COLLEGE STATION, Texas (KBTX) – As fans and players return to Kyle Field during the coronavirus pandemic, the university is taking extra safety measures to ensure a safe yet enjoyable experience for everyone.
One way they’re doing it is by working with Lucid Drone Technologies, a drone company based out of North Carolina. The company’s CEO and co-founder, Andrew Ashur, said the university will be leasing one of their disinfecting drones to use in their facilities, including Kyle Field and Reed Arena.
