- About
- Graz company developing automatic ultra-light parachute safety systems for commercial drones, with the stated mission of enabling drone operations by reducing the risk of severe accidents. Systems are built to protect people on the ground and equipment in the air, and to meet FAA and EASA requirements. Around 2 to 10 staff. SYSTEM CHARACTERISTICS. Autonomous deployment driven by onboard failure detection in smart electronics and software. Non-pyrotechnic, so the systems carry no dangerous-goods classification and are unrestricted for air travel and shipping. Total system weight of 290 to 650 g depending on take-off weight. Full canopy bloom within a few metres, enabling low-altitude deployment. Reusable within minutes by repacking or fitting a spare parachute, with installation designed around various standard interfaces. PRODUCT RANGE. Generic systems by weight class — DRS-5, DRS-10, DRS-15, DRS-25 and DRS-Heavy Lift — plus airframe-type variants for VTOL, fixed wing and rotor wing, and a DRS-FTS flight termination system. Platform-specific versions exist for Acecore (NOA, ZOE), Arcsky (X55), Aurelia Aerospace (X6, X8), DJI (M400, M300/M350, M30, M600), DeltaQuad (DQpro), Freefly Systems (AltaX), Velos Rotors (V3) and Watts Innovations (PRISM Lite, PRISM Sky). CREDENTIALS. Winner of the ESNC award among other tech and aviation business prizes, and incubated at ESA-BIC as first pick. It was the first company to pass ASTM F3322-18, the standard specification for small UAS parachutes, for a drone with a 16 kg maximum take-off weight (the DJI M600). Officially partnered with Auterion and supporting large-scale delivery projects.
- Relevancy
- Graz company making the parachutes that bring a failing drone down safely — lightweight, non-explosive, and the first in the world certified to the international standard for a 16 kg aircraft. Safety systems like this are what allow drones to be flown over people and beyond the operator's sight.
