The system

One station. One aircraft.

A sealed station that sits on your ground, and a thermal aircraft that lives inside it. Built on DJI hardware, then hardened by us for the load shedding, dust and heat we actually get here. Flown by licensed pilots.

Always on your ground. Always ready to fly.

The station

Engineered for the worst night of the year.

The station stays on your ground. It opens, launches the aircraft, takes it back, and charges it for the next trigger.

Resilience

When the grid goes down, the station does not.

  1. 01PowerThe station keeps running with no mains power. It keeps charging the aircraft, keeps watching, keeps reporting. Load shedding does not stop it. Where there is no grid at all, we run the station on solar or a generator.
  2. 02ConnectivityTwo paths, never one. A wired link that no jammer can reach. Mobile takes over the moment it drops, and satellite covers you where the fibre never arrived.
  3. 03OversightWe watch the power reserves around the clock and test them on a schedule. The control room sees an outage before you feel one.

An outage does not stop the watch. When your power goes, the station keeps flying and keeps reporting.

The aircraft

Nothing gets close unseen.

A Matrice 4TD, flown by licensed pilots. It takes off, flies the pattern and returns to charge, with a pilot watching the whole time.

No playbook for the sky.

Anyone who has cased your site knows where the cameras stop and when the guards change over. A patrol in the air is much harder to learn from the ground, and much harder to plan around.

A camera stays where you put it. An aircraft does not.

Onboard intelligence

Detection runs on the aircraft itself, not on a server in another country. The footage goes only to the people you have named.

A privacy feature first, a technology feature second.
