Mapture.ai
Dutch drone-in-a-box maker whose systems launch, fly missions and land fully autonomously for 24/7 unattended monitoring, with onboard computer vision processing at the edge. Deployed with the Dutch Fire Brigade, where drones auto-launch on alarm and stream situational awareness to first responders en route, and with Rijkswaterstaat, where an onboard vision algorithm detects and reports occupied truck parking spots. Claimed first Dutch company to fly fully autonomous 24/7 BVLOS operations. Founded by Bart Slinger and Niels Klink out of the TU Delft MAVLab ecosystem; largely bootstrapped with backing from Space Business Innovation Centre Noordwijk.
