■ About the DGP Imaging Awards
The DGP Imaging Awards is one of Japan’s most prestigious comprehensive awards, recognizing outstanding products each year across all aspects of digital imaging — from “capturing,” “viewing,” and “editing” to “preserving.”
A wide range of digital cameras, peripherals, and new imaging solutions are evaluated for innovation, performance, and creativity.
■ Award Citation
HOVERAir’s AI-powered flying camera series enables users to enjoy aerial shooting effortlessly, without complex controls.
The newly introduced HOVERAir AQUA expands this concept to the water, becoming the brand’s first waterproof model capable of takeoff and landing on water surfaces.
It delivers hands-free, pilot-free aerial footage even over water, and was highly praised for broadening the possibilities of creative expression.
