The beginning of 2020 is special to most Chinese – with a sudden coronavirus outbreak firstly occurred in Wuhan, China, all cities joined to fight with efforts. Shenzhen MicroMultiCopter (MMC) quickly launched the UAV prevention solutions and invested a service team of over 200 people rushing to the front line with over 100 drones deployed in many cities such as Shanghai, Guangzhou, Zhaoqing, and other areas to participate in the battles, by which the risk of spreading among front-line staffs has been greatly reduced.
Aerial broadcasting
Instead of artificially patrolling, drones are capable of 360°patrols to observe the ground condition through 40x zoom cameras. Crowds and those who doesn’t wear masks in public places are found and dispersed by the commanders through onboard megaphones. Daily broadcasting by drones is carrying out in different communities.
Disinfectant spraying
From stations, supermarkets to small courtyards where there is a need, MMC drones are used to spray disinfectant in public places. Compared to traditional way, using drones can avoid direct contact especially in those places required regular disinfection.
Aerial thermal sensing
The drone with thermal camera will automatically sense each person through high accuracy infrared which has been widely used in crowded areas to assist in onsite management and evacuation.
Traffic control
Since 1st Feb, MMC teams have been working with traffic police to monitor the traffic flow. With larger coverage than fixed cameras, MMC drones greatly helped commanders figure out solutions quickly.
“Unlike previous years where we must drive to patrol and gather information, we can now discover everything using drones”
a local traffic police praised with his thumb-up
Lu Zhihui, chairman of MMC:
“At first, our drones are used only in aerial broadcasting, and it goes deeper in front-line use since the situation is getting more serious, further functions are required so we quickly formed an online R&D team and carried out the solutions”
