ParaZero Technologies Ltd. announced it has expanded its collaboration with Vayu Aerospace Corporation. The two companies worked together over the past two years enhancing safety solutions for Vayu?s commercial and military vertical take-off and landing (VTOL) aircraft. According to Research and Markets the global market for VTOL unmanned aerial vehicles is projected to reach a size of $27.5 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 19.9% between 2022 and 2030.  With this new collaboration, ParaZero will customize its SafeAir system to be integrated at the design stage of Vayu's G-1MKII VTOL aircraft.  The two companies also have performance-based regulatory compliance testing and validation planned for the near future to unlock a range of use cases for Vayu?s global customers.

ParaZero?s SafeAir is an uncrewed aircraft system (UAS) parachute recovery system that mitigates flight risks autonomously. The SafeAir system is equipped with integrated sensors that continuously monitor and analyze the drone?s flight patterns to identify any indications of a critical failure. When triggered, the SmartAir Pro?, ParaZero?s onboard computer, responds with an instantaneous activation of the SafeAir system.

The system cuts power to the drone, alerts people on the ground with an audible alarm, and deploys a lightweight parachute, bringing the drone down to the ground in a safe, controlled descent.
