Easy Aerial Announces $6.15M in Series A Funding
Company continues to expand its global presence with new offices in Israel
Brooklyn, New York - August 25, 2020 - Easy Aerial, a leading provider of autonomous drone-based monitoring solutions for commercial, government, and military applications, announced today that it has successfully raised $6.15M in Series A funding.
This funding round was led by the same private investment group that participated in the company's initial seed rounds totaling $4.75M between 2017 and 2019. The oversold round, which was closed prior to its opening, also saw the participation of several new strategic investors.
The lead private investment group's continual support and sustained investment in Easy Aerial, along with the addition of new strategic investors, is a testament to the tremendous confidence the private investment community has in the company, even amidst COVID-19-related uncertainties.
The new investment round will enable Easy Aerial to further capitalize on its position as a leading innovator in autonomous monitoring solutions. This includes rapidly scaling to meet growing commercial, government, and military demand in both the United States and internationally and adding new sales and support offices in Israel.
"New product innovation is a key area of focus for Easy Aerial, and this investment means we have the resources to develop game-changing, robust, and versatile systems that define the reputation and execution excellence that is inherent in our mission," said Ido Gur, Co-Founder, and CEO of Easy Aerial.
Designed and manufactured in the United States, Easy Aerial solutions are rugged, durable, all-weather capable, and designed to operate in the most inhospitable environments with little to no infrastructure support. The company's line of Smart Aerial Monitoring Systems (SAMS) includes free-flight and tethered autonomous systems that accommodate a variety of sensor payloads. With the ability to deploy anywhere, the systems take off and land from a portable, rechargeable enclosure without the need for on-site human intervention.

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!
This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
