#SKYDIO 2 DRONE FOR SALE PRO#
To compare all the above drones, the new Skydio 2 and the DJI Mavic Pro 2 and Mavic 2 Zoom have the best obstacle avoidance system. We will review this list in more detail further along this post.Īs you can see DJI who are the leading consumer and professional drone manufacturer with something like 70% of the market are also leading the way when it comes to obstacle avoidance drones. The below obstacle avoidance drones contain from 1 to 6 directions of obstacle avoidance technology. Manufacturers are fusing these various sensors together to create the obstacle detection and collision avoidance systems.

We are seeing Stereo Vision, Monocular Vision, Ultrasonic, Infrared, Time-of-Flight and Lidar sensors being used to detect and avoid obstacles. Surprisingly, there is not just one type of obstacle detection sensor being used by the drone manufacturers. There are also links and information if you would like to create your own DIY collision avoidance system. We also give you a brief overview of the type of obstacle detection sensors being used, including information on software algorithms and SLAM technology, which is used to interpret the images being scanned by the sensors. In this up to date article, we take a quick view at the top drones with obstacle detection and collision avoidance technology. Now the latest drones from DJI, Walkera, Yuneec and others have front, back, below and side obstacle avoidance sensors.Īt the time of writing there is only 2 drones, which has all 6 directions of obstacle detection. This obstacle detection and avoidance technology started with sensors detecting objects in front of the drone. This year, we have quite a few drones with collision avoidance technology. Drones with obstacle detection and collision avoidance sensors are becoming more prevalent in both the consumer and professional sectors.
