Since its successful Indiegogo campaign in 2023, which garnered over 5,000 backers and raised $1.8 million, HOVERAir X1 has experienced robust sales across nearly 40 countries. This popularity is attributed to its unique combination of fun, portability, and high performance.

Weighing just 125g, the HOVERAir X1 is exempt from registration requirements in most parts of the US and boasts a range of autonomous flight modes, superior audio clarity, and a safety-first cage-like design.

MQ Wang, Founder & CEO of Zero Zero, expresses excitement about introducing the new Gesture Control feature at CES. “This technology showcases our dedication to enhancing user experience and expanding creative possibilities,” said Wang. The HOVERAir X1’s rapid launch and landing capabilities, high-definition filming options, and foldable design underscore its status as a versatile and intuitive device.

The device’s advanced computer vision and robust tracking allow it to follow users at speeds over 15mph, and its Visual Inertial Odometry (VIO) technology ensures precise navigation.

“HOVERAir X1 is just the start of our journey to revolutionize personal photography and content creation,” Wang added. The device’s user-friendly operation, combined with its light frame and versatile flight modes, positions it as an essential tool for capturing and sharing life’s moments.
