TORONTO, ON / ACCESSWIRE / November 5, 2024 / Volatus Aerospace Inc. (TSXV:FLT.V)(OTCQX:TAKOF)(Frankfurt:A3DP5Y/ABBA.F) ("Volatus" or the "Company"), a leader in advanced aerial solutions, and Kongsberg Geospatial ("Kongsberg"), a recognized innovator in geospatial software and situational awareness solutions, are pleased to announce a new collaboration to enhance Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) capabilities for Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems (RPAS) through the integration of Kongsberg's IRIS Terminal into Volatus' state-of-the-art Operations Control Center (OCC). Under this commercial agreement, Volatus will use its OCC to test, validate, and demonstrate Kongsberg's IRIS Terminal software, designed to provide operators with real-time airspace awareness, showcasing IRIS Terminal's functionality to potential clients, providing comprehensive demonstrations to display real-time situational awareness and control over BVLOS operations. Additionally, the companies will work closely to secure regulatory approvals across multiple jurisdictions, expanding both companies' reach and compliance capabilities in the BVLOS sector. "Our collaboration with Kongsberg Geospatial represents a strategic move to advance and commercialize BVLOS operations across diverse industries," said Glen Lynch, CEO of Volatus Aerospace. "Maintaining airspace awareness to avoid conflicts with other aircraft is essential for ensuring safe beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations. By integrating IRIS Terminal into our Operations Control Center, we are not only enhancing our BVLOS capabilities in terms of safety, reliability, and scalability but are also positioning ourselves to drive new revenue opportunities by offering robust solutions for clients ready to unlock the full potential of RPAS." This collaboration will allow potential end users to witness live demonstrations of Kongsberg's IRIS Terminal within the Volatus OCC. The IRIS Terminal integration will serve as third-party proof-of-concept, supporting both companies in securing long-term BVLOS contracts as industries increasingly recognize the value of autonomous RPAS operations across sectors like public safety, energy, and infrastructure. "Partnering with Volatus Aerospace enables us to validate our technology in real-world scenarios and connect with customers ready for advanced RPAS solutions," said Jordan Freed, CEO of Kongsberg Geospatial. "With Volatus' operational excellence, we can shape the future of BVLOS operations, addressing the growing demand for safe, efficient, and compliant RPAS solutions across industries." This partnership leverages Kongsberg's advanced airspace visualization technology alongside Volatus' BVLOS (Beyond Visual Line of Sight) operational expertise. As Kongsberg adds new features, introduces new software, and integrates new sensors, they will leverage the operations control center and its operators / pilots to provide regular real-world feedback to accelerate the development process. These solutions enable drones to operate over longer distances without the pilot's direct line of sight, opening new possibilities for industries such as public safety, energy utilities, and infrastructure management. This collaboration is expected to open significant revenue-generating opportunities as Volatus and Kongsberg work together to commercialize BVLOS solutions that meet stringent safety and regulatory requirements, positioning both companies at the forefront of a rapidly expanding market.
