Qualcomm Flight™ RB5 5G Platform Drone Reference Design
Qualcomm Flight RB5 5G Platform Drone Reference Design
A ready to fly Qualcomm RB5 drone reference design with low-power, high-performance heterogeneous computing, artificial intelligence engine that delivers 15 TOPS, long-range Wi-Fi 6 and 5G (optional) connectivity, support for 7 camera concurrency, computer vision, and vault-like security.
For integrators looking to develop their own 5G drone, the Sentinel with VOXL® 2 may be a more straight-forward path. VOXL 2 enables drone developers to create their own 5G drones, and Sentinel is a VOXL 2 Development Drone that can support 5G.
