ATV partners with UrbanMatrix to Revolutionize Agriculture in France with Advanced Drone Technology

France has long grappled with the crippling issue of agricultural field frosting, resulting in an annual loss of €2 billion for the agricultural sector. In a groundbreaking collaboration, ATV, a leading France-based manufacturer of anti-freeze tower blades and composite industrial parts, has partnered with UrbanMatrix Technologies, a Bangalore-based pioneer in drone technology. This alliance aims to address the frost problem by harnessing cutting-edge UAV solutions, marking a significant step towards smart farming.

 Traditional methods employed by French farmers, such as air blow towers, candles, heaters, and water sprayers, have proven noisy, polluting, and inefficient. They fall short in coverage, labor-intensive, and environmentally unsustainable. ATV recognized the urgent need for a sustainable solution to mitigate frost-related losses in the agricultural sector.

 UrbanMatrix Technologies, with over seven years of experience in drone development and a track record of collaborations with industry giants such as ISRO, TATA, Mahindra, etc. was selected by ATV for their technical prowess and innovative approach. They will manufacture custom drones tailored to ATV’s needs. These drones, equipped with state-of-the-art technology, will provide a multi-faceted solution.

The drone-based system is not just a replacement for outdated methods; it represents a quantum leap in agricultural technology. With two drones equating to the effectiveness of one air blow tower, these aerial marvels will not only protect crops from frost but also offer multifunctional capabilities, including plant drying and precise spraying using cutting-edge mapping technology.

 UrbanMatrix drones feature patent-pending Lithium-Ion battery packs, proprietary NextOS, 4G technology, tamper proofing module, and AI-powered data processing. This innovative technology ensures unparalleled flight time, reliability, and real-time monitoring, setting them apart from other drone solution providers.

Mr. Rishabh Verma, CEO and Co-Founder of UrbanMatrix Technologies, states, “Our mission is to bring cutting-edge drone technology to industries worldwide, and our partnership with ATV exemplifies this commitment. Together, we will revolutionize agriculture, making it smarter, greener, and more efficient.”

The collaboration between ATV and UrbanMatrix Technologies is set to redefine agriculture, offering a sustainable, eco-friendly solution to the frost problem that has plagued French farms for years. With their combined expertise and cutting-edge technology, this partnership heralds a new era of smart farming.
