Jul 16, 2022

Tokyo (Japan), July 16 (ANI): In recent years, drone has been attracting attention not only for their use in logistics and disaster response, but also for their potential for monitoring remote areas. In Japan, a "Level 4" system will begin by the end of this year. This is a system that allows a drone to fly in area where the operator cannot see it. Therefore, telecommunication and system management companies have been entering into the drone industry. KDDI is a major Japanese telecommunication company. Its subsidiary, Smart Drone Corporation, applies the advantage of Telecommunication Company to develop system that can control drone in remote area. By establishing this system, it makes lower the time and cost of management and inspection. As remote operation of drone become more common, port for drone to take off and land will become necessary. Blue Innovation Inc. manages the drone port. The deregulation of drone and the development of the technology will encourage the entry of other fields in the future, not only in the fields of disaster management and logistics, but also in other fields, leading to raise up the bottom line of each industry.
