Key Highlights

  • Firefighting using tethered drones: By providing real-time information, tethered drones help assess the situation, identify hotspots, and coordinate response efforts more efficiently without endanger first responders.
  • Benefits in public safety operations: Tethered drones can access areas that are difficult or dangerous for first responders to reach, providing them with valuable insights without compromising their safety.
  • Features of the tethering system: Our guests emphasize the importance of data transfer, high-quality identification, zoom capabilities, as well as the compatibility of the tethering stations with multiple drones.
