The emphasis is on having the drone in the patrol car, with the officer, ready to fly. Skydio makes it easy. It allows the officer to focus more on the mission.
Public Safety: Incident Overwatch
Gain an aerial
view of dynamic
situations
with overwatch on every call
Put eyes in the sky fast. Any call. Day or night.
Empower first responders with overwatch on every call. Equip every patrol car with a drone that can be in the air in just 40 seconds. Skydio drones navigate around obstacles with AI-driven autonomy, so the responding officer can confidently fly with just a few hours of training.
Or, the officer can simply power up the drone and hand off control to a remote pilot in a patrol-led drone as first responder (DFR) set-up—and return focus to the action on the ground. Add dock-based drones for even more comprehensive coverage where you need it.
More than 650 Public Safety agencies in every state across the U.S. rely on Skydio.
