D-Dalus is an exciting innovation in the area of unmanned air vehicles (UAV), of which the first prototype has been developed and successfully tested.
During the relatively brief development period, a completely new aircraft has been designed with flight characteristics that cannot be emulated by any known aircraft-type. For this purpose IAT 21 has developed, tested and internationally patented a special propulsion system, a virtually frictionless pivot bearing as well as a completely new aircraft configuration.

T-Dalus is an autonomous pallet-transportation-system which is able to lift supplies on pallets and distribute them according to their programmed route and destination. The use of IAT21′s unmanned pallet transporter (UPT) requires no specific infrastructure such as delivery stations etc.
T-Dalus is equipped with an autopilot-system and can therefore be controlled from a central computer or navigation system.
Integrated sensors permit sensitive lift and release of pallets, a recognition of obstacles and platform orientation in build-up areas.
W-Dalus is the underlying technology for small sized power plants in the field of alternative energy generation. It utilises wind, light and heat energy with high efficiency thereby enabling new ways of decentralised power generation. Using a special wing geometry the contact safety Cyclogiro-Rotor is can transform wind energy into electricity even under low wind force and also when the so-called “border-wind-speed” is exceeded.
Due to the compactness of the rotor configuration, W-Dalus can be easily integrated on existing roofs, where the roof area additionally acts as a wind speed amplifier.
Pooling wind energy with photovoltaic and solar-thermal energy generation in a combined installation provides an optimised energy yield.
