Sony Corp. plans to offer commercial drone services targeting the construction, logistics and agriculture industries from the first half of next year.

The jointly owned company with robotics firm ZMP Inc. expects sales to total about 10 billion yen by 2020, said Kotaro Sabe, Aerosense chief technology officer.
