Aerosense combines its proprietary industrial drones with cloud services to provide drone solutions that are easy to use in a variety of industrial settings.
The fields of application include surveying, inspection, broadcast, security, agriculture, and many others. By enhancing the connectivity of the equipment and systems necessary for drone utilization, Aerosence makes it easy and smooth to perform a series of tasks such as drone flight, measurement, aerial photography, and data processing, even when using a drone for the first time.

Aerosense does not only develop and provides industrial drone aircraft, but also provides solutions to implement drones into society and implement them to practical use in various industrial work scenes.
In order to utilize drones to solve existing business issues, peripheral technologies that support practical use and data processing technologies that analyze measured and captured data into a form that is easy to utilize are indispensable. Aerosense has developed its own ground control point (Aerobo Marker) and cloud-based data analysis service. By enhancing the linkage between the aircraft, markers, and software, we have created an environment that enables smooth operations from measurement and photography to data transmission and data analysis.
In fact, the Aerosense drones are being used by many customers in the surveying and inspection fields of the construction, forestry, and manufacturing industries, contributing to on-site operational improvements and safety measures. In the future, we aim to further expand the range of drone applications while improving the performance of the aircraft and peripheral technologies.

Aerosense is a joint venture company established by Sony Mobile Communications Corporation (Currently Sony Group Inc.) and ZMP Corporation.
By having an in-house integrated development system from drone hardware to software, we are able to provide easy-to-use solutions in various industrial fields, from airframes to analysis software.
Our strength lies in our development system, which leverages the technical capabilities and quality of the Sony Group and the mobility of a venture company. We are able to quickly provide solutions that meet the needs of our customers by gathering information on issues close to the customers who actually use drones and having our own engineers work on the development.

Aerosense's services are not limited to selling drones.
We provide thorough introduction support and after-sales follow-up services, including the selection of the most appropriate aircraft for the application and usage conditions, guidance on related laws and regulations, advice on on-site operations, safety instructions, and periodic inspections of the aircraft. By accompanying customers until they are actually able to fly drones, we have established a system that makes it easy for first-time drone operators to get started.
In addition, if you would like to work on digital transformation or business efficiency improvement by newly utilizing drones, we can provide consulting services for introduction and practical application as well as contracted development.

With a proven track record in construction and other surveying fields, Aerosense drones are used at more than 3,000 sites nationwide. Our extensive track record of introducing leading domestic drones is a testament to the quality and usability of our products.
We are also actively working to develop and improve the performance of aircraft that will further expand the range of drone applications. In particular, the Aerobo Wing, a fixed-wing VTOL (Vertical Takeoff and Landing) drone that can fly long distances and for long periods of time, is a revolutionary technology that enables drones to measure and photograph wide areas that previously had to be handled by satellite photography, Cessna aircraft, and helicopters. This will reduce the cost of surveying, inspection, and disaster prevention work, and enable high-precision work to be carried out more frequently.
Aerosense will continue to contribute to the spread and technological development of domestically produced drones by leveraging its unique product capabilities and expertise in practical application.
In the drone industry, foreign-made drones account for a large share of sales.
On the other hand, some of the data that can be collected by drones is related to the safety and stability of economic activities and social life. For this reason, the adoption of domestically produced drones is recommended in Japan from the perspective of economic security.
It is also important to note that domestically produced drones are developed to suit the working environment and business practices in Japan. Aerosense drones are not only provide manuals and support in Japanese, but also support the form formats required by government and other public domains. The advantage of using a domestically produced drone is that it is "easy to use onsite" and fits the workflow in Japan.
PRODUCTS
Drones
We develop and provide drone aircraft that contribute to various industries, such as domestically produced UAVs (unmanned aerial vehicles) that can acquire highly accurate positioning information and fly independently, and VTOLs (vertical takeoff and landing fixed wing aircraft) that can fly over wide areas and long distances.
