Terra Drone has developed ‘Terra UTM,’ an advanced UTM system capable of accurately determining the location of drones under its supervision. Given the growing prevalence of drones in daily operation, enhancing the value of these systems is paramount. Also, Terra Drone has been making significant strides in its pioneering UTM business through strategic investments in two key players: Unifly NV, a leading UTM technology provider based in Belgium, and Aloft Technologies Inc., which holds the top UTM market share in the U.S.In pursuit of enhancing product value for both companies,
Meanwhile, Toshiba specializes in providing C-UAS solutions that integrate various sensors and response measures to detect and respond to suspicious drone activities.
Terra Drone will foster technical collaboration between its Terra UTM and Toshiba’s C-UAS solutions . As the social integration of drones, for example in urban logistics, continues to accelerate, the development of sophisticated systems to prevent incidents and accidents arising from collision risks and unauthorized drone incursions becomes crucial. Both companies are committed to contributing to the establishment of a society where drones can be operated safely and securely.
