Drones for Public Safety
Drones for search & rescue, firefighting, and law enforcement.
Vision Aerial drones are proudly made in America.
Using Drones for Public Safety Applications
Drones for public safety are increasingly valued for a variety of applications. In search and rescue, quickly finding people in rugged locations is key to saving lives. Firefighters use drones to develop situational awareness, identify hot spots, locate trapped people, and conduct forensic investigations. In law enforcement, drones are used for surveillance, crowd control, traffic management, accident reconstruction, and crime scene investigations.

Why Vision Aerial?
Rapid Response Saves Lives
When an urgent call comes into dispatch, the response time can make the difference between life and death. Unlike helicopters, drones can be deployed within minutes from a nearby location. Drones also have the ability to scan wide areas with cameras and sensors. They can also cover more area than a ground team can and in a fraction of the time. Once the subject is found, the drone can transmit a precise GPS location. Then the subject can be reached more quickly by first responders.
Benefit from Enhanced Data in Real-Time
In search and rescue missions, thermal and infrared cameras can see what the human eye can not. Infrared cameras can spot a heat source from a human footprint from as high up as 10,000 feet. A search team on the ground can watch live feeds from video and thermal sensors. Once the missing person is found, a camera operator can zoom in with a high-resolution lens to assess their condition. This helps the rescue team determine what kind of response support is needed.
Reach Inaccessible Areas
Helicopters and airplanes aren’t always practical in urban settings. Drones can fly between buildings or hover in a spot on command. In wilderness settings, drones can reach areas not easily reachable on foot. They also have the advantage of an aerial view.
Less Expensive Than Traditional Methods
An airplane or helicopter rental can cost thousands of dollars per hour. There is also the cost of a pilot, support crew, and fuel. Small drones are considerably less expensive to deploy.
