Drones at Work

Another interest of mine that started in about 2012 was drone technology, as I had an opportunity to work with a startup that had developed some amazing, patented technology for consumers to better control drones as they flew them. Later, in 2015, a colleague brought me in to help another, more established company that was focused in the commercial drone technology market (hardware, software, and data management). I was then following so many sources of content in the drone industry that I naturally launched yet another Flipboard magazine, which I called Drones at Work – “How Unmanned Aerial Systems Are Improving Our World.” It was one of the first such magazines to focus on commercial applications, when several others were focused on consumer drones. That had become a hot market, though it has since slowed down considerably, and even contracted (at least in the U.S.). The commercial drone market, on the other hand, is where big growth is happening. Subscribe to “Drones at Work” here.
