RigiTech is helping the SAFIR-Ready project, which is part of the SESAR 3 Joint Undertaking, to develop improvements to the API of the company’s networked drone control software RigiCloud.
SAFIR-Ready aims to improve emergency medical and critical infrastructure responses through the utilisation of Advanced Aerial Mobility and U-Space technologies.
The new API allows third-party control systems to receive critical flight data and send commands to RigiTech’s Eiger delivery drone system while ensuring full certifications and security.
Working towards this new integration, Eiger drone operators will soon be able to conduct and oversee beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) operations directly from their software suite, including telemetry and flight path management.
In a post on LinkedIn, SAFIR-Ready said the initiative aims to offer advanced features in 2025, including camera feed integration, BVLOS manual control, and sophisticated DCP local messaging.
