“…RoBird®s impacts have been profound…AERIUM’s partner airports have reported up to an 80% reduction in bird strikes year over year. It’s mining clients have seen a 75% reduction in bird mortalities in the same time span…”

The positive impacts of RoBird® are soaring. From flying in high visibility airports in North America to blueberry farms in the Netherlands to dredging operations in Kazakhstan, RoBird® is a perfect model for the evolution of drone technology by looking at what nature does really and replicating it.
