Last month we rolled up our sleeves in the desert for the Blue UAS Refresh, hosted by the Defense Innovation Unit (DIU) at the Marine Corps Air Ground Combat Center. During this refresh challenge, we conducted flight demos and system validation to re-validate Skydio X10D for the United States Department of Defense Blue UAS cleared list. Here’s a view of our time at 29 Palms: https://lnkd.in/df_H2qeu

Public Safety Drone Instructor I Program Manager and Operator Specializing in Fire, Search and Rescue, and HAZMAT Response Tactics via UAS
I’m a firm believer that technology is becoming the bridge to safer operations at emergency scenes. I created this video to show the importance of high resolution #Thermal Imaging on a drone. Especially for #HazMat incidents. In the video you will see side by side views from the Skydio X10 of an above ground fuel container where the floating roof failed and sank into 4 Million gallons of gasoline during Hurricane Milton. The gasoline, exposed to the sun and air, began to vaporize. Looking at the side by side videos (both shot at the same time) the visible light camera is unable to see the vapors being produced however the thermal imaging camera on the drone can. The temperature differences between the vapor and the air is very minimal however the radiometric thermal camera on the drone can see even the slightest changes in temperature. This info is extremely valuable to the decision makers as we are able to see the height of the vapors and direction of travel all from a safety of our command post. #dronesforgood #uas #technology #thermalimagery
