OVERVIEW
AeroVironment has been an industry leader driving innovation in the fields of automotive and aeronautical energy efficiency and unmanned aircraft systems for over 40 years. Recognized as being the largest supplier of small, unmanned aircraft systems to the Pentagon and to dozens of allied nations, AeroVironment is no stranger to life saving technology. Whereas their previous unmanned aircrafts were designed to save soldiers in the field, their newest innovation, Quantix™, coupled with their cloud-based analytics and reporting system, Decision Support System™ (DSS), is designed to save farmers’ crops. The drone uses five different lens lenses to asses plant health, photosynthetic activity, stage of growth, and plant anomalies so farmers can quickly and accurately monitor their crops health.
