A few other showcases at the Expo:
-Air Bike Mylu: Single-seat eVTOL urban air taxi; ~10 km/10 min now, targeting 40 km/1 hr
-Excel UAV: S4 surveillance drone (160 km, 3 hr) Vinashak low-cost counter-drone system
-Droneacharya: FPV tactical drones for high-speed, low-latency urban/indoor ops
-BotLab Dynamics: Swarm tech enabling large-scale, GPS-independent coordination
-Vecros: Physical AI drones for autonomous navigation in GPS-denied environments.
Logical progression—Atomberg has entered drone propulsion.
A drone stack = high power-density BLDC motor ESC real-time response firmware. AtomB already owns the full stack—motor design, winding, controller PCB, firmware & control algorithms. Leveraging AtomSENSE algo, this is less reinvention, more scaling ruggedization.
Its 1.5 lakh sq ft Pune facility can produce ~5M units/year, including def-grade systems. Full in-house stack enables 70% indigenous content.
If AtomSENSE evolves to multi-motor coordination, it enables swarm drones & redundancy systems. The same stack extends to robotics actuators, EV auxiliaries & industrial automation.
China-heavy motor & magnet supply chain will be bottleneck to watch out for.
