XMobots is a Brazilian company that designs and operates Remotely Piloted Aircraft Systems, known in Brazil as RPAS or VANTs. It was the first in the country to obtain ANAC authorization for experimental RPAS flights, signaling its long-standing involvement with regulatory-compliant unmanned aviation. Founded in 2007, the company emerged from a research and development project at CIETEC-USP, with a focus on advancing national unmanned aviation technology. In its early years, XMobots developed the Apoena 1000B, a 32-kilogram UAV that became the first to fly over the Amazon and was used to monitor a hydroelectric project along the Madeira River, quantifying deforestation over a 1,000 square kilometer area. In 2025, the company announced new unmanned systems, including the Nauru 100D UAS described as a tactical platform for military and surveillance operations. The company is based in São Carlos, São Paulo state, and positions itself as a mid-sized Brazilian specialist in RPAS development and manufacturing.
