About Differential Robotics

Differential Robotics (微分智飞, Weifen Zhifei) is a Hangzhou-based flying-robot and embodied intelligence company building a general aerial robot brain and swarm intelligence systems. Its mission is to connect flying robots with a wide range of industries and bring them into everyday life, and its stated vision is to become a global leader in flying embodied intelligence and to build an ecosystem of aerial intelligent terminals.

The technology rests on four core capabilities: autonomous navigation that needs no GPS, prior maps or human operation and avoids obstacles in mines, forests and tunnels; an AI decision brain driven by a data-and-intelligence flywheel for real-time decisions on dynamic tasks; an end-to-end perception and control cerebellum with millisecond response for agile, dexterous flight; and distributed multi-drone collaboration with dynamic ad hoc networking, laying the foundation for a distributed robot operating system. The company is working towards a foundation model for flying robots that can serve home, industrial, urban and natural settings.

The industrial flying robot P300 Pro is aimed at inspection and mapping in demanding environments such as rail transit, mine goafs, power utility tunnels and under-canopy forests. The Feitu education and research line, including the Feitu-alpha Pro, serves universities and research institutes with a platform that makes algorithm development easier. The company holds a civil unmanned aircraft operator certificate and a quality-management certification, and its listed recognitions include regional robot product and growth awards.

Differential Robotics sells aerial robot hardware and application solutions to industrial customers and to research and education institutions, and competes in the Chinese drone and low-altitude economy market, differentiating through GPS-free autonomy and swarm collaboration rather than manually piloted drones.
