Unveiling Cutting-Edge Unmanned Technology at XPONENTIAL 2025
Welcome to Houston, Texas, where the XPONENTIAL 2025 event showcases the most innovative solutions in unmanned systems. Don’t miss our exclusive interviews with leading companies as we highlight the transformative technologies that promise to redefine autonomy and efficiency in various sectors.
Exploring Game-Changing Innovations with Hextronics
Our journey begins with a conversation with Curtis Lary, the founder and CEO of Hextronics. Curtis introduces us to the Atlas, a revolutionary battery-swapping drone system. This technology doubles the mission capacity of drones by autonomously swapping batteries, thereby enhancing mission efficiency and duration. This pivotal advancement is particularly beneficial in large-scale inspections, such as railway or oil refinery assessments, and emergency response scenarios, where extended flight times are critical for success.
Autonomous Passenger Air Travel with Wisk
Next, we speak with Kyle Bokariza from Wisk, who presents a glimpse into the future of autonomous passenger transport with their fully autonomous eVTOL aircraft. Targeting a 2030 market entry, Wisk aims to make air travel as accessible as Uber rides, underlining the importance of scalability and safety through set flight routes. By leveraging existing autonomous flight technology, Wisk plans to deliver a cost-effective and efficient transportation solution, which not only conserves time—a crucial commodity—but also pioneers an entire industry enriched with job opportunities across maintenance and operational sectors.
Ground-Breaking Robotics Solutions from Ghost Robotics
Our exploration continues with Ghost Robotics, showcasing their quadruped robots designed for real-world operations. These versatile machines enhance situational awareness for first responders and military personnel by integrating advanced sensors to gather critical data. With an IP67 rating and over three hours of battery life under extreme conditions, these robots are taking significant strides in perimeter security and industrial inspection. Santiago also highlights innovations like a manipulator arm for grasping objects, contributing to an ever-evolving landscape of automation and versatility.
Enhancing Connectivity and Reliability with TEAL
The foundation of all these cutting-edge solutions lies in consistent, reliable connectivity. TEAL is here to keep your unmanned solutions connected and operational with seamless access to global networks across 196 countries. With the ability to dynamically switch between carriers over-the-air, TEAL ensures unparalleled flexibility and reliability.
