Compact drone for indoor which carried in safe, shock-resistant and long-time flying in a pocket "Cleo drone"

The palm-sized drone developed by Cleo RoboticsCleo drone"Is a model with a design that houses a pair of rotors in a cylindrical body like a donut. This makes it easy to carry in a pocket and carry it safely, when it comes in contact with obstacles, it is hard to break the main body and it does not hurt people around us,Ducted fanThe design of the method creates efficient propulsive force and allows longer flight than conventional products. About detailed features of such Cleo drone, IEEE Spectrum, a technology news site, is communicating.

The following image is an image image of the body of palm-sized drone Cleo drone developed by Cleo Robotics.


The image with the real thing on the palm is like this. The size is 95 mm in diameter, 33 mm in thickness, weighing 90 g.


The following movie is a promotion movie by manufacturer Cleo Robotics.

From the left, smartphone and Cleo drone, coffee are arranged on the table. As Cleo drone is designed like a donut, breakfast seems to be lined up.


A man approaches and picks up a smartphone and a drone with his left and right hands ......


Put in each of the left and right pockets. Cleo drone is a design that the rotor is not exposed outside the body, so it is okay to put it in your pocket as it is.


The man takes out the drone from his pocket and presents it in the air. The man who appears in the movie is Mr. Omar Eleryan (CEO) of the manufacturer@ OEleryan)is.


Drone got away from the hand and started flying. Cleo drone has a ducted fan structure in which a rotor fits in a cylindrical body, and the thrust of the rotor can be used more efficiently than the conventional drones. Operation installed on smartphoneDedicated applicationI will do it.


The donut shaped body is designed to protect the rotor from obstacles and not to hurt people with the drones rotor. Due to its efficient design, the available flight time is 12 to 15 minutes longer than 5 to 10 minutes of the usual small drones flying time of 200 g or less. The figure flying is like a UFO.


The main body has built-in high-definition camera, you can panorama photography, bird's eye view shooting and self-shooting just by tapping the button on the special application.


Due to the design of the body considered to be safe for humans, unlike the drones where the rotor is exposed, it is possible to catch as it is in flight. Mr. Eleryan decided to create Cleo Robotics saying that experience was experienced by Eleryan and co-owner Simon. Drone who got the first time must fly while paying attention to the child outdoors, aiming to make a safe and practical drone from the experiences which had come to the tree in 10 minutes became.


Cleo drone won the Innovation Award (Innovation Award) at the consumer electronics fair "CES" in 2017. In the future, "Cleo drone"SLAMWhenneural networkWe wanted to implement the function to automatically carry indoor flight and obstacle avoidance with AI. Cleo Robotics will launch Cleo drone's "Monitoring Business in the Indoor Security Market" around 2019, and then by the latter half of 2019 "Products for Pricing that Can Contribute to Other Competitors for General Consumers" We are planning to make it appear.
