Building Aerial Robotics Expertise in Nepal
May 17th, 2017

Earlier this year, WeRobotics and Nepal Flying Labs teamed up with the Swiss-based NGO Medair to map one of the largest landslides in Nepal. We recently created a short video showcasing that experience, which highlights the project from the team’s point of view, and attempts to show the true magnitude of the landslide. The video also addresses one of the core reasons for the establishment of our Flying Labs, the creation of local capacity in robotics technologies for faster disaster response, and other social good use cases.
If you enjoyed this video, be sure to also watch how we’re incubating robotics businesses in Nepal and how we’re testing cargo drones for the delivery of health supplies in the Amazon rainforest.
