Our Products

Skydio DFR

Product Overview

Skydio DFR provides local governments and public safety agencies with a complete, autonomous Drone as a First Responder ecosystem powered by the NDAA-compliant Skydio X10 aircraft and climate-controlled Skydio Docks. Operating as a central operating system, the DFR Command software automatically pulls geo-coordinates from 911 dispatch, gunshot detection, and ALPR networks to launch a rooftop-docked drone onto the scene in under 20 seconds. Through a deep enterprise alliance with Axon, the platform seamlessly overlays live body-worn camera locations on the pilot's map, streams real-time aerial feeds into local crime centers via Fusus, and directly offloads post-incident video into Axon Evidence. Additionally, the system provides advanced simulation algorithms to help city planners mathematically position drone docks based on historical emergency data to ensure a sub-two-minute response time across the municipality.

Axon Air Axon

Axon Air is an end-to-end drone software and ecosystem platform built to unify public safety UAS operations, scaling from standard "drone-in-a-trunk" patrol tools to complex Drone as a First Responder (DFR) programs. Rather than building proprietary aircraft, the platform unifies best-in-class hardware partnerships—including Skydio autonomous aircraft, Sky-Hero tactical indoor rovers, and Fotokite tethered systems—into a singular operating framework. The software feeds low-latency aerial video directly into real-time crime centers via Axon Fusus while automatically syncing recorded media, pilot profiles, and flight logs directly into CJIS-compliant Axon Evidence to maintain a seamless chain of custody. Additionally, Axon handles administrative friction for local governments by bundling the technology with specialized regulatory compliance consulting (RSAS) to secure complex FAA Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flight waivers.

DroneSense Drone as First Responder Versaterm

Versaterm DroneSense provides local governments and public safety agencies with a hardware-agnostic drone management software ecosystem designed to power tactical missions and Drone as a First Responder (DFR) operations. The cloud-native platform features DroneSense Remote, which allows dispatchers and teleoperators in real-time command centers to remotely pilot docked or hand-launched drones from a standard web browser using a keyboard, mouse, or video game controller. By integrating directly with Computer-Aided Dispatch (CAD) systems like Versaterm, the software can automatically route an "eye in the sky" drone to 911 calls for service in an average of 90 seconds, streaming low-latency tactical video and thermal imaging directly to ground units. Furthermore, the platform automates record-keeping by generating secure flight logs, tracking calls for service data, and supporting public-facing transparency dashboards to help municipalities maintain strong community trust.

Motorola Drone Detection and Response Motorola

Motorola Solutions Drone Detection and Response is an enterprise public safety software and integration platform built to help local governments and law enforcement agencies scale automated Drone as a First Responder (DFR) operations. Rather than acting as a standalone drone manufacturer, Motorola Solutions unifies aerial intelligence by powering teleoperation and live video streaming through its premier CAPE Drone Software. The platform integrates natively with a municipality's existing emergency workflows—including VESTA 9-1-1 call handling and PremierOne CAD systems—allowing a drone to be dispatched automatically to an incident or with a single click. Furthermore, through strategic hardware alliances with BRINC and airspace security networks like SkySafe, Motorola Solutions embeds live drone video feeds, automated license plate recognition (ALPR) hits, and airspace tracking directly into its centralized CommandCentral Aware dashboard. This gives real-time crime centers and en-route field units a single pane of glass to maintain total situational awareness and de-escalate scenes safely.
