Perceptron says its Mk1.5 drone can fly short missions like home inspection, construction mapping, and search & rescue. The approach exposes a drone's controls as tools: Mk1.5 watches camera feeds, reasons about what it sees, and actuates. The team is starting with constrained, practical applications as it explores responsible deployment.
