WiBotic EnergyPad has a powder coated aluminum physique and plastic lid for sturdiness and corrosion resistance. It can also be climate resistant, and totally weatherproof choices may be custom-manufactured for firms with that requirement. Custom-sized variations may also be designed based mostly on particular buyer wants.

“WiBotic works with drone operators and service providers in many industries, and almost all of them have experienced the time and financial burdens of manually recharging batteries,” stated Ben Waters, CEO of WiBotic. “WiBotic PowerPad is an easy solution for autonomous charging and enables them to quickly experience the maintenance reductions and cost benefits of wireless power.”

“WiBotic wireless charging technology is a key component in the AERO integrated aerial enterprise and the WiBotic PowerPad performs beyond our expectations,” stated Joel Ratner, director of the Innovation Lab at AERO Corporation. “And we couldn’t ask for a better development partner; the support our team has received from WiBotic is exceptional.”

You can study extra about WiBotic right here. WiBotic shall be displaying the brand new product in sales space #232 on the upcoming Commercial UAV Expo in Las Vegas, NV, October 24-25, 2017. People desirous about discussing WiBotic EnergyPad or implementations are invited to go to the sales space.
