Embry‑Riddle Student Research on Drone Swarm Mapping Selected to Compete at NASA Challenge
A team of Embry‑Riddle Aeronautical University students is conducting research using swarm microdrones that could change the way 3D mapping is done, especially in complex, hard-to-reach locations. Continue reading
Nexter and Naval Group Demonstrate Drone Swarm Technology with 100 Drones in French Army Demo
Nexter and Naval Group have demonstrated that drone swarms can have other applications than saturation attacks. This was done together with the Gironde company Icarus Swarms, which has developed software allowing the evolution of several mini-drones, generally supplied by the manufacturer Parrot, which also equips the French forces .

GAO Science & Tech Spotlight on Drone Swarm Technologies
This GAO Science & Tech Spotlight report explores drone swarm technologies, which use algorithms and local sensors to coordinate drones with minimal human intervention. Swarms could range from a few drones to possibly thousands. Advances in artificial intelligence and drone components have made swarms possible—even if they’re limited to simpler missions like aerial light shows for now. Continue reading
Drone Swarms for Farmers in Brazil
The EA-30X-Pro, presented in Brazil by the Chinese company Eavision, can be set up to function in a mini-swarm for crop-spraying. The model is capable of operating in a set of up to three devices with a single operator.
For those who follow this market, swarming drone operations was an announced trend, however, had not reached the market yet, at least in Brazil.
