Discover the added value of drone applications on the ground

Current legislation in Belgium often still poses many challenges for drone operators. Especially if you fly with heavier aircraft or in areas where airspace restrictions apply. That is why driving drones can in some cases be an interesting alternative to be able to automate certain applications.

Because ground drones have remained somewhat in the background during the hype of flying drones, this evening we will shed light on the different sectorsapplications and service models of these 'driving drones' on the basis of four testimonials.

It will be a fascinating evening with interesting keynotes and cases. For example, we discuss cases in agriculture and autonomous passenger transport, as well as the connectivity that plays an important role in this story. Interesting for anyone who is (potentially) interested in autonomous applications or wants to work with drones on the ground.
