🎓 Last week, Martijn van Hoorn returned to his roots at TU Delft to share what it’s like to build aircraft at Avy, together with Jonas Holtstiege. At Avy, we do things differently. Instead of focusing on in just one component, our mechanical engineers design, prototype, test and build the whole system. From wing structure to payload bay, from concept to airborne. Because when you build everything in-house, you learn... everything. We regularly offer internship opportunities for students who want to make real impact. Keep an eye on www.avy.eu to stay updated.

Flying Drones Without Remote Control 🙌 One of the biggest misconceptions about drones? That they need someone on the ground, remote control in hand. At Avy, we’re proving that drones can do so much more - autonomously and efficiently. The Avy Aera isn’t flown by a remote control, it’s guided by a mission plan created by a flight operator. Once launched, the Aera completes its mission autonomously, with minimal input needed from the operator. This approach allows for precision, efficiency and scalability, even in the most complex environments. 💻 Our operators, like Sabrina Kerber at Avy, manage missions from a computer, ensuring the Aera can safely and effectively execute its tasks. Whether it’s emergency response or critical infrastructure monitoring, the focus isn’t on "flying" the drone: it’s on mission planning and execution. One operator can even fly multiple drones, which makes it very cost-effective. Drones are more than technology, they’re autonomous partners in reshaping industries. #InnovationInAction #BVLOS

🌍 Protecting Our Forests with Innovation On International Day of Forests, we recognize the vital role forests play, not only as natural resources but as essential ecosystems that need protection. During Leerarena 13 in Drenthe, we demonstrated how collaboration and technology can support nature conservation and crisis response. Our Avy Aera drone played a key role in a realistic wildfire scenario, alongside simulations by uCrowds and visual data analysis from Kavel 10 Thanks to this innovative approach, emergency responders gained real-time, accurate insights - crucial for swift and effective action. 🚀 By working together, we can strengthen our ability to protect forests and respond to natural threats. How do you see technology shaping the future of forest conservation? Let us know in the comments!
