BRINC Drones has partnered with robotics developer ICOR Technology to develop an integrated solution that combines advanced aerial and ground robotics for first responders and public safety operators. The two companies will create specialized mounting brackets that will allow BRINC’s LEMUR S UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle) to be seamlessly deployed from ICOR’s CALIBER line of UGVs (unmanned ground vehicles).
ICOR is a developer of tactical and explosive ordnance disposal (EOD) robotics that have been deployed around the world for decades. BRINC Drones develops highly reliable aerial solutions that keep people safe in dangerous situations. The two companies are striving towards a common goal of saving lives and creating new solutions that will help first responders be more efficient and safe during high-stakes operations. ICOR and BRINC will be conducting joint demonstrations and actively seeking feedback from the community on how the integration can improve the experience of end users.
Blake Resnick, Founder and CEO of BRINC Drones, said: “BRINC could not be more excited to partner with a company like ICOR. They have paved the way for robotics in the first responder community for decades and we are honored to be able to work alongside such a well known and respected organization. Together, I have no doubt that we will continue to make the jobs of first responders safer and easier.”
Alexander (Sasha) Grant, President of ICOR, commented: “ICOR is thrilled to be working with a new, innovative technology start-up like BRINC. Their purpose-built indoor tactical drones are a perfect fit for our ground based robots. Together, the two technologies will continue to advance our missions of saving lives. We are looking forward to a long and successful partnership with BRINC.”
