About Drone Show Software
The Drone Show Software is the world’s safest, most robust, and innovative software for drone light shows. With safety and performance as a priority, our technology is constantly tested, and continuously improved to meet demands for industry evolution.
Alerts
Our safety-enhancing Alerts feature was developed by data, analysis, and impact of 70+ emergency situations over the past 8 years. This advanced early warning system instantly informs operators of potential issues or system failures, so that problems can be swiftly resolved before danger or damage occurs.
Double Geofence and Hardfence
Prior to every flight, our drones receive an uploaded virtual geofence for enhanced safety measures. If the drone approaches the geofence, RETURN HOME will be automatically triggered. If the drone surpasses the geofence and reaches the system-designated hardfence border, a DISARM action will be activated and the drone will be safely grounded.
GPS corrections redundancy
RTK GPS corrections are transmitted through Wi-Fi, as well as a secondary channel (433/915 MHz). If a drone loses Wi-Fi mid-flight, communication will continue seamlessly through the secondary channel. Emergency commands - HOLD, RETURN HOME, LAND, or DISARM - can be efficiently transmitted through either channel.
Red Button
In case of a malfunction of the main PC, the red button allows you to stop the show and return the drones home, if necessary.
Time Code
Drone Show Software incorporates a timecode-adapted module, which enables precise coordination and synchronization with external devices, music sources, and DJ consoles. The drone system time automatically adjusts when differing from GPS time by more than 100 ms.
DSS Controller
Visualize all drone locations in 3D with DSS 3D Map Interface. Monitor real-time weather conditions and forecast changes. Minimize collision risk with smart Return-to-Home functionality. Easily import VVIZ animations into Finale 3D software, and convert VVIZ formats to PATH3 files.

Drone show simulation
Drone show pilots can simulate flights without real drones, allowing risk-free practice for both experienced pilots and new team members using firmware identical to that installed on the actual drones.
Animation
When uploading animation to drones, it is crucial to adhere to industry distance regulations and ensure speed compliance. Our Blender plugin, combined with Path Viewer or Drone Show Creator, empowers designers with the ability to verify permissible limits. The exceptional quality of 24 FPS animation offers a modern TV-quality refresh rate, in addition to dynamic and unique features like strobe effects.
Our software supports both light and pyro missions, with a variety of integrated commands to instantly change LED colors in the animation, or to adjust the drone YAW position to rotate fireworks.
