Fort Lauderdale, Florida, August 15, 2022 -- UAS Drone Corp. (OTCQB: USDR), a leader in robotics technology and drone solutions, today announced that its wholly owned subsidiary, Duke Airborne systems Ltd. (Duke Robotics), signed an agreement with the Israel Electric Corporation Ltd. (IEC), a public and 99% government-owned company that generates, transmits, and supplies electricity to all sectors of the State of Israel. Duke Robotics will introduce a first-of-its-kind robotic, drone-enabled system for cleaning electric utility insulators. This new system - the IC Drone - is under development and is based on the Duke Robotics ’s advanced intellectual property (IP) and know-how that integrates algorithms, autonomous systems, and robotic technologies used in mission-critical applications. The above marks Duke Robotics’ first collaboration for its civilian application.
Maintenance of high voltage electrical infrastructure requires routine cleaning of insulators in order to optimize system efficiency and prevent power outages. Currently, the global standard for routine cleaning of insulators involves the use of helicopter fleets and crane trucks.
IC Drone offers a revolutionary, cost-efficient, and safer method for this essential infrastructure service. UAS Drone expects its IC Drone system will be operationally launched in H2 2023, and revenues are expected to commence in H2 2023.
“We believe that our high-performance, mission-critical drone technology and know-how has untapped potential in the civilian market. IC Drone, for electrical infrastructure maintenance, is the first product will be releasing in the civilian market,” said Yossef Balucka CEO of UAS Drone Corp. “We are pleased to work with the Israeli National Electricity Company and believe this collaboration regarding IC Drone will benefit both parties.”
AboutUAS Drone
Duke Robotics, a wholly owned subsidiary of UAS Drone Corp. (OTCQB: USDR), is a forward-thinking company focused on bringing necessary unique stabilization and autonomous solutions for both military and civilian sectors.
Duke Robotics developed TIKAD, an advanced robotic system designed to serve the growing need for tech solutions in the combat field. The proprietary and confidential complex kinematic algorithms address the crucial need of modern warfare to bear arms remotely on hostile targets without risk to the military personnel. We believe that troops can use TIKAD to handle potentially dangerous situations quickly and efficiently from the air. This technology also allows troops to potentially disarm a situation remotely, without ever deploying a ground presence.
