Drones for exploring caves developed

Engineers from Australian startup Emesant introduced a new tracking system and mapping in real time using drones. Now drones can fly in caves, reports Faina Idea.

The development was equipped with GPS navigation and a system of anti-collision sensors that will help drones fly around obstacles and navigate well in confined spaces.

Startup experts also developed Hovermap technology, which allows you to quickly and accurately draw full-fledged 3D maps of underground landscapes based on drone data.

According to  belta.by, the development will help rescuers find people lost in caves.

The initial cost of the startup is $ 2.5 million.
