MS Dhoni is the brand ambassador for one of the companies in India, Garuda Aerospace. He is not only the face of the company but also an investor in the company. The COVID-19 lockdown made him discover the utility of drones in agriculture and how they could benefit farmers, and he shared this discovery with the company.
The camera drone will be battery-powered. Its primary application involves surveillance, inspections, surveys, growing crops, and cleaning solar panels. Although Garuda Aerospace hasn't disclosed any more drone specifications, the company may unveil the feature before the product arrives in the market later this year. Customers can expect the drone to be available for purchase before the end of this year.
Droni was shown-off at a global drone expo in Chennai along with Garuda Aerospace's brand-new Kisan Drone, designed to spray pesticide over three acres in a single day. Agnishwar Jayaprakash, the President and CEO of Garuda Aerospace, said, "Our Drone is an indigenous drone that is flexible in the surveillance applications it can do. In addition to being incredibly efficient, it has cutting-edge construction techniques and was built to an exceptionally high quality."
President of the Indian Drone Association, Anand Kumar Das, said, "I am extremely delighted to serve on a platform where industry stakeholders connect to gain insights about the drone industry. I am also happy to organize the Global Drone Expo together with Garuda Aerospace." A report by Business Insider India mentioned that the company is involved in contracts and agreements worth close to $1.2 billion. In addition, the Telangana government will use the company's surveillance drones.
