Demand taking off for high-speed flight equipment

With the rising popularity of drone racing, there is a rapidly growing market for related equipment, such as first-person view or FPV goggles, which contestants need to wear to control their machines in high-speed flight.

A group of high-tech companies are betting big on the goggles, hoping to gain a market share amid fierce competition in the drone industry.

DJI, the world's largest commercial drone manufacturer by market share, has launched Goggles RE or Racing Edition, which are targeted at drone racers, aerial enthusiasts and remote control hobbyists.
