Cloud seeding smart drones
For efficient cloud seeding
The cloud seeding drones offered by Selerys through the LAICO Smart DRONE system represent a groundbreaking solution in aerial cloud seeding technology. This advanced drone-based cloud seeding system provides a safe, reactive, and remotely controlled method for efficient cloud seeding, whether for rain/snow enhancement, or fog dispersal.
Key features of LAICO DRONE
Autonomous and remotely controlled
The LAICO smart drone system allows for the autonomous operation of cloud seeding drones using a simple SMS or web command. This system ensures efficient and reactive cloud seeding with minimal human intervention. Operators can deploy multiple drones, each equipped with hygroscopic salt or AgI flares, to the ordered altitude or targeted meteorological conditions in a matter of minutes.
Advanced technology integration
The LAICOTM DRONE system is equipped with an embedded processing unit that:
Commands drone operations remotely through SMS/web commands.
Checks flares connected to each drone to ensure safe flights.
Transmits automatically & dynamically flight plans to the smart seeding drones.
Automates drone launches once preparation is complete.
Monitors instrumentation remotely, including flare and drone stocks, and performs security checks.
Collects and transmits live GPS position and real-time atmospheric data to the operator through the software interface.
Competitive and reactive cloud seeding
Continuous & multitarget Seeding Capability
The LAICOTM DRONE system offers a competitive edge in continuous & multitarget cloud seeding. The infrastructure is already installed on the target area, making it immediately available. This infrastructure operates 24/7, day and night, always ready. From the moment of decision, it takes only a few minutes to reach the target inside the cloud, and the drones can simultaneously address multiple targets in the area.
Safe and efficient
The LAICOTM DRONE system ensures the safest aerial cloud seeding method available with drone. Each standard drone can carry multiple flares with silver iodide or hygroscopic salts, dispersing the seeding agent inside the cloud safely and efficiently. The sensors and intelligence embedded in the drone lights the flare that spreads the seeding agent, reaching the target within minutes.
Ecological
The LAICOTM DRONE system ensures an ecological aerial cloud seeding method. Additionally, the same LAICO infrastructure can be used for any use case: from rain or snow enhancement, to fog dispersal.
