SafeScout™ – Emergency Response Drone 

Transforming Emergency Response Safety

SafeScoutTM emergency response drone and mining operator

SafeSight’s Emergency Response Drone (ERD) is the next evolution of our SafeScout™ utility scout drone and is specifically designed to respond to the challenges of emergency response in a potentially hazardous environments.

ERD™ drones are part of SafeSight’s Mine Rescue product line, with all the surveillance and flight technology needed to support complex disaster response efforts in urban settings. These small drones are configured for urban and underground airspace, capable of GPS-based, semi-autonomous flight, as well as GPS-denied indoor flight. Air mobility and obstacle avoidance are supported by stereo cameras to optimize ease of use.

SafeSight’s advanced technology for surveillance, including powerful LED lighting and advanced robotic camera configurations can easily be operated by drone operators to assess and inspect any situation from a safe distance. Ideal for helping local authorities improve their situational awareness in both rural communities and urban areas.

ERD, Benefits and Impacts

ACCESS, INSPECT, SEARCH & RESCUE

Safesight’s ERD™, a specialized compact drone designed for use by surface and underground responders during emergencies or when situations create unknown dangers. The ERD has the following operational impact:

● Lower cost and smaller size to ensure availability and great accessibility
● Access to tight spaces with obstructions to operate in openings current drone solutions cannot access safely.
● Creates a safer environment for responders to quickly determine – Rescue (in which case every second counts) or Recovery (in which case time is not a factor).
● Reduces risk to higher cost equipment to inspect a heading, identifying access to and potential areas of interest.

HD Video and Next Level Thermal

ERD™ drones were developed by SafeSight in response to the need to reach small spaces that conventional LiDAR- equipment cannot access.

Uniquely configured lighting capabilities provide the ability to capture high-resolution video and realtime switching to thermal imaging to support more effective search and rescue.

Pilot Assist for Urban Air Mobility

To support pilot control as well as ease of operation, ERD™ has basic hover and obstacle avoidance features. These features support:

  • Pilot-assisted access for drone use in tight spaces
  • Navigation around obstacles to capture situational conditions
  • Air quality sensors
  • Video content that will allow first responders (law enforcement & firefighters), planners, and engineers to assess the scene at a safe distance

Air Quality & Visual Assessments

Equipped with the power to carry the latest in air quality sensors, ERD™ can fly into targeted areas using its “hover” and “avoid” features, navigate through tight spaces to capture peak readings of air quality while at the same time returning real time video of the site environment.

Emergency Response - Rescue or Recovery

ERD™ – Emergency Response Drone is small, light and can be deploy quickly to execute search and rescue. Making it possible to rapidly determine “Rescue or Recovery” without ever putting rescue personnel at risk.

  • Access confined opening (1.5m)
  • Inspect rail and equipment – close up on rail and back
  • Find trapped worker and their condition
  • Capture air quality peak readings
  • Return to the LZ to plan rescue

Investigate and Inspect

The ERD’s size and quick deployment along with its relative ease of use, access to tight space
and ability to fly in close proximity to targets creates opportunities to apply to:

Support unexpected failures:

  • Equipment inspection
  • Structures inspection
  • Vessel inspection
  • Conveyor inspection
