- Dock -
Easy data capture in the hardest places.
Obtain limitless visibility and automate inspection of your sites with autonomous, remote drone operations anywhere.

Access high-risk areas safely
Send intelligent, self-flying drones rather than people when there is risk of fall, debris, radiation, or other hazards. Complex indoor or outdoor environments are no obstacle for Skydio.

Standardize repetitive inspections
Capture the same high-quality dataset repeatedly with precise, AI-powered Autonomous Missions to monitor progress and detect changes without the need for a human on site or in the loop.

Be in multiple places at once
Remotely operate your worldwide drone fleet and obtain critical, real-time data from the convenience and comfort of your desk or anywhere else using a secure, trusted solution.

Gain continuous awareness
Continuously patrol any environment with autonomous eyes in the sky, or manually control the drone from anywhere for instant visibility, obtaining the point of view only a drone can capture.

Trusted by the worldf s most demanding organizations.
Skydio Dock is making an impact across industries by performing continuous monitoring, recurring inspection, scheduled patrol, and enabling on-demand visibility without the need for a person on site.

Organizations save time and money, and more importantly, increase safety across their sites.

Itf s only possible with Skydio Autonomy.
A successful dock program relies on drones that are trusted to sense their environment and fly themselves. Skydio is the only truly intelligent drone built with an autonomy architecture and an integrated hardware-software approach.

With the groundbreaking Skydio Visual Positioning System (VPS), Skydio maps its environment in real time and remembers it for future missions.

Dock where others canf t.
Skydio Dock is the smallest and lightest system of its kind with a footprint of just 4 square feet and weighing only 62 pounds. Dock installs easily and works with your existing infrastructure, giving you the freedom to deploy Skydio in tight, complex spaces no other drone would dare to venture.

Fly complex indoor environments
Cutting-edge vision-based navigation and unmatched obstacle avoidance.

Fly harsh outdoor conditions
Rugged, weatherized protection and temperature regulation for extreme environments.

Operate in secure locations
Made and supported in the U.S. Secure wireless encryption. SOC II Type 2 certification.

Lightweight. And heavy-duty.

Strong Frame
Skydio Dock may not weigh much, but itf s far from a lightweight. The front is made of super-strong polycarbonate and the main enclosure is industrial-grade aluminum.

Weatherized
Skydio Dock provides IP56 grade protection against the elements for continuous operations no matter the location or conditions.

Temperature Regulation
Temperature regulation keeps the battery and drone in optimal temperature ranges. Plus, a heated roof and door fixture to combat winter icing and snow.

Skydio Dock contains a launch, landing, and charging pedestal that fits either Skydio 2+ Dock-compatible batteries. Drone systems cannot be swapped by the customer. Skydio Dock supports:
• Skydio 2+ indoor operations in environments that are not secure or clean

Standard Skydio 2+ batteries will not work with Skydio Dock. To use your existing Skydio 2+ Dock, you will need to purchase Dock-compatible batteries.

Skydio Dock for Skydio 2+ is not IP rated, but it is protected from light splash and spills, with limited dust ingress protection..

Note: Additional purchase of Dock Lighthouse Partner Service (S2+) is mandatory
