8/10/2021 01:31:00 AM

Automated airplane technology development company for unmanned aerial vehicles – Attracted investment of 40 million dollars

XWING develops the suite of technologies for pilotless commercial flight of vertical takeoff and landing (VTOL) and fixed-wing aircraft.

XWING-Autonomous Flight Technology for Unmanned Aircraft

Unlike other competitors that aim to manufacture unmanned aerial vehicles, XWING focuses on developing automatic flight software with basic functions such as sensing, reasoning and control.

The hurdle to introduce airlines is low because it is independent of the aircraft type and can be integrated with the existing system, and FAA approval is pending with the goal of commercial operation in 2021.

XWING

Xwing develops the suite of technologies necessary for the pilotless flight of small passenger aircraft. Based in the heart of San Francisco, Xwing is a VCbacked company assembling world-class engineering talent from the aerospace and software industries.
