BRINC Delivers First LEMUR 2 Drones to Emergency Responders
:
Today, BRINC proclaims the primary deliveries of the LEMUR 2 flagship model to customers. The LEMUR 2 is designed, manufactured, and supported within the U.S. from BRINC’s Seattle facility.
Blake Resnick, founder and CEO of BRINC, commented on the news: “With these deliveries we’re one step closer to creating our vision of a safer world a reality, all made possible by the labor of everyone here at BRINC. I’m so pleased with what our team has achieved, and equally proud to be serving the primary responder community. Technology that keeps emergency responders out of harms way and saves lives is precisely what we’re constructing, and we’re just getting began.”
Improved Product, Enhanced Performance
BRINC’s first drone, the LEMUR, was developed entirely based upon the true life experience of public safety officers in the sector. The LEMUR series is designed to enter an area before the officers: searching an area, finding suspects, establishing communications, and providing critical eyes and ears. The LEMUR 2 offers a number of upgrades and capabilities, all of which fulfill real life needs for law enforcement. The mixture of features is exclusive, offering truly impactful capabilities: from the power to flip itself over and take flight again when hit (the LEMUR’s nearly indestructible form is impressive in demonstration) to nighttime vision, thermal sensors, and the engineering that allows the drone to operate in GPS-denied, dark environments.
A number of the LEMUR 2’s recent and upgraded features:
- GPS Denied/No Light Position Hold
- LiDAR and Tracking Camera Array
- Night Vision and FLIR Thermal Sensors
- Smart Battery Power Management
- FAA-compliant Distant ID Module
- Glass Breaker for Window Breaching
- Obstacle Awareness
- Two-way Audio Communications
- High-performance Antenna Array
- USB-C Charging Ecosystem
- NDAA Compliance
- Improved Self Righting Performance
“Our customers’ lives are on the road, and as such we’re consistently trying to make improvements and advancements to our drones” continued Resnick. “For BRINC, this implies packing every ounce of cutting-edge technology into our drones so emergency responders have the tools they should make certain everyone gets home safely.”
The LEMUR 2 unlocks several de-escalation tactics for law enforcement officers because of its impressive feature set. The drone’s LiDAR array, which powers its autonomy engine, also provides real-time floor plans of its environment, immediately available to any officer linked into the BRINC LiveOps system. Officers also can use the drone’s on-board communications capability to de-escalate highly dangerous situations, opening communications pathways and enabling a peaceful resolution for all parties involved.
BRINC’s life saving drones have also been utilized in disaster response and search and rescue missions world wide: from the Surfside Condo collapse to the earthquakes in Turkey. LEMUR’s unique capabilities make it a perfect tool for first responders working in difficult environments.
The LEMUR 2 is proudly made within the US: this model is the primary from BRINC’s recent Seattle-based headquarters and production factory. The 20,000 square foot facility “hosts specialized tooling, 3D printers, CNC machines, automated battery welders and more to take care of complete supply chain ownership and vertical integration,” says the corporate announcement. “The LEMUR 2 is National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) compliant and approved by the US government to be used by federal agencies and contractors. BRINC is the one public safety drone company to fabricate all of its products in, and source all its parts from, the USA and allied nations.”
