Asia’s biggest drone exhibition “Drone Show Korea 2017” will be held in Haeundae, Busan, from Jan. 19-21.
Co-hosted by the Ministry of Trade, Industry and Energy and the city government, the exhibition will feature 350 booths from 80 companies at BEXCO Exhibition Hall in a bigger show than the last year, according to Yonhap news agency.
More than 30 experts in the drone industry will discuss its future.
“Visitors will be able to get a glimpse of the industry’s future, especially its application to air traffic control and the GPS system,” said a local government official.
“There is also a variety of participatory events for the public to learn how to handle drones correctly, such as Drone Flying Experience.”
Several public institutions including the National Police Agency, the Ministry of Public Safety and Security, and the Aviation Safety Technology Center will also attend the event to seek ways to apply drone technology to their services.
