Today’s episode is about ballistic parachutes (parachute for drone) and how they just might make flying drone over people possible. We are joined by Alan Erickson from Indemnis.

The Nexus by Indemnis is a UAV recovery system that is designed to exceed future FAA safety standards. We learn about the origins of Indemnis. What prompted Alan and his co-founders to start Indemnis? What are the various issues that they ran into while designing Nexus? And how did they manage to tackle them? Is this ballistic parachute scalable to larger drones?

This risk mitigation product needs a 100% success rate so that safety of people on ground is not compromised. How is Indemnis ensuring that? Learn about the exhaustive testing and engineering standard that was developed in close collaboration with industry majors. Will this parachute drone make flying drone over people possible? Will you need any other accompanying accessories? We finally wrap up this very interesting episode by discussing pricing and a potential launch date. Tune in to this very special Drone U episode.
