The engineering materials used to build drones are designed to absorb vibration and make the drones lighter and quieter. A video camera mounted on the drone broadcasts live video to the pilot on the ground, allowing the pilot to see through the drone's perspective. Microsoft and DJI are partnering to allow Windows applications to control DJI drones and integrate payloads like sensors. Microsoft and Airmap are also partnering to deliver an airspace management platform on Azure for authorizing drone flights according to local rules.
