Gremsy, a global leader in high-performance gimbal and payload systems, today
announced a strategic global technology partnership with Nokia to deliver fully integrated VIO and ORUS L payloads for Nokia Drone Networks, Nokia’s turnkey 4G/5G-connected drone-in-a-box solution designed for industrial and public safety use cases.
The collaboration brings together Gremsy’s precision-engineered imaging systems and Nokia Drone Networks to offer a high-performance aerial platform tailored to the needs of infrastructure inspection, industrial surveillance, tactical response, and DFR (Drones as a First Responder) deployments.
Gremsy’s *VIO and *ORUS-L payloads will be supported by Nokia Drone Networks,
delivering high-quality imaging, AI-powered features, and operational flexibility for
autonomous drone-in-a-box deployments. Both payloads offer advanced EO/IR
capabilities, real-time video streaming, and reliable mission performance over secure 4G/5G networks. Available in the second half of 2025, the integration supports a range of use cases including inspection, mapping, and public safety, with further joint drone and payload development planned.
First international showcases and demonstrations have already started in early 2025, highlighting the combined system’s readiness for operations. The offering supports mission-critical use cases including infrastructure inspection, industrial surveillance, tactical response, and DFR (Drones as a First Responder).
“This partnership is more than technical compatibility—it’s about readiness for real-world missions. By integrating VIO and ORUS L into Nokia Drone Networks, we’re enabling high-performance, connected drone systems for inspection, situational awareness, and DFR operations worldwide.” — Mr. Nguyen Van Chu, Vice Director, Gremsy
“It’s incredibly important for Nokia to collaborate with a partner like Gremsy. Their best- in-class payloads are a critical part of our strategy to build a future-proof, open payload ecosystem for Nokia Drone Networks. We’re especially excited about how these integrations will unlock massive potential in AI-powered analytics and open up entirely new market segments—from public safety and critical infrastructure to industrial automation and beyond.” — Thomas Eder, Head of Embedded Wireless, Nokia
