AERIAL DRONE CHOREOGRAPHIES IN THE SKY
A step forward in the world of events and shows with state-of-the-art technology. A new redefinition of traditional fireworks, which can also be combined with these shows. With swarms of up to 1000 drones that replicate 16 million colours to generate volumetric images in the sky, with high visual and creative impact, as well as communication.
- UMILES Drone Light Show, a pioneering company in the use of drones in Spain since 2016, specialises in providing light show services with drones at an international level. It has worked with major brands and the main city councils in the country. With extensive experience in Catalonia and Barcelona, it also operates throughout Spain. In addition to having offices in Latin America, UMILES stands out for being the leading company in light shows with drones, both in public and private events, having carried out more than 300 shows around the world, and being part of major milestones such as being the first company to perform these shows in Scandinavia, operating in Europe, Latin America and the Middle East.
The six advantages of performing a drone show are:
Media coverage and viral dissemination on networks: these shows arouse great general interest and attract the attention of the media, which guarantees wide dissemination on social networks.
Maximum Safety: we take care of studying, processing and complying with all air safety measures, managing permits with AESA (Spanish Aviation Safety Agency). We have a specialised department with extensive experience, responsible for planning, coordinating and carrying out each event.
Innovative: light shows with drones are avant-garde and current services that generate great expectation.
No noise and explosions: designed to minimise the impact on people and animals sensitive to loud noises.
Ecological: We focus on minimising waste generation, using energy efficiently and ensuring the proper treatment of batteries, thus contributing to the protection of the environment.
Exclusive: We design according to the customer’s preferences, from colour selection to synchronisation with the music.
Aerial displays with drones are redefining the concept of traditional fireworks, providing a wide range of alternatives or even combining them with pyrotechnics or video mapping among others. Our drones are equipped with state-of-the-art software that allows us to replicate a wide range of colours, as well as around 15 figures and visual effects in each show.
UMILES drones are equipped with cutting-edge technology and RGB LED lights, capable of generating around 16 million colours. This advanced technology makes it possible to create a wide repertoire of shapes and effects full of light and movement.
At UMILES, creativity, safety and flawless execution are our values. We can give image and form to any idea, from fantastic animals, to animated characters, phrases and even emblematic places, such as buildings or historical monuments. All of this can be complemented, as required, with music and/or video narration, creating a unique visual and auditory experience.
OPERATION OF A DRONE LIGHT SHOW
The drones used for light shows weigh less than 1 kg and use 3D graphics and animation software to coordinate movement and lighting, ensuring perfect synchronisation and execution of choreography. In this way, complex patterns, striking figures and even moving animations and three-dimensional effects can be created. In this way, stories can be told or client-specific messages can be conveyed in an impactful and visually appealing way.
The number of drones used in a show determines the resolution and detail of the images. A higher number of drones allows for a higher pixel density, resulting in sharper and more defined images. This means that more complex figures and animations can be depicted.
The exhibitions are conducted under the strictest safety standards, covering two levels:
- Aviation safety
- Ground safety
This type of drone shows always take place at night. Depending on the time of year, the times can vary from 18:00 hours in winter time, or at any time until dawn.
MAXIMUM AVIATION SAFETY AT EVERY SHOW
At UMILES, safety is our top priority, implementing the necessary measures and protocols to guarantee the protection of people, property and the environment during each flight.
Among our services, we have a Security Department specialised in the analysis of the suitability of each show, in charge of planning, coordination and execution. In addition, we manage all permits and authorisations related to air safety, facilitating the process for our clients.
We are in charge of coordinating the flight zones and safety systems for our drones. This includes the management of the necessary procedures to obtain the aerial regulations and permits according to the State Aviation Safety Agency (AESA) and the Barcelona City Council or any city council in Catalonia.
The drones are equipped with a device that prevents them from leaving the designated airspace, maintaining the required safety distance at all times, occupying the established spaces in a precise and coordinated manner, always under the supervision of our operations teams, guaranteeing safety and precision during the show.
Technological innovation
Geofencing
Safety devices built into our drones ensure a safe and secure show, precisely controlling flight and keeping drones within designated airspace.
Kill Switch (interruptor de apagado)
Collision avoidance systems: These specialised sensors collect information on distance, speed and direction. They then transmit this data to the drone’s control system for analysis, allowing it to avoid obstacles in its environment.
Sistemas anticolisión
This is a safety mechanism that ensures the drone remains in the flight area.
