Research and Markets: The Drones Report 2015: The Commercial Business Opportunities, Advances and BarriersResearch and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x6kmqt/the_drones_report) has announced the addition of Business Insider Intelligence's new report "The Drones Report" to their offering. The fast-growing global drone industry has not sat back waiting for government policy to be hammered out before pouring investment and effort into opening up this all-new hardware and computing market. A growing ecosystem of drone software and hardware vendors is already catering to a long list of clients in agriculture, land management, energy, and construction. Many of the vendors are smallish private companies and startups although large defense-focused companies and industrial conglomerates are beginning to invest in drone technology, too. In this report, we take a deep dive into the various leels of the growing global industry for commercial drones, or unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). This 32-page report provides forecasts for the business opportunity in commercial drone technology, looks at advances and persistent barriers, highlights the top business-to-business markets in terms of applications and end users, and provides an exclusive list of dozens of notable companies already active in the space. Finally, it digs into the current state of US regulation of commercial drones, recently upended by the issuing of the Federal Aviation Administration's draft rules for commercial drone flights. Few people know that many companies are already authorized to fly small drones commercially under a US government "exemption" program. In full, this report: - Contains two detailed tables listing all the US companies already authorized to fly drones commercially, the brand/model of UAVs they'll use, and the applications they're supporting - Details the implications of the FAA's new proposed rules for commercial drones - Explores the top applications for commercial drones and why they have emerged as niches friendly to UAV technology - Lists the high-level attributes of UAV systems and hardware, and why there are certain obstacles that remain difficult - Contains charts on commercial-drone market size, FAA exemptions, and direct economic impact For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/x6kmqt/the_drones_report Source (News - Alert): Business Insider Intelligence
