Roark’s Drone’s as First Responder (DFR) services work in tandem with our WAMI and HSI solutions and offer specific services to first responders including law enforcement, fire and rescue, medics, military and security services.
Roark’s DFR has two main deployment options:
Automated
First-responders set a series of pre-determined triggers based on the real time imaging data collected by our WAMI and HSI services, supplemented by additional sensor data. These triggers can include:
Crime notification
Fire notification
Injury notification
Abnormal sounds
Gathering crowds
Traffic incidents
Our constantly trained “live action data” AI models can set specific trip-wire parameters for DFR deployment identifying “out of the ordinary” situations occurring in real time before reports are made to first responders.
For those with approved access to facial and number plate recognition data, other notification parameters can be set.
Once a trigger has been set off or a parameter breached a DFR UA is dispatched by the Roark DFR programme. This includes the deployment of incident specific UA’s carried in side pods by our WAMI and HSI UA’s. First responders can see real time video imagery of the trigger scene and, in some cases deploy first responder actions such as crowd dispersal via noise or flame retardant deployment.
Manual
The manual variant of our DFR programme requires a FR to monitor WAMI and HSI feeds for potential incidents (Still with built in triggers) and make a human decision request for DFR support where required. This again can be enhanced video surveillance, biometric scanning, identification, crowd dispersal and flame retardant deposits.
Military
For military use there is the option to equip DFR side-drones with weapons system for target neutralisation.
Platform
Our platform for DFR enables the incorporation of thousands of additional datasets including noise sensors, weather sensors, additional cameras, links to inbound FR calls, human and vehicle identification and tracking.
On Request
FR’s can request Roark’s DFR program as an “aerial asset on demand” service thus lowering costs by deploying only in times of heightened security or trigger points.
