About BVLOS: BVLOS is the second stage of testing drones and UAVs, as drones are generally operated within the visual line of sight during the first phase of testing. If the two stages are completed successfully, further clearance will be sought from the authorities to explore the possibility of vaccine delivery using drones.
- BVLOS trials will help create a framework for future drone deliveries and other major applications using drones.
The government had constituted the ‘BVLOS Experiment Assessment and Monitoring (BEAM) Committee’ to invite Expression of Interest (EOI) to undertake BVLOS experimental flights of drones.
