ANRA to provide UTM services to Matternet and support scaling of drone delivery services

Matternet and ANRA Technologies have announced a new partnership “which aims to support the safe and efficient scaling of Matternet’s drone networks as the company accelerates its innovative home delivery services,” said an ANRA press release.

Following Matternet’s recent launch of its drone delivery operation in Silicon Valley, this partnership will integrate ANRA’s UTM capabilities with Matternet’s Software Platform to ensure seamless airspace management of Matternet’s fleet to conduct home deliveries. The home delivery service, which has already been piloted in Mountain View and Sunnyvale, California, demonstrates Matternet’s focus on scaling drone delivery in urban and suburban areas across the U.S. and globally.

“With our home delivery service now live in Silicon Valley, our focus is on expanding our operations to serve more communities,” said Andreas Raptopoulos, Founder and CEO of Matternet. “Working with ANRA Technologies provides us with additional UTM capabilities that will help us scale our delivery networks while maintaining the highest safety standards for Beyond Visual Line of Sight operations in shared airspace. This supports our vision of deploying Matternet’s technology across every major urban and suburban area in the United States and Europe.”

Through their partnership, the parties will focus on integrating advanced UTM solutions that support the management of Matternet drones and their flight paths for strategic deconfliction with other drones, reducing the risk of collision. Additionally, they will work toward the seamless integration of Matternet drones within a comprehensive UTM system. This will enable Matternet to scale its operations safely and efficiently, ensuring reliable integration into urban airspace while meeting regulatory standards.

Amit Ganjoo, CEO of ANRA Technologies, said: “We are excited to partner with Matternet to advance urban drone delivery. By integrating our airspace management solutions, we aim to facilitate safe and efficient airspace operations, allowing Matternet to expand their services while enabling interoperability with other users such as public safety agencies who want to fly in the same airspace.”
