Swarm Systems Ltd is developing nano unmanned aerial systems called "Flying Binoculars" for surveillance and reconnaissance. Their current "Sugar cube" model can operate in various environments like air, land, sea and underground. Phase 2 of their project LiveFUSE will address key questions for autonomous navigation like location, route safety and collision avoidance. They estimate a $0.25 billion market for "Flying Binoculars" over the next 5 years and are seeking partners to help scale manufacturing, marketing and research.
