Prinew (CEO Jong-kyung Lee) participated in the ‘Drone Show Korea 2’ held at BEXCO, Busan from February 23rd (Thursday) to 25th (Sat) and led K-drones by introducing various products and technologies. They announced that they have solidified their position as a company.
Prinew, a company specializing in the manufacture and development of unmanned aerial vehicles, has been participating in the Drone Show Korea every year since its founding in 2017, and this year it will also have the largest booth to display drones it is designing and manufacturing in-house, including fixed-wing type, multicopter type, helicopter type, and small size. All products including various parts required for drones, a service platform for drone operation, an integrated control vehicle equipped with all of Prinew’s S/W functions, and anti-drones were introduced.
First, Prinew introduced ‘D-DMB (DRONEIT-DRONE MAIN BOARD)’, an integrated main board device developed for the first time by integrating various avionics devices required for drones, communication and encryption devices, which are core modules of drones, and essential mission devices.
In addition, the exhibition corner where the multi-purpose small multicopter ‘Pandion S’ takes real-time photos of a model (diorama) of the urban area, and the data can be checked on site through an integrated control vehicle, also attracted attention. Video data captured by Pandion S is analyzed using artificial intelligence (AI) technology applied to drones and displayed through D-GCS developed by Prinew, and the collected data is linked to Prinew service platform ‘D-HUB’. Real-time control is possible.
In particular, anti-drones, which can identify and detect enemy drones, have also received a lot of attention due to the recent drone threat issue from North Korea. Prinew’s anti-drone solution has signed an MOU with NovoQuad of the United States, and plans to build a systematic anti-drone system by securing its own technology in stages.
Ga Choong-hee, head of Prinew Research Institute, said, “Drones are no longer simply aviation-related products but a new industrial field integrated with IT technology, and the success of drone operations in the future depends on AI.” He added, “We will focus more on developing technology that incorporates AI technology.” “At the same time, we will focus our core research and development capabilities so that we can lead the domestic drone market with our own technology,” he said.
Prinew is a leading drone company that provides groundbreaking drone systems and services through the convergence of unmanned aerial vehicle (drone) H/W manufacturing technology, S/W development technology, and core IT technology. We provide platform-based services that can maximize the usability of drones through IT technology and convergence.
