AI Engineer World's Fair 2026 — unofficial import demo

Skydio is the leading U.S. drone manufacturer, deploying autonomous flying robots across critical infrastructure systems that keep nations running. Our products and technology are precipitating an evolution in how drones are operated: from direct, line-of-sight control via a handheld controller, to remote operation from anywhere in the world through a web browser where a single operator can orchestrate multiple drones simultaneously. Our customer fleet of flying robots represents one of the largest scale deployments of autonomous robots in the world today, a fusion of cutting edge robotics research with practical, data driven engineering across hardware and software, working together to save lives and increase efficiency for the critical industries we serve. In this talk, we will focus on the key components of the autonomy stack spanning the cloud and the edge that enable these operations, and how they give operators superpowers, allowing them to accomplish high-level objectives through a single command.
