Company Summary

Voltela provides connectivity assurance for commercial drones.

Operators of autonomous drones must guarantee safety and maintain control throughout the flight. The mobile network was not built for connectivity in airspace and connection failures are a fundamental safety problem and hinder regulatory approval.

Our patented solution uses off-the-shelf communication hardware and any network infrastructure to deliver aviation-grade performance.
