RESPOND WITH A NEW POINT OF VIEW

MAKE LIFE-SAVING DECISIONS WITH ACTIONABLE INTELLIGENCE

In emergency situations, every second counts. Public safety agencies worldwide are incorporating drone technology into their standard operating procedures. With increased visibility and real-time actionable intelligence, drones provide unparalleled insight and situational awareness. Whether evaluating an active crime scene, fire event, or searching for missing persons, drones help teams make informed decisions and ultimately save lives.

Beyond drone hardware, purpose-built software is necessary to realize the full potential of this technology. Agencies have different goals, budgets, and team bandwidth, determining the right drone operation type, from tactical to Drone as First Responder (DFR). Each approach offers valuable benefits like real-time aerial intelligence, remote incident viewing, and faster response times.

By choosing the right drone operation and supporting software, agencies can improve response times and achieve success in critical situations.

1,500+ AGENCIES

Over 1,500 public safety agencies in the U.S. have acquired drones.

VIDEO LIVESTREAM AND FLIGHT CONTROL SOFTWARE

CAPE is a subscription-based software enabling livestreaming video, local and remote piloting, and evidence-grade video management. Integrating CAPE-equipped drones into daily workflows allows agencies to respond to and de-escalate active situations faster, make informed decisions on scene, and even clear calls when assistance isn't needed, saving valuable time and resources.

GAIN SITUATIONAL AWARENESS

Equip your team with real-time, high-quality video that provides aerial visibility and enables faster, more informed decision-making, leading to better outcomes. If necessary, remotely operate drones over a secure internet connection, with a second individual managing drone operations to capture intelligence needed to assist the response, allowing officers on the ground to focus on the developing situation.

EQUIP PROSECUTORS WITH QUALITY EVIDENCE

Capture high-quality images and videos for use as evidence in court. Content from a drone's SD card is automatically uploaded and stored in a secure cloud. This immediate upload eliminates the need to remove and inventory SD cards after each flight. Utilizing this advanced technology streamlines your evidence-collection process, enhances case accuracy, and achieves successful legal outcomes.

LEVERAGE DRONES AS FIRST RESPONDERS

By integrating drones into emergency response workflows, agencies can effectively leverage drones as force multipliers, providing an additional layer of situational awareness and intelligence gathering. This enhances officer safety, reduces response times, and improves overall emergency response effectiveness. In some cases, drones can even clear calls without dispatching officers, reducing risk to personnel and saving valuable resources.

THE RIGHT SUPPORT FOR ALL DRONE OPERATIONS

Whether starting with a first tactical drone or pursuing an advanced DFR program, CAPE offers the right tools and features to match your unique needs.

TACTICAL OPERATIONS

Drones are essential for tactical operations, often carried in a car trunk, saddlebag, or backpack for rapid deployment. In these situations, drones provide real-time, high-quality video streamed to responding officers' phones or watch commanders in the command center, offering complete aerial visibility for faster, more informed decisions.

"If we have an extended situation where the bird's eye view would give us the vantage point, our officers are able to launch a drone and get a similar view that a helicopter would provide." - Lieutenant Todd Withers, Beverly Hills Police Department

TELEPRESENCE OPERATIONS

Remote telepresence technology revolutionizes field-launched drone operations. By dividing drone responsibility between an on-scene pilot in command and a remote teleoperator, this advanced technology offers precise control of the drone's movements and camera angles while providing expert eyes on the scene. Remote telepresence is particularly useful for missions involving fleeing suspects and search and rescue operations, where the teleoperator can monitor the camera constantly, pan in different directions, and capture vital evidence.

REMOTE ASSISTANCE WHEN YOU NEED IT

• [?] LAUNCH ON SCENE: Your agency receives a call for emergency service.
• [➡️] HAND OFF CONTROL: Pilot hands off control to a remote teleoperator while keeping the drone within their line of sight.
• [?‍?] TELEOPERATOR IN CONTROL: Remote teleoperator controls the drone from anywhere with a keyboard, mouse, and CAPE Command desktop app while capturing crucial information.
• [▶️] LIVESTREAM VIDEO: Securely livestream HD drone video from the scene to the Android or iOS devices of responding teams and multiple agencies.

CAPE EXCLUSIVE: TELEPRESENCE LINE OF SIGHT

CAPE's Telepresence Line of Sight (TLOS) mode, an industry first invented by Motorola Solutions, integrates drones into daily operations right away while your agency develops a complete DFR program. With TLOS mode, the pilot in command can launch a drone from anywhere without a Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) certification and give the command center – located anywhere – control as long as the drone remains within the pilot's line of sight.

"Aerial intelligence provided by drone livestream gives us more latitude to really form a plan rather than react to an exigent circumstance that requires an immediate response." - Officer Peter Lashley, Santa Monica Police Department

DRONE AS FIRST RESPONDER OPERATIONS

Drone as First Responder (DFR) requires a prepositioned pilot who launches the drone as soon as an emergency call is received. The drone quickly takes flight, and the remote teleoperator takes control and guides it to the scene using a mouse, keyboard, and CAPE Command desktop app, often beating ground-based units to the incident location by minutes. The teleoperator can communicate critical information in real time, and responding officers can stream the drone's video from their smartphones.

By integrating DFR drone technology into emergency response workflows, command centers can identify and dispatch resources more effectively, even clearing calls without dispatching services.

LEVERAGE DRONES AS FIRST RESPONDERS

• [?] RECEIVE CALL FOR SERVICE: Your agency receives a call for emergency service.
• [?] LAUNCH PREPOSITIONED DRONE: Launch drones from strategic locations within your community and hand off control to a teleoperator.
• [?] REMOTELY OPERATE: Remote teleoperator controls the drone – beyond pilot's visual line of sight – from any location with a keyboard, mouse, and CAPE Command desktop app.
