Partnership Broadened to Encompass Joint Sales and Marketing

Palladyne AI Congratulates Red Cat on U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance Program of Record Award

Palladyne AI Corp. (NASDAQ: PDYN and PDYNW) (“Palladyne AI”), a developer of artificial intelligence software for robotic platforms in the commercial and defense sectors, today announced an expanded partnership with Red Cat Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCAT) (“Red Cat”) and its Teal Drones subsidiary (“Teal”), a drone technology company integrating robotic hardware and software for military, government, and commercial operations. The broadened relationship includes joint go-to-market activities to be coordinated between the companies.

In early October, Palladyne AI and Red Cat announced that they had partnered to embed Palladyne AI’s artificial intelligence software into Teal drones, including those already in the field, to enable autonomous operation and expand drone system capabilities to facilitate the creation of a network of collaborating drones and sensors that self-orchestrate to provide superior intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance capabilities. Palladyne AI and Teal’s expanded partnership will include joint sales and marketing for Palladyne AI’s artificial intelligence software on Teal drones. Palladyne Pilot is expected to be available on all Teal drones and will be included in new drones shipped to customers who desire the features and functionality provided by the platform.

Red Cat recently announced it was selected as the winner of the U.S. Army’s Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) Program of Record after a rigorous test and evaluation process for its Teal next generation sUAS, designated as the Black Widow and WEB. The testing and evaluation were completed by the Army Project Management Office for Uncrewed Aircraft Systems, Army Maneuver Battle Lab, and Army Test and Evaluation Command, and the award was based on soldier feedback, technical performance, volume manufacturability, and system cost. The production contract anticipates deliveries beginning in 2025. Palladyne Pilot is expected to be available for all sUAS systems delivered to the Army.

“We are extremely proud to be working with Teal on integrating our Palladyne Pilot artificial intelligence software into Teal’s drones and look forward to this expanded relationship to help deliver a best-in-class experience for their defense, public safety, and commercial customers,” said Ben Wolff, CEO, Palladyne AI. “Furthermore, we congratulate them on their selection as the winner of the U.S. Army’s SRR Program of Record. This contract is extremely well-deserved as Teal sUAS systems exhibit superior capabilities across the board and particularly for complex military operations.”

About Palladyne AI Corp.

Palladyne AI Corp. (NASDAQ: PDYN) has developed an advanced artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) software platform poised to revolutionize the capabilities of robots, enabling them to observe, learn, reason, and act in a manner akin to human intelligence. Our AI and ML software platform empowers robots to perceive variations or changes in the real-world environment, enabling them to autonomously maneuver and manipulate objects accurately in response.

The Palladyne AI software solution operates on the edge and dramatically reduces the significant effort required to program and deploy robots enabling industrial robots and collaborative robots (cobots) to quickly achieve autonomous capabilities even in dynamic and or complex environments. Designed to achieve precise results with minimal training time, limited data sets, and lower power requirements, compared to current solutions, Palladyne AI believes its software has wide application, including in industries such as automotive, aviation, construction, defense, general manufacturing, infrastructure inspection, logistics and warehousing. Its applicability extends beyond traditional robotics to include Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs), Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs), and Remotely Operated Vehicles (ROVs). Palladyne AI’s approach is expected to elevate the return on investment associated with a diverse range of machines that are fixed, fly, float, or roll.

By enabling autonomy, reducing programming complexity, and enhancing efficiency, we are paving the way for a future where machines can excel in tasks that were once considered beyond their reach.
