For Benjamin David, founder of the start-up XSun, “the growth of the drone sector has two main obstacles: their low autonomy and safety regulations.” To meet this double challenge, he found inspiration in the aerospace sector he came from: transposing the concept of satellites to a finer altimetric scale to design an autonomous and resilient solar drone. So was born the SolarXOne project.
Powered by photovoltaic cells and monitored remotely from a ground control, SolarXOne is an effective, economical and sustainable solution. Its uniqueness: a double-support wing that increases the surface available to host photovoltaic cells and ensure optimal flight performance.
Accelerated by the 3DEXPERIENCE Lab, XSun is using the 3DEXPERIENCE platform on the cloud to enable its teams to effectively design, simulate and test its drone, thanks to the Reinvent the Sky solution.
