Meiya Pico UAV

Meiya Pico unmanned aerial vehicles are drones developed by Xiamen Meiya Pico Information Technologies Co., Ltd. (Meiya Pico, 厦门市美亚柏科信息股份有限公司), a company originally formed in 1999, with hardware business mainly in the area of information system / technology and security systems, and software business mainly in the area of supporting its hardware business. Recently, Meiya Pico has expanded its business into unmanned aerial vehicles by integrating commercial off-the-shelf subsystems, as well as integrating software it has developed on its own to these subsystems.

The company was sanctioned by the United States government on 7th October 2019 for alleged involvement in Xinjiang re-education camps.[1]
