The rise of drones from garage-built experiments to critical infrastructure reshaped the balance of innovation between the U.S. and China. In this article, our own Austin Carder follows that evolution and shows how autonomy, supply chains, and advanced inspection with determine the next decade of drone development.

Our CEO Eduardo Torrealba sat down with Ye Wang to talk through the origin of Lumafield and the ideas that led to our formation. Have a listen! ⬇️ 🎧
In our first Small Miracle, I had the pleasure of speaking with Eduardo Torrealba from Lumafield. Eduardo and I were both in the 3D printing world around the same time, and since then he’s embarked on an entirely new journey — building CT scanners for products! After all these years, it was our first time working together, and I’m always inspired by Eduardo’s vision for the future of hardware development. It was also my first time hearing the full story behind how Lumafield came to be, and it’s a fascinating one. Hope you all enjoy! #SmallMiracle #EverCurrent #HardwareStartups #ProductDevelopment #EngineeringLeadership #3DPrinting #FounderStories #DeepTech

Skydio CEO Adam Bry joins Jon Bruner to talk about how drones have evolved from toys to tools to infrastructure, and how autonomy and AI could help American manufacturers regain ground in an industry long dominated by China. Jon and Alex also cover this week’s headlines: the FCC’s new authority to ban DJI drones, private jet owners renting engines during supply shortages, the death of San Francisco’s bodega cat KitKat by a Waymo car, and more.

Our new Professional Services pair our engineers with your team to design custom fixtures and recipes tailored to your inspection needs. Custom fixtures enable quick setup and consistent, repeatable positioning so results are directly comparable across operators and sites. Custom recipe development transforms scanning from an individual task into a standardized, automated workflow — from running analysis modules to quickly setting up positioning. See how our team can speed up your processes. ⬇️ https://lnkd.in/gmfcZ_6G

Hidden solder defects can take down circuit boards and even entire products long before engineers know what went wrong. Join Wesley Thio tomorrow November 5th 10AM PST to see how industrial X-ray CT uncovers voids and other internal failures helping manufacturers build more reliable electronics. 🔽 https://lnkd.in/gmfDyrnW
