Drone Invasion at NAB Show 2015

Drone Invasion at NAB Show 2015 1

This year’s NAB Show is going to be buzzing with drones/UAVs – both literally and figuratively! Starting with two-full-day workshops out in the desert in the Nelson Ghost Town and moving into the NAB Show Expo at the Las Vegas Convention Center, there will be several exhibitors demonstrating their gear as well as several conference sessions plus an all new Aerial Robotics & Drone Pavilion, which will feature scheduled demos and presentations throughout the show with a 30×30′ flying cage and several exhibitors.

NAB Show 2015 Aerial Robotics and Drone Pavilion

This is the first year this special demonstration cage and exhibitor community is being presented at the NAB Show. The new Aerial Robotics and Drone Pavilion features a 30×30′ fully enclosed “flying cage” that gives you an up-close and personal look at this technology in action. This is no mere fly by. A panel of industry experts — inclusive of broadcasters and Exhibitors — will take you through all aspects of employing aerial technology. All sessions at the 85+ seat Drone Pavilion Flying/Demo Cage are free and open to the public (with an Expo badge).
