UVIFY Participates as Platinum Sponsor of IFAC 2026 World Congress in Busan

SEOUL, South Korea - Aug. 24, 2026 - PRLog -- UVIFY, a global leader in advanced drone systems, swarm robotics and autonomous technologies, is participating as a Platinum Sponsor of the 23rd World Congress of the International Federation of Automatic Control (IFAC 2026), taking place August 23–28 at BEXCO in Busan.

Held every three years, the IFAC World Congress brings together leading researchers, engineers and technology organizations to advance automatic control, robotics, artificial intelligence and autonomous systems.

For UVIFY, the partnership reflects a direct connection between advanced research and the real-world deployment of autonomous drones at scale.

"IFAC represents many of the technologies that make modern autonomous drones possible," said Robert Cheek, COO of UVIFY. "Control, perception, localization and intelligent coordination have to perform reliably in the real world, across hundreds or thousands of autonomous aircraft at a time. Supporting IFAC allows us to recognize the researchers and engineers advancing these fields while demonstrating what becomes possible when research moves into deployment at scale."

Cheek added, "Busan makes this Congress particularly meaningful for UVIFY. We have deep roots in Korea and work with drone operators, researchers, developers and partners around the world. Bringing the IFAC community together here connects Korea's engineering ecosystem with the future of drones and autonomous systems."

As part of the Congress program, UVIFY is also supporting a special 500-drone light show at the Busan Cinema Center, using IFO to visualize concepts inspired by control theory.

The demonstration highlights one of UVIFY's core areas of expertise: transforming coordinated autonomous flight from a research challenge into reliable technology deployed at commercial scale.

UVIFY is also advancing physical AI through UVIFY xEye, which provides perception, localization and spatial intelligence for drones and other robotic platforms, including systems operating in complex and GPS-denied environments.

"The next generation of drones will perceive their environment, collaborate with other autonomous systems and operate with increasing intelligence in the physical world," Cheek said. "The research represented at IFAC is fundamental to making that future possible."

Through its Platinum Sponsorship of IFAC 2026, UVIFY is supporting collaboration between academia and industry while strengthening its engagement with the global community advancing drones, robotics and autonomous systems.
