Product

Marble Aerospace builds autonomous aerial surveillance drones for monitoring maritime territory for drug trafficking, poaching, and illegal immigration. The drone is 3D printed with high-resolution printer and powered with high capacity batteries. Traditionally the surveillance is performed through boats which are inefficient and slow to respond. Marble Aerospace’s drones are capable of travelling long distances reliably to provide surveillance data in real time. The company is also working on the intersection between drones and airlines for building personal aerial vehicles.
