Drone Rescue Systems GmbH, awarded by the European Space Agency (ESNC-2016), reportedly developed the fastest and most efficient parachute safety solution for drones currently available on the market. The parachute safety solution works autonomously and independently from the drone and ejects the parachute in a fraction of a second, enabling safe commercial and private drone usage even over crowed places.

The main goals of the Drone Rescue products are to reduce the risk of harming people on the ground and to bring down the expensive equipment safely when the drone malfunctions while in flight.
