About Autel Robotics
Autel Robotics develops portable multirotors and tilt-rotor aircraft for inspection, public safety, surveying and long-range operations. The EVO Max family combines visible, thermal and laser-ranging payloads with three-dimensional reconstruction, global route planning, obstacle avoidance and visual navigation when GNSS is weak or unavailable. A-Mesh networking lets aircraft and ground terminals relay data through one another during coordinated missions.
The larger Dragonfish series uses a vertical-takeoff fixed-wing layout for wider-area work. Models range from the Dragonfish Standard, with up to 100 minutes of flight, to Dragonfish-25, specified for 210 minutes, 220 kilometres and a ten-kilogram payload. Autel also supplies RTK mapping aircraft, enterprise cameras, controllers and fleet software. Mobile and payload software-development kits expose autonomous flight, gimbal control, live media and sensor data, allowing integrators to build specialised applications around the production aircraft.
