StoreDot Demonstrates World's First 5-Minute Charge of a Commercial Drone, Making Continuous & Fully-Autonomous Drone Delivery a Reality
• StoreDot brings ultra-fast charging (UFC) to the drone market for the first time, reducing charging times from a minimum of one hour to just 5 minutes (see video here)
• UFC overcomes two of the major barriers that have prevented the drone industry from realizing its full potential - the need for a "man-in-the-loop" to replace battery packs between missions and restrictions on where charging stations can be located
• Drones now able to spend much more of their flight time engaged in active missions, making the ROI for delivery companies and other commercial drone users significantly more attractive
Q4 2020 Trend: Immediate Delivery Autonomous Forklifts
Fewer than 2% of forklifts sold in North America are automated, yet there has never been a greater need for this technology. Many manufacturers are looking to automate material handling processes because it reduces the potential for COVID-19 exposure by reducing human contact.

Model TR1 Tru-Trac
The Model TR1 Tru-Trac® linear measurement solution is a versatile option for tracking velocity, position, or distance over a wide variety of surfaces. An integrated encoder, measuring wheel, and spring-loaded torsion arm in one, compact unit, the Model TR1 is easy to install. The spring-loaded torsion arm offers adjustable torsion load, allowing the Model TR1 to be mounted in almost any orientation - even upside-down. The threaded shaft on the pivot axis is field reversible, providing mounting access from either side. With operating speeds up to 3000 feet per minute, a wide variety of configuration options - including multiple wheel material options - and a housing made from a durable, conductive composite material that minimizes static buildup, the Model TR1 Tru-Trac® is the ideal solution for countless applications.
