Study: Half of Drone Flights To Be Autonomous by 2022
|
More than half of global commercial UAS flights will be
conducted autonomously by 2022, according to a new study released today by
consulting firm Frost & Sullivan. These autonomous flights will function
“much like warehouse robots operate today,” the study notes. “This innovation
will create new industry opportunities as drones will be used as a tool to
make operations more efficient while drone maintenance and security will
become prominent areas for revenue stream development.”
Frost & Sullivan sees North
America as the leading market, followed closely by the Asia-Pacific region.
“The UAS market is becoming an ecosystem focused on information and
value-added services, where the drone is a tool acting as a cog in the big
data machine,” said Frost & Sullivan aerospace, defense, and security
research director Michael Blades. “Success in this ecosystem will be achieved
by companies that can safely, quickly, and inexpensively provide high-grade
data/information for real-time decision making.”
The study says fundamental
transformations that will disrupt the status quo and create new opportunities
for industry growth include a drop in demand for remote pilots to operate
drones on site; new regulations, infrastructure, and public perception with
regard to drone delivery; and the likelihood that, by 2022, the UAS will
mimic the cellphone industry with few hardware providers and myriad
open-source software and sensor providers that cater to specific
applications.
