In Ukraine, domestic development is being implemented in the field of MIND detection and destruction-an autonomous Dron variable ST1. This unmanned device is designated for faster and safe mines in the country.
Minister of Digital Transformation of Ukraine, Mikhail Fedorov, announced this innovative development in his Telegram channel. The ST1 is equipped with modern technology, including an inductive coil and sensors, which enables it to fly at low altitude and obstruct. On board the drone is also a powerful microcomputer capable of processing data and transmitting them to the sappers in real time. An important advantage ST1 is its speed, which is 4 times higher than the speed of a person. This will significantly accelerate and simplify the process of demining in the Ukrainian territories.
The experimental sample of the drone-lamp is ready, and the developers are actively testing it in the field. It is expected that the introduction of this innovation will enable the State Emergency Service, the Armed Forces of Ukraine and the National Police to safely manage the drone, minimizing risks. The process of searching and disposal of mines will be more effective, which helps to increase safety in the Ukrainian territory.
Minister Fedorov stressed that the developer team is gathering feedback and working on further improvement of this innovative technology. St1 production is planned, which will provide Ukrainian sappers with more efficient tools to fulfill their important mission in demining.
