Founded in 2015, Dragonfly UAS has completed over 24,000 flight missions and supported more than 400 public and private sector organizations in adopting drone solutions. Our mission experience spans engineering surveying, disaster response, solar panel inspection, facility management, and defense training. We’ve partnered with local governments, national universities, research institutions, and private enterprises across Taiwan, delivering tailored solutions that meet the unique demands of each sector. Through years of hands-on operation and cross-industry collaboration, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, innovation, and results.
Dragonfly UAS provides one-stop integrated services—from mission consulting and training to payload setup and on-site operations—ensuring drone applications are safe, legal, and effective in real-world use.
We continuously enhance our service by investing in not just drone technology, but also workflow design, regulatory compliance, and data processing. Every flight is more precise, safer, and more valuable.
In 2015, Dragonfly UAS was founded during the inaugural year of the drone industry’s rise. While consumer-grade drones were gaining popularity at the time, Dragonfly chose a more specialized path—focusing on application-driven technology integration and real-world implementation. Initially launched as “Dragonfly Automation Co., Ltd.,” the company brought together a team of experts from aerospace, electrical engineering, geography, and engineering fields, continuously exploring the practical value of drones across various industries.
As mission scale grew, Dragonfly officially rebranded to “Dragonfly UAS Co., Ltd.” in 2019. In 2021, the company transitioned into a publicly-held corporation, fully committing to large-scale projects, government partnerships, and the development of advanced equipment, continuing to drive the evolution of Taiwan’s drone industry.
