Skydio X10
PUBLIC SAFETY: DRONE AS FIRST RESPONDER (DFR)
Accelerate response by getting eyes on the scene ahead of your officers
Give first responders real-time scene information before they engage
Set your agency up for a future where your drones respond automatically to an incident, arriving before ground units, and live-stream the scene to both arriving officers and all additional stakeholders. Officers can assess the situation before engaging, keeping them and the community safer. A continuous feed enables better decision-making as things progress, leading to the best outcomes for your community.
This vision becomes reality with Skydio.
“X10 – the speed to get it up in the air, the distance it can go, the thermal and the lights – these are all crime-fighting tools.”
John Chell
NYPD Chief of Patrol
The path to fully autonomous DFR
Empower officers with Skydio drones in every vehicle
Get an aerial view every time you need it with autonomous drones that anyone can fly with a few hours of training.
Enable remote pilots to fly drones launched by ground units
Free the responding officers to focus on activity on the ground by passing control of the drone to a remote pilot in another location. 1
Launch & fly drones remotely to arrive before officers
Speed drones to incidents ahead of your officers by keeping them docked in strategic locations to respond quickly to any call. Live stream the scene to responding officers and additional stakeholders. 1
Automate call response with fully autonomous flight
Activate drones automatically when you get 911 calls. Integrate with 3rd- party applications (like ShotSpotter) for even quicker response. Faster intelligence informs better tactical decisions.
How Skydio X10 enables Patrol-Led Drone as First Responder (DFR)
See more, stay safer
Increase situational awareness
Get quick visibility into large areas and see more clearly in hard to reach environments. Our specially-designed FLIR Boson+ thermal sensors can help locate people who may be hidden from sight. Engage Skydio NightSense and easily navigate the drone in low or no light — indoors or out. You can also extend your coverage area with Skydio Connect 5G, anywhere there’s a cellular connection.
Start your journey by empowering your ground officers
Scene Documentation
Easily capture comprehensive data at any outdoor crash or crime scene, day or night, so responding personnel can process and clear scenes faster. Include Skydio intelligent drones in your forensic teams’ toolkit.
Patrol-Led DFR
Empower your ground officer to transfer control to central command once the drone is activated. While a remote pilot flies the drone, the responding officer can fully engage in the situation with enhanced intelligence. 1

Patrol Overwatch
Gain a tactical edge with real-time intelligence from a 360-degree aerial view on every call where and when you need it. 1 Identify subjects, vehicles or other objects of interest from a safe distance.
Share info faster, improve outcomes
Improve tactical decision making
Make real-time information accessible to stakeholders — from more senior officers in a command center to officers checking their computers in vehicles while en route. Your teams will be able to respond to dynamic situations with the most up-to-date intelligence — allocating personnel, directing response to minimize risk of use of force, and delivering more successful outcomes. 1
Automate call response to view the scene faster
Drones are a force multiplier, however you use them. That’s amplified with a fully automated DFR program. Imagine when you are able to integrate your 911 system and third party apps (that detect gunshots, for example). Our drones would be deployed without delay, fly directly to the site, and provide accurate locations for responding ground units and critical real-time information. Skydio will help you integrate the technology you need with our experts who know how to guide and support you on the journey to this advanced state of policing.
