Terra Drone Corporation has added a signal recovery feature to its Terra Xross 1 indoor inspection drone, it announced on Tuesday. The Tokyo-based company developed the capability through the Nippon Foundation and DeepStar joint technology program, drawing on feedback from consortium members Chevron and Shell. The company said the lower price point has helped expand adoption of indoor drone inspections across critical infrastructure sectors. Terra Drone joined the Nippon Foundation and DeepStar program to align the drone's development with field requirements from operators. Terra Drone said it plans to continue working with infrastructure owners, operators, and inspection firms to develop features based on field feedback.
