With thanks to Research and Development funding from NIWA Coasts & Ocean Programme 4 and the MBIE/Royal Society New Zealand Catalyst Seeding project.
X-craft Enterprises is one of New Zealand's most well established and respected UAV specialists. The company originated as a Research and Development organisation focused on the design, development and prototype manufacture of robotic systems for the sea and air. The primary sector of operations is unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV) also known as unmanned aerial systems (UAS) or drones.
X-craft operates fixed wing aircraft, multirotor and hybrid aerial vehicles. We are internationally recognised as specialists in disaster response, including search and rescue operations, with many platforms designed specifically for this area of operations.
As well as developing unique aircraft platforms, X-craft conducts many types of commercial field operations with a wide range of sensor payloads. Standard payloads include, Infra-red (IR), multi-spectral imagery (MSI), LiDAR, radio tracking systems and custom communication relay systems.
X-craft provides UAV repairs and maintenance services and strong, on-going logistical support to any system that we have either developed or deployed.
X-craft provides extensive consultancy services. With a strong background in R&D, X-craft has excellent international connections within the scientific community and therefore has a comprehensive knowledge of leading edge technologies. X-craft is particularly involved in developing complete system solutions, not just the hardware involved but the total information chain, identifying the data targets and maximising the information output. We start with accurately identifying the problem and develop the best possible solution.
X-craft has developed partnerships with several international companies who are specialists in componentry and payloads. This includes gimbal systems with various optical, infrared and non-optical elements such as the UKR Spec systems. This also includes ADS-B and RIB systems, communication relay, advanced hardware and software sensor systems. We have a wide range of rotary and fixed wing aircraft, including UKR Spec systems fixed wing and multirotor aircraft. In addition to this we undertake our own R&D projects for clients requiring specialist capability to develop custom aircraft solutions.
X-craft is proud to be a member of the UAVNZ industry body organisation and upholds New Zealand Civil Aviation Authority Part 102 certification which demonstrates our commitment to the highest safety standards, code of conduct and values of professionalism.
X-craft is the architect of the Rescue Robotics project, a system that brings a uniquely holistic rapid response approach to any Emergency Event.
X-craft has a special company mandate for environmental and humanitarian missions.
