Which is also a very good drone, but it takes a much higher level of training, and then it still doesn’t have the obstacle avoidance that the Skydio does. For a lot of routine inspection, the Skydio just make sense. Just because of that built in object avoidance, 3D scan, all the autonomy that it offers. It’s just a fantastic platform for this type of inspection.” - Joshua Sexton, Reality Capture Technology Manager- Stantec“At the Miami Beach Police Department, keeping the public safe is our number one priority.
