Problem
Operators of drone fleets often struggle with intermittent connectivity, high latency video streams, and limited on‑board AI capabilities, which hinder real‑time decision making and compliance with flight regulations.
Solution
AeroStream by Blip Industries delivers a unified command‑and‑control platform that combines low‑latency video streaming with edge AI processing on NVIDIA® hardware. The system automatically switches between 4G, 5G, Starlink, and Wi‑Fi networks to maintain continuous streams even in congested environments. Integrated pre‑flight checklists, geofencing, swarm coordination, and emergency return‑to‑launch (RTL) features ensure operational safety and regulatory compliance. AI models run directly on the drone or EdgeNano device, generating live detections that trigger alerts to radios, dashboards, or video‑management systems. Open APIs, KML route import, and ready‑made connectors allow seamless integration with existing enterprise tools.
Target Audience
Primary customers are enterprise drone operators, public safety agencies, and infrastructure inspection firms that require reliable live video, edge AI analytics, and centralized flight management.
