Join Brandon Torres Declet, CEO of Exyn Technologies, in this week's episode of Disruption Interruption to discuss the future of autonomous robotics. He shares insights on disruptive innovation, the evolution of drone technology, and how Exyn's groundbreaking solutions are revolutionizing industries like construction and mining, enhancing safety and efficiency in GPS-denied environments.

TAMPA BAY, Fla., Oct. 9, 2024 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- In the last few years, the number of drones has skyrocketed. According to the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), there are 396,746 commercial drones and around 387,746 for recreational purposes, and those figures only account for registered drones. (1) Karla Jo Helms (KJ), host of the Disruption Interruption podcast, is joined by Brandon Torres Declet, CEO and Board Director of Exyn Technologies—a pioneer in autonomous aerial robotic systems and an industry leader—to delve into the drone revolution. "The industry right now is focused on dirty, dull, and dangerous applications," Torres Declet highlights. "Drones are being used in mines to ensure safety, by insurance companies to inspect rooftops post-disaster, and to inspect wind turbines to ensure proper repairs," he adds.

Debunking the Myths: Spy Drones and Delivery Services
Torres addresses two common misconceptions about drones. First, drones aren't spying on you. Contrary to popular belief, the drones we typically see are used for industrial tasks like mapping and inspections, not surveillance.

Second, while drone delivery sounds promising, Torres Declet emphasizes that we're still far from achieving the cost efficiency of traditional last-mile delivery systems perfected by companies like FedEx, UPS, and the Postal Service. The current challenge lies in matching the low cost of conventional delivery services.
"In the next decade, we're going to see more drone deliveries as regulations loosen, technology improves, and unit economics for last-mile delivery get better," he says.

Revolutionizing Public Safety
Autonomous robots have the potential to transform public safety, especially in emergency response situations. Fire departments could deploy drones equipped with thermal cameras to locate trapped individuals or inspect affected areas after disasters, such as Hurricane Katrina, to find survivors. The ability to detect and respond quickly would significantly improve survival rates and reduce risks for rescue teams.

Another promising development is the concept of the "drone in a box." Stationed in remote or high-risk areas, such as California's fire-prone forests, these devices would have "the ability to potentially identify a fire before it turns into a raging inferno," says Torres Declet. These drones could then alert emergency services, allowing authorities to prevent the fire from spreading.

The Future of Autonomous Robotics
Exyn Technologies is currently developing two cutting-edge products aimed at revolutionizing how industries handle 3D mapping and inspections. In challenging environments like mines, where darkness and GPS limitations hinder traditional cameras, this technology provides precise 3D models with centimeter-level accuracy.
"That is the future. Autonomous robotics is where the industry is going," says Brandon Torres Declet, CEO of Exyn Technologies.
