Emergency Response - Rescue or Recovery
The ERD is small, light and can be deployed quickly as a search and rescue. Being able to fit through areas as tight as 40 cm x 40 cm and a range of 200m+ makes it possible to rapidly determine “Rescue or Recovery” without ever putting rescue personnel at risk.
Real Time Visual Assessment
Equipped with both a Thermal and HD FPV Camera, the ERD can fly into targeted ares and give responders HD and Thermal video of the site environment.

Altitude Hold for Underground Mobility
To support pilot control as well as ease of operation, the ERD is equipped with Altitude Hold. This feature allow for pilots to be able to focus on direction while the drone maintains a consitant altitude to help pilots navigate through tight spaces.
Fire & Smoke Response
With ERD Models equipped with thermal imaging, the ERD is able to fly around a fire to provide a thermal image assessment of the backside of the fire. These features allow responders to assess an emergency with detailed information, while at a safe distance.Use Unmanned Aircraft Systems for a Safer & Faster ResponseEmergency Response, Support and Rescue
