In a bid to enhance the capabilities of first responders, Robotican, a company based in southern Israel, is set to deploy its 'Goshawk' drones to police, ambulance, and fire services across the country. Originally designed as a drone interceptor, the Goshawk boasts a remarkable launch time of under 10 seconds and can reach speeds of up to 110 kph. Being unaffected by ground obstacles, these drones will arrive at emergency scenes swiftly, providing invaluable information through their high-quality cameras to aid ground teams in assessing situations beforehand and taking immediate action upon arrival.
The integration of such a system, particularly if it operates autonomously, requires the drones to seamlessly navigate civil airspace. This is where High Lander's Universal UTM (Unmanned Traffic Management) system comes into play. The UTM will enable the Goshawks to obtain flight plan approvals, receive real-time flight monitoring, and benefit from in-flight conflict warnings. Additionally, the system will prioritize first response drones, granting them precedence over other drones in the airspace, similar to how first-response road units are given the right of way. The successful completion of simulated flights marks a significant milestone in the initial phase of integrating the Goshawks with the Universal UTM.
By combining the Goshawk drones with the Universal UTM, Robotican aims to establish a nationwide network of first response drones that seamlessly operate alongside other aircraft in civilian airspace. This integration will not only enhance the effectiveness and preparedness of first responders but also contribute to deterrence at crime scenes, prevent property damage, and ensure the safety of officers. The innovative technology offered by Robotican and High Lander holds great promise for revolutionizing the field of emergency response in Israel.
