Fly Autonomously
Fly Autonomously

Choose between manual and autonomous flight to match your project needs. Pilot the drone yourself when you need precise control over flight paths and coverage, or let compatible drones fly autonomously to map hazardous, elevated, and out-of-sight areas without putting personnel at risk. AI-powered autonomy enables intelligent navigation, obstacle avoidance, and guided exploration with minimal operator input—even in areas with little to no light.

* Autopilot compatibility: Artec Jet currently supports the DJI M300, DJI M350, and Freefly Astro Max for autonomous mapping. Works with more drone models for manual flight. Please contact us to learn more.

Other Deployment Methods
