Zero Zero Robotics is a China-based company that has been working on self-flying drone technology since 2014 and employs roughly 70 people. Its first product, Hover, is a lightweight (240g) self-flying camera drone designed for easy close-up video capture without manual piloting. Hover packs a 13MP sensor capable of 4K video and uses custom electronic image stabilization instead of a mechanical gimbal. The drone includes preprogrammed features such as hover-in-place, face and body recognition follow modes, and 360-degree pano recording to simplify use for novices. The company says it will replicate Hover’s self-flying capabilities in future products and plans to ship Hover this summer. Zero Zero has raised $25M in funding to support the product launch and development, composed mainly of a $23M Series A.
