BRINC\u2019s integrated DFR\nsolution marks a major advancement in drone technology, featuring the cutting-edge\nResponder drone and Responder Station charging nest. The drones are engineered\nto reach 911 calls in under 70 seconds, providing critical situational\nawareness to first responders before they arrive on scene. They are also\ncapable of delivering life-saving medical supplies, reducing manned response\ntimes, and addressing low-priority calls without the need to dispatch\npersonnel. As municipalities experience police staffing shortages, BRINC&#8217;s DFR\nsolution can resolve approximately 25% of calls for service without dispatching\nofficers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe launch of BRINC DFR marks a pivotal moment in the\nevolution of emergency response. Our DFR initiative is set to revolutionize the\npublic safety landscape by empowering first responders with capabilities that\nsignificantly improve emergency response times and outcomes.\u201d said Blake\nResnick, BRINC Founder &amp; CEO.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Responder: Reimagine Emergency Response<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BRINC\u2019s American-made Responder drone can support first\nresponders as part of an agency\u2019s automated DFR system, a patrol-led DFR\napproach, or as a manually deployed drone. The Responder can also deliver a\nwide selection of life-saving payloads, such as EpiPens, automated external\ndefibrillators (AEDs), personal floatation devices (PFDs), and naloxone\n(Narcan). Its two-way communication capability facilitates instruction and can\nenhance de-escalation during tense confrontations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Responder is equipped with a remarkable camera payload,\nproviding a detailed view to public safety personnel once it arrives on-scene.\nIt features a Full HD, 40x zoom visual camera array, and a 640px thermal\nsensor. This industry-leading thermal imager can aid firefighters in\nidentifying hotspots during structure fires and help search and rescue teams\nlocate missing or injured individuals. Responder also has an emergency response\nvehicle livery, custom agency markings, red and blue lights, and an integrated siren\nto make it identifiable as a public safety asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Responder Station: Deploy Drones in Under 5 Seconds<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Complementing the Responder is the Responder Station, a\nrobotic charging nest designed to be placed throughout communities for fast\nresponse times. Responder Station ensures that Responders remain operational,\nprotected from weather, and ready to spring into action at a moment&#8217;s notice.\nTogether, the Responder and Responder Station enable sub-5-second drone\ndeployment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Responder drones return to the nearest available Station\nafter the completion of each mission to charge from 0 to 100% in just 40\nminutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BRINC LiveOps: Unified Drone Operations Software<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This entire solution is driven by BRINC LiveOps, a drone\noperations software platform available on all modern web browsers. This allows\nfor easy access on mobile devices, tablets, mobile data computers, and at\nreal-time crime centers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>LiveOps provides:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Teleoperations: Fly Responder drones from\nanywhere in the world on a browser tab with your arrow keys.<\/li><li>Manage District-Wide Deployments: View calls for\nservice and available drones, select a station to launch from, and quickly\ndeploy drones to emergencies.<\/li><li>2-Way Communications: Provide life-saving\ninstruction and de-escalate critical situations.<\/li><li>Augmented Reality Overlays: Contextualize live\nfeeds by overlaying map data on drone video feeds.<\/li><li>Integrated Airspace Awareness: View local\nweather information, ADS-B data, ground-based radar detections, FAA map tiles,\nand more to deconflict airspace.<\/li><li>Transparency Portal: Provide communities with\nflight logs and a program dashboard to promote transparency.<\/li><li>Integrate with Existing Public Safety\nInfrastructure: Connect with existing computer-aided dispatch (CAD), digital\nevidence management systems (DEMS), 911 call systems, and more.<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Increasing Need for Emergency Response Drones Drives Industry Growth<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Earlier public safety drone systems have been disjointed,\npiecing together generic hardware and software from various companies,\nresulting in suboptimal systems. This new all-in-one solution from BRINC makes\nDFR operations more effective and easily accessible to every agency in America.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&#8220;Our fully integrated approach with Responder,\nResponder Station, and BRINC LiveOps sets us apart in the industry, enabling\nseamless coordination and rapid response in times of crisis.\u201d said Don Redmond,\nBRINC Vice President of Advanced Public Safety Projects, \u201cWe anticipate that\nour innovative solution will not only enhance operational efficiency, but save\nlives.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>BRINC has a strong history of serving public safety agencies\nacross the United States. More than 500 agencies already use BRINC devices such\nas the LEMUR 2 or BRINC Ball, and over 150 agencies are moving towards\ncity-wide 911 response drone deployments with BRINC, with four signed to begin BRINC\nDFR programs by the end of this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Responder, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/responder\">https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/responder<\/a> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on Responder Station, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/responder-station\">https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/responder-station<\/a>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For more information on LiveOps, please visit <a href=\"https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/liveops\">https:\/\/brincdrones.com\/liveops<\/a> <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>BRINC has unveiled the first ever purpose-built hardware designed for Drone as First Responder (DFR) operations.
