SHOHAM, Israel, Nov. 13, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mobilicom Limited (Nasdaq: MOB, MOBBW), a provider of cybersecurity and robust solutions for drones and robotics, today announced it has entered a strategic partnership to target the ground control station (GCS) market by combining its expertise in secure software and hardware solutions with U.S. Silicon Valley-based DT Research’s rugged, high-performance computing technology. The collaboration combines cybersecure communication, GCS expertise, and ruggedized technology to create advanced GCS solutions for uncrewed systems in demanding environments.

The tactical GCS market for small sized drones is a subset of the broader $6 billion global uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) CGS market, projected to grow at a CAGR of 22.6% to $26 billion by 2030.
The first product of this partnership, Mobilicom’s 8" Controller Pro, was launched in September 2024 and has been extremely well received, setting new performance standards for secure solutions that meet the demands of both defense and commercial operators. Built to rugged military standards, the 8” Controller Pro is NDAA-compliant and offered at a very competitive price point.
“We’re excited to partner with DT Research, whose expertise in ruggedized, high-performance solutions complements Mobilicom’s history of delivering field-proven GCS platforms.,” said Oren Elkayam, CEO of Mobilicom. “We believe that this collaboration creates a powerful solution to address the rapidly growing GCS market with our focus on defense and commercial operators in the toughest environments.”
