Camera-equipped drones fly into Toronto

Avrobotics and ROV Systems U.K. have launched Avrobotics Canada, a company that offers aerial filming from unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) that use gyro stabilized camera platforms for shooting documentaries, films or commercials.

The Toronto-based operation features two remotely-controlled aircraft, each of which can be flown into places traditional aircraft can’t, including indoor locations, thanks to their small size, and hover or fly up to 30 km/h.

Avrobotics employs experienced pilots and directors of photography and works with Transport Canada to ensure all safety conditions are met, the company said in a statement Monday.
