Support for the Social Implementation of Drones as Part of the “Industrial Revolution of the Sky”

Drone Utilization

Trigger

The expansion of use of drones in a broad range of industrial sectors is being called the "industrial revolution of the sky." In particular, sights are set on Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS)* operation of drones in depopulated and populated areas, and members of industry, academia, and government are considering legal and regulatory systems, developing new technologies, and promoting business to rapidly prepare the infrastructure required for BVLOS operation.

*Beyond Visual Line of Sight: The operation of drones outside of the direct line of sight of their operators.
