The world's largest drone light installation was held in the center of the city of Chongqing. A total of 11,787 drones took to the air at the same time, creating amazing patterns, images and inscriptions against the night sky. This spectacle gathered more than 100,000 spectators who witnessed the setting of a new Guinness record.
Chongqing, known for its cultural and historical traditions, presented figures in the sky inspired by Chinese culture: from bright colors to detailed panoramas of the city and its symbols. However, few of those present could imagine the amount of preparation that lay behind this show. Every movement of the drones was carefully calculated by engineers to ensure the flawless execution of the composition. The team had carried out numerous rehearsals and technical refinements before the main event.
Beyond the spectacle, the event was an important showcase for Chongqing, which is rapidly developing as a drone development and manufacturing hub. The event demonstrated the advanced level of airspace management technology and coordination of large groups of drones.
