Allumee and the show drones
THE show drones are a unique category that combines advanced technology and artistic creativity to create luminous aerial displays. These drones are equipped with LEDs and meticulously programmed to create images and animations in the sky for a limited time.
These drones use sophisticated control systems and precise synchronization to ensure smooth and coordinated performance. Thus, their programming allows each drone to be controlled individually while synchronizing the entire group; ranging from 100 until 1000 drones for our case.
The major advantage of show drones is that they offer above all a eco-responsible alternative to traditional fireworks. Therefore, these drones are used during large and small events such as celebrations with prestigious brands, national holidays or for local communities or even weddings for individuals (visit our website dedicated to weddings: www.mariagedroneshow.comThe idea is primarily to provide impressive visual entertainment without the risks associated with explosives.
