Drones SIT
We are developing the aerospace industry
We put a lot of energy, passion and time into developing and sharing our expertise in unmanned aviation. We create our own applications and hardware solutions, allowing us to deliver products tailored to our customers’ needs and requirements. We were the first to use drones to inspect bridge structures and developed the Inspector app to do so. In addition, we also use the drones to inspect technical infrastructure, internal inspections of tanks and process units.
Drones have also brought new opportunities in the field of urban forestry – an app that can detect bark beetles before their first swarm is a result of a two-year project.
We are an official part of the IRS
Thanks to a long history of successful cooperation with firefighters and police officers, in 2019, Drones SIT as the first in the Czech Republic became an official part of the Integrated Rescue System (IRS). For example, we provide assistance at major fires, mass casualty incidents, searches for missing persons, building collapses or events that pose a security risk.
We have provided the intervention commander with streaming video from both drone and ground cameras. We have developed special docking stations for recording cameras or drone dropping sensors to detect hazardous substances. We are working intensively on a so-called extinguishing drone that can put small fires out in enclosed spaces. For the traffic police, we have developed an app for investigating serious traffic accidents, and for firefighters, we use 3D printing to produce unique parts for their equipment.
Making drones more popular
In 2016, the Dronfest festival was born in our country to popularise unmanned aviation. The largest drone festival attracts several thousand visitors from home and abroad every year, offering them a drone fair, a flying demonstration, commented demonstrations and interesting lectures. Experts, competitive enthusiasts, families with children and the general public – all enjoy the event.
Dronfest is ranked among the world’s top events in drone flying and since 2022, it’s been a part of the unique festival for innovators Innovate Pilsen.
