Founded in 2023, the Odense-headquartered company focuses on edge-AI that functions without cloud connectivity. Its flagship product, Blue Eyes Warbox, identifies mines, IEDs, and ambush drones in real time. The system holds NATO Stock Number 7010-61-019-5238, allowing for standardized procurement by alliance members. Having already documented over 5,000 explosive threat detections with 90% accuracy, the firm is now scaling its modular 4x4 and 6x6 UGV platforms for series production.

CEO Viacheslav Shvaidak noted that the move is less about capital and more about infrastructure. By joining the MITS Accelerator’s third batch, Dropla Tech gains access to a broader ecosystem of 20 portfolio companies, facilitating joint R&D and interoperability. The company has already begun integrating its robotics with software from Germany’s Quantum Systems and signed a cooperation memorandum with Frontline Robotics. Looking ahead, the firm aims to ramp up manufacturing capacity to 3,000 UGVs per year, positioning itself as a central node in the integration of Ukraine’s defense tech into European security frameworks.
