During Thursday’s after-hours trading session, ZenaTech, Inc. (NASDAQ: ZENA) had yet another spike in its stock price, rising 11.40% to close at $4.69. This increase came after shares ended at $4.21 after an earlier 8.23% advance in normal trading.
The company’s revelation of a significant technological milestone—its first quantum computing prototype, intended to underpin cutting-edge AI drone solutions—fueled the market’s excitement.
Breakthrough in Quantum-AI Integration
ZenaTech has verified that it has created a fundamental framework for quantum computing that can handle and analyze massive datasets quickly. ZenaTech’s AI-powered drone technology has advanced significantly with this prototype.
The company tested the technology using sophisticated weather predicting algorithms as part of its “Clear Sky” effort, which allowed for real-time data processing from aerial drone sensors. This framework establishes a standard for agile, data-driven decision-making.
Increasing Use Cases from the Battlefield to the Farm Field
ZenaTech anticipates that their innovative technology will find extensive commercial and defense uses. By providing detailed, real-time environmental observations, the innovation has the potential to greatly improve precision farming in the agricultural sector.
In the energy sector, it promises predictive infrastructure inspections, potentially reducing maintenance costs and increasing safety. Defense uses are equally promising, ranging from improved battlefield decision-making to more precise threat detection, reconnaissance, and electronic warfare operations.
According to the company, it is “building a quantum-intelligent edge where data becomes decisions in an instant,” underlining its vision to redefine both civil and military drone capabilities.
Clear Sky Project: Toward Safer Weather Predictions
The company’s Clear Sky project remains a core research initiative under its quantum computing program. The system analyzes vital meteorological parameters including temperature, wind, humidity, barometric pressure, and precipitation—with high accuracy.
Internal trials using historical open-source data demonstrated a strong correlation with established weather platforms, validating the system’s reliability. Within the next several months, ZenaTech hopes to grow its R&D department from a six-person team to a 25-person unit.
The company is eyeing to expedite commercialization, reduce operating expenses, and establish itself as a global leader in quantum and next-generation artificial intelligence. By combining AI drones with quantum computing, ZenaTech is improving weather forecasting while also paving the way for safer skies and more intelligent infrastructures.
