Innovation was the theme of the FAI International Drones Conference on Saturday afternoon – and there was no shortage of it on display.
From drone wind-turbines that promise a never-ending supply of clean energy, to drone ‘guard dogs’ patrolling the perimeter of mansions in Beverly Hills, conference speakers showed there is no limit to how drones are set to affect our lives.
Safety was on the agenda at the FAI International Drones Conference and Expo in Lausanne today. Conference heard from eight speakers in a busy morning session which focused on the issues around organising airspace to ensure safe operation of drones wherever they fly.
Well done to the South Korean women’s team and the Japanese men’s team, who claimed the first Cross Country Paragliding gold medals ever given out at the Asian Games last week.
They were joined on the podium by, in the men’s event, the Nepalese and Indonesian teams, and, in the women’s competition, by the teams from Japan and Indonesia.
