Skylum Software Accepting Drone Donations for Ukraine Resistance
The unprovoked Russian invasion of Ukraine has passed the 2 week mark and Ukrainian forces are putting up a mighty resistance. Volunteer fighters from all over the globe are joining the fight to help repel the Russian aggression.
But even from thousands of miles away, there’s now a way you can support Ukrainian fighters: with a drone donation.
US based Skylum Software, makers of AI-powered photo editing software Luminar, is helping to answer the call to strengthen Ukrainian surveillance with donations of recreational drones.
Our defenders can act faster and more decisively with the help of drones and provide better security to civilians with prior warnings about imminent danger. Your drone will be saving lives!
First reported by the Associated Press, Ukrainian drone hobbyists have been using their aerial cameras to locate Russian convoys and then share images and GPS location data with Ukrainian forces.
And now Skylum has stepped in to organize donations of drone from around the world, handling the logisticis and distribution to Ukrainian troops via their facility in Poland.
