Military-grade smart drones to be deployed in
multiple countries for real-time surveillance and security
Iveda® (NASDAQ:IVDA), the global solution for cloud-based AI,
today announces the expansion of its partnership with Evergreen
Aviation Technologies Corp. (EGAT), a leading aircraft maintenance
solutions provider, following the success of the partnership over
the past year. Together Iveda and EGAT are continuing to expand
AI-powered smart drone applications around the globe in areas
including the Philippines, Mexico, the U.S., and the Middle East.
Growing their partnership, EGAT and Iveda will proceed with the
development of military-grade smart drones, equipped with Iveda’s
AI Video Analytics and sensor technologies, to assist with
confidential military deployments, flood and fire surveillance,
border and coastal patrol, livestock tracking, remote equipment
searches, infrastructure inspections, and basic aerial crowd
traffic control.
Having responded to multiple Requests for Proposals (RFPs) from
both private and government entities from the countries mentioned
above, the potential value of this partnership expansion exceeds
$2.5 million to date, with one significant RFP valued at $1.8
million. To date, the typical drone configurations requested have
ranged from $90,000 to $350,000 per unit. EGAT will continue to
provide Iveda with the assets, technical support, and training to
facilitate the promotion and sale of its drone products on a global
scale, which is especially important as Fortune Business Insights
predicts the commercial smart drone market to reach $54.81 billion
by 2030.
“Through this partnership, Iveda's state-of-the-art AI
technology combined with EGAT's aircraft-building expertise has
resulted in incredibly powerful and truly autonomous smart drones,”
said David Ly, Iveda CEO and founder. "As this partnership has
grown over time, it's been exhilarating to see the dots connecting
with Iveda and EGAT making efforts to provide our AI-powered smart
drone solutions for critical applications across the globe, helping
to protect what matters most to our customers."
Currently, one existing AI-powered drone is stationed near
Iveda’s headquarters in Mesa, Arizona, at Falcon Field Airport, and
is being used for customer demonstrations. This on-site exhibition
will allow potential clients from various industries to witness
first-hand the manually controlled and autonomous capabilities of
AI-powered smart drones.
“Iveda and EGAT’s smart drones are seamlessly executing missions
automatically, ensuring the safety of operations and enabling
continuous, around-the-clock monitoring for our customers
throughout the world,” said Richard Tsay, Iveda’s Director of
Product Development. “We are delighted to continue our partnership
with EGAT as we work to expand our global footprint for security
and surveillance for years to come.”
This news comes at a time of major global growth for Iveda,
having recently announced Australian-based Auzpack as a newly
signed reseller partner, multi-million dollar partnerships for
AI-powered security across Vietnam, a Latin American exclusive
partner which anticipates $5M for 2024, the opening of a new office
in Cairo, Egypt, and a $3.2M contract with the Taiwanese government
for AI video search and surveillance among other major
international expansions.
