Drone Docking Stations | Drone Ports, Landing
Drone docking stations and drone ports allow UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) to take off and land, and also provide a
They are typically designed for battery-powered multirotor and eVTOL drones, as pure fixed-wing platforms require runway space to land. Some drone docking stations also provide an enclosure that stores the drone and protects it from rain, theft and damage. These enclosures may also be used to store packages for delivery drone services.
These enclosures may also be used to store packages for delivery drone services. Drone stations help mitigate the low flight endurance and long recharge times of battery-powered UAVs by automating the recharge process, which means that a human pilot is not required.
Stations that have to contend with a constantly moving platform may include a self-leveling landing pad that ensures that the drone will always land on a stable surface. Drone landing pads may utilize a variety of technologies to ensure that drones land precisely and safely. These include computer vision, RFID tags, ultrasound, and infrared LEDs.
