Intel has long been known as a company engaged in the computer processor industry, but with the development of technology to make the company more adaptable and the company will not constantly cultivate only processor products.
It is not surprising news if Intel wants to expand their business in drone technology, which is currently unmanned aircraft industry is very significant growth. This time it is not about design or chipset reference point for drones, but Intel really produce drones with the Intel brand called Intel Falcon 8+.
This is not the first news of Intel wrestle with the drone, as previously rumored the company has partnered with Ascending Technologies, but this is the first step in producing a drone itself Intel with the Intel brand. Unlike drones made by other companies such as Parrot DJI, Intel Falcon 8+ not reserved for fans of the drone, but it is an unmanned aircraft that made for industrial workers.
For example it can be used on construction work where 8+ Falcon can fly around the site to survey the different kinds of things and also for the purpose of inspection, where such activities may take hours if done manually by humans without the help of drones. In addition, the drone also has a waterproof cockpit so the pilot does not have to worry about the drones that will be damaged even if exposed to rain.
Falcon 8+ weighs 2.7 kilos and is capable of reaching speeds up to 56 kmh, much faster than most drones for hobbies out there that already exist on the market today. Unfortunately, the company has not mentioned about the price, but that obviously Falcon 8+ will not be priced cheap.
