Your Impact
New Ventures is a department within Axon that drives innovation through dedicated R&D and rapid prototyping. Among its most rapidly expanding areas is the development of robotics for law enforcement and tactical use. Following Axon's acquisition of Sky-Hero, the leading Brussels-based provider of tactical UAVs and UGVs, our focus has intensified on creating cutting-edge indoor aerial and ground drones for elite tactical teams in law enforcement and military special operations.
