DESIGN AND PROTOTYPING OF A SHELTER AND CHARGING DRONE NIDO® STATION

WHERE DID WE START FROM?

Poweren® was tasked with a commissioned research project aimed at studying, designing, and prototyping a shelter system for remotely piloted drones used in engineering, renewable energy, surveillance, and defense. The design involved two motorized geodesic domes with a diameter of 220 cm, intended to house and recharge drones with a flight autonomy of 210 minutes and an operational range of 30 km.

WHAT HAS BEEN THE SOLUTION?

The system needed to be designed and constructed for outdoor installation, resistant to weather conditions like snow, wind and rain. It also needed to be insulated with insulating panels and motorized to allow remote control for dome opening and drone reception. As it was a prototype, costly mold and equipment manufacturing technologies were excluded.

WHAT HAS BEEN THE OUTCOME?

Our team found innovative technical solutions for constructing the domes without the use of expensive molds and within a short timeframe. Compact solutions were developed for dome movement and motorization, aligning with the client’s desired design. We successfully created a functional prototype in three months, suiting to the client’s design parameters and ensuring an aesthetic result that satisfied the project designers.
