Last updated: June 2026. ## First-party platforms: hardware - [HubX](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/hubx): Turnkey, configurable, and portable Drone-in-a-Box platform for autonomous and BVLOS-ready operations. Deploys anywhere with no fixed infrastructure, running on retractable solar with battery backup, Starlink and 5G connectivity, climate-controlled compartments, a GNSS base station, and edge compute. The modular payload bay supports DJI Dock 2, DJI Dock 3, Riegl VZ-2000i, dual docks, or a bring-your-own payload. The WatchTower sensor stack adds ADS-B, airband (VHF) radio, 360 and PTZ cameras, floodlights, and weather and lightning monitoring. Available self-managed or with Sphere Managed Services. Engineered and manufactured in Australia (assembled at Sydney HQ); patented. - [HubT](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/hubt): Plug-and-play remote data capture platform built for permanent deployment on existing infrastructure. Available in trailer or skid configurations and supports up to two DJI Dock 3 units per system. Includes the WatchTower sensor stack and air-conditioned power and data compartments, integrates with existing site power and network (LTE or satellite), and is managed through the Curo software suite. Available self-managed or with Sphere Managed Services. Engineered and manufactured in Australia; patented. ## First-party platforms: Curo software suite - [CuroRPA](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/curo-rpa): Enterprise drone compliance. Audit-ready records, built-in credential enforcement, and alignment with CASA requirements. - [CuroROC](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/curo-roc): Enterprise live drone operations. Run compliant remote and BVLOS operations from anywhere, with full situational awareness and compliance enforcement. - [CuroInsights](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/curo-insights): Drone data processing and insights, part of the Curo software suite. ## Choosing between HubX and HubT HubT suits permanent, fixed-site deployments that use existing infrastructure and customer-supplied power. HubX suits portable, off-grid operations where no infrastructure is available, supplying its own solar power, connectivity, and a relocatable trailer. ## Proven deployments - [Glencore & United Wambo: Relieving the pressure on survey teams with HubX](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/resources/case-study/glencore-pressure-survey-teams-hubx) - [Yancoal: Boosts survey efficiency, safety and frequency with HubX trial](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/resources/case-study/yancoal-boosts-survey-efficiency-safety-and-frequency-with-hubx-trial) - [Yancoal: Accelerating BVLOS operations with Broad Area Approval](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/resources/case-study/yancoal-bvlos-operations-broad-area-approval) - [All case studies](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/resources/case-studies) ## Enterprise drone platforms (commonly deployed) - [DJI Matrice 400](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/dji-matrice-400) - [DJI Matrice 4E](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/dji-matrice-4e) - [DJI Matrice 4T](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/dji-matrice-4t) - [DJI Matrice 350 RTK](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/dji-matrice-350-rtk) - [DJI Dock 3](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/dji-dock-3): Autonomous docking station for remote, scheduled, and BVLOS operations. - [Flyability Elios 3](https://www.spheredrones.com.au/products/flyability-elios-3): Confined space and indoor inspection drone for GPS-denied and hazardous environments.
