He pops open the latches and takes an HDMI cable, just like you’d use with a home HD television, and plugs one end in the back of the controller being used to operate the drone. It’s called a Firestream, and it’s so tough you could actually drive over it. Enter: FirestreamĪs the PiC edges the M210C in for a closer view, another firefighter yanks a rugged, waterproof box from the closest firetruck. But the real technological magic is about to unfold. That’s useful, because the operator and those nearby can now see what the drone sees. With the InDro now hovering, the Pilot-in-Command (PiC) and those in the immediate vicinity of his tablet, which displays the view from the drone’s optical or thermal camera, now have an eye in the sky. It’s a feature that would also be very useful during forest fire operations, where water-bombers and helicopters fly at low altitudes. The purpose is to further reduce the already-low risk of an in-air collision. What they do know is that they must act quickly and strategically – while keeping their own people as safe as possible.Ī firefighter trained and authorized to operate a drone in this urban space quickly powers up an InDro Robotics M210C – an industrial DJI product that has been dramatically enhanced by InDro engineers to meet the very stringent criteria required by Transport Canada for this type of deployment in controlled airspace and near people.įor example, the InDro variant has a fully weather-sealed body – important for firefighters – and also carries an ADS-B receiver, which alerts the operator to the location of ADS-B-equipped manned aircraft. Though they’re on the phone with the onsite Deputy Chief, they’re limited by their inability to see what’s happening.Įven the onsite team is hampered by a lack of situational awareness firefighters can tell the roof of the building has also caught fire, but have no idea how extensive the damage is nor how quickly it’s spreading. Multiple fire trucks arrive, but the department’s Chief – along with its most senior HazMat specialist – are out of town attending a conference. It’s only a few blocks from a major subdivision, and the fire is quickly spreading. Imagine, for a moment, the following scenario: A major fire breaks out in a large, multi-storey industrial building housing hazardous materials.
