DroneTalks newsletter: New interviews with JARUS, KPN, TEOCO and Jedsy, events to watch out for and more!
Hello?drone enthusiasts!
We've had a busy past few weeks at DroneTalks, which means we have a ton of news for you, including three new interviews with JARUS, KPN, TEOCO and Jedsy, along with some events to watch out for!
See the full list below:
BVLOS drone operations in the Netherlands with KPN and TEOCO
Thomas Neubauer, the VP of Business Development and Innovations at TEOCO and co-founder of AirborneRF and Han de Glint from KPN, explain in our latest interview how challenging the implementation of any sophisticated BVLOS operations is when it comes to flight approval requests.
During the interview, they also cover:
How Switzerland enables innovation beyond traditional drone operations
“Switzerland is kind of the Silicon Valley of drones”, explained Herbert Weirather the CEO of the medical drone delivery start-up Jedsy in our recent interview.
He told us how the Swiss mentality and the infrastructure help empower his team to move beyond traditional drone operations like package drop-offs in wide-open, potentially muddy areas (or even when it’s dark outside).
Instead, he strives for higher-quality standards for medical deliveries, which is why Jedsy developed window and balcony landing pads with a specialised mailbox on top of the drone, allowing hospital staff to access lab deliveries without leaving their area, eliminating the need for long walks or advance notifications.
An overview of SORA 2.5 with Joerg Dittrich, Leader of the JARUS WG-SRM
The first edition of the SORA methodology works well in practice, which means the upcoming changes for SORA 2.5 incorporate a number of lessons learned from real-world implementations globally.
The first lesson that JARUS learned over the course of SORA 2.0 is that the next version of the methodology needs to increase usability.
Joerg Dittrich explained to us that JARUS members will begin by clarifying the wording to describe what’s expected of SORA stakeholders. They also plan to produce additional guidance material for several processes of the methodology that have proven difficult to some operators.
The expectations for SORA 2.5 are high and Joerg and the team are committed to do their absolute best to respond to each of the comments received and improve the document as far as possible.
