Autonomous Drones and the Pressing Need to Revamp Drone Laws, Skydio Updates, Working Upcoming Drone Conference in Houston, DJI News

In this week's drone news show, we focus on autonomous drones, and the pressing need to introduce new drone laws that are in alignment with the rapid technological strides.

In our first story, we discuss the recommendations made by a UK-based research agency to monitor unmanned flights.

This research agency has recommended the use of electronic systems which enable the tracking of all unmanned flights over radar at ATC’s. How will such extensive monitoring impact the drone industry as a whole?

Next, you will learn about the upcoming drone conference, the Energy Drones and Robotics summit in Houston.

We also have some interesting updates on Skydio, the US-based manufacturer of autonomous drones.

With Skydio and other drone manufacturers focusing on developing drones that fly with higher autonomy, there is a pressing need for governments across the world to revamp their drone laws.

For all this and much, much more, tune in to our latest show now.
