powered by Hydrogen
Extended Range
Hydrogen fuel cells provide significantly longer flight times and distances compared to lithium-ion batteries, allowing up to 1,000 km of coverage.
Quiet Operation
Hydrogen fuel cells enable near-silent operation, making them ideal for covert surveillance, reconnaissance, and minimizing disturbance to wildlife.
Rapid Refueling
Refueling takes just minutes, drastically reducing downtime between missions, unlike lithium-ion batteries that require hours to recharge.
Eco-Friendly
Produces zero harmful emissions, with water vapor as the only byproduct, ensuring compliance with sustainability goals and minimizing environmental impact.
Reliable in Extreme Conditions
Hydrogen fuel cells maintain performance in extreme temperatures, ensuring consistent drone operation across diverse climates.
