"After the success of the UAS training scenarios, we look forward to receiving the operational COA for the entire state" explains F/Lt. Chris Bush, Commander Field Support and Aviation Section, Michigan State Police Special Operations Division. "Our emergency response and investigation teams are anticipating the benefits of using the Aeryon SkyRanger in the field."
Aeryon sUAS enable the immediate, safe, and reliable capture of high quality aerial imagery and data – faster, more accurately, and more cost-effectively than manned aircraft or traditional ground-based methods for collecting information and evidence.
"For the Michigan State Police agency to provide operational UAS capabilities for 83 counties is a significant deployment, especially with training operators who might not have previous experience flying unmanned systems," commented Aeryon Labs President & CEO, Dave Kroetsch. "We know that the Aeryon SkyRanger's easy-to-use interface will help speed up the roll out process and ensure that first responders can gain critical field data quickly and accurately."
The Aeryon SkyRanger will be showcased at the IACP 2014 Conference, Aeryon Labs Booth# 308, October 26-28, 2014 at the Orange County Convention Center in Orlando, Fla..
