T2 Airport Airblower UAV Demonstration at PolyU

On 18 December 2025, the team conducted a demonstration of airblower UAV technology with the Civil Aviation Department (CAD) at The Hong Kong Polytechnic University (PolyU). The demonstration presented the capabilities of the airblower UAV system to CAD representatives, highlighting its potential applications in urban environments and its compliance with aviation safety standards in enclosed areas.

Advancing UAV applications in Hong Kong

The UAV is a product of the collaboration with Gammon Construction Ltd. and represents an important step towards the field application of the airblower UAV system at the newly built T2 airport. The demonstration provided a practical example of how the technology can be used in real-world scenarios and helped build regulatory understanding and acceptance of specialised UAV applications in Hong Kong. It also provided valuable insights into the operational parameters and safety considerations of airblower UAV technology.

The team remains committed to working closely with aviation authorities so that innovative UAV solutions can be safely integrated into Hong Kong’s airspace, contributing to the development of the city’s low-altitude economy.
