And we're building with that the prototypes for the automated UAVs and something very special, which is the landing platform.
The landing platform is one of our biggest
aces under our sleeves so to say because the idea is that with that we will be able to change and swap batteries and have the UAV land there and be protected from weather and other environment and that will be able to give autonomy to the UAV so that it can fly and land without anyone touching it or even controlling it from
I mean, we can control it from a distance.
So this is something we're building and we will apply it also to the solar company, which is just for mapping and doing 3D renders.
But then we will also move it to and apply it to precision agriculture, which is another huge potential application.
So right now, actually, it's not that many.
We're approximately three or four.
It depends on whether we could hire them.
Some of them are based with me 24-7.
Others are based by project.
We're based in Mexico, but we are already trying to start some side projects or applications in other countries such as Colombia, but we are still not sure about that.
at the beginning of 2016.
So I was working at the New Mexico.
I was a CTO developing technology for solar applications.
Then I went to this summer camp, so to say, that is called Singularity University, where I met a lot of amazing people.
And they enlightened me, so to say, in terms of technology and the trends for the future.
And then I realized that UAVs
are going to be huge, not only because they're amazing, that's a piece of beyond the point, but because they have very important aspects of technology that are going to grow exponentially.
Some of them are, for example, the science of material sciences, other are computer algorithms, sensors, and all of these combined together in a UAV will make them be able to grow very, very quickly with a very low cost.
