TORONTO, March 9, 2023 — (PRNewswire) — RDARS Inc. (" RDARS" or the " Company") (CSE: RDRS) (OTCQB: RDRSF), an autonomous robotics and drone technology company developing advanced systems for alarm system augmentation and surveillance, is pleased to announce that after conducting significant research and testing of various UTM products, the Company has now formed a working relationship with Aloft Technologies, Inc. ("Aloft") ( www.aloft.ai) to integrate its advanced Unmanned Aircraft System Traffic Management (UTM) applications and features into the forthcoming Eagle Watch V1.5 RC1 release.
This update will provide the Company's Eagle Watch software platform (" Eagle Watch") with advanced airspace management and near instant response from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) for flight clearance. Autonomy is a major feature of the Eagle Watch, and having a tight integration with instant and responsive regulatory adherence is critical to remote operations. By having access to Aloft's UTM system, remote Eagle Watch operators can get instant airspace awareness, file and receive electronics permissions, and transmit Remote ID information as required by the FAA during the automated pre-flight and pre-landing procedures. Aloft's UTM platform and its seamless integration with Eagle Watch provides the remote operator with critical immediate situational awareness and enables compliance with the FAA's Remote ID requirements for Beyond Visual Line-of-Sight (BVLOS) operations, and Low Altitude Authorization and Notification Capability (LAANC), a collaboration between the FAA and private industry partners which supports unmanned Aerial Services (UAS) integration into the U.S. national airspace.
The Eagle Watch technology allows for operations to be conducted in a very confined airspace, on private property, at low altitude, and with strict limitations regarding the Company's Eagle Eye drone's flight patterns so that operators can conduct their operations in a manner that minimizes disruptions to the surveillance area. Integrating the Aloft UTM management platform provides operators with further instant situational awareness of any potential conflict as airspace changes in real-time.
"The Aloft integration further improves our goal of providing the highest quality of service with real time security drone response in compliance with regulatory concerns in a matter of seconds versus minutes and is critical for our real time security autonomous response system. We believe that this integration is a game changer for the RDARS drone system", said Jason Braverman, Chief Technology Officer.
"We are excited to have RDARS integrate our new developer tools with map tiles for visualization and APIs to provide programmatic access to Aloft's exclusive dataset and capabilities for maximum compliance and situational awareness," said Josh Ziering, Aloft's CTO and Co-Founder. "Enabling companies like RDARS to build Aloft UTM capabilities into their own products is how we envision the future of drone flight as operations scale and become more complex."
Formerly known as Kittyhawk, Aloft Technologies Inc. is the market leader in drone airspace systems & UTM technologies and powers more than two-thirds of all LAANC authorizations in the US. Our solutions make it easy to fly safely and operate compliantly at scale. Our dynamic airspace platform connects the largest drone network -- spanning recreational users, enterprise customers, regulators, and UTM partners across the globe.
RDARS possesses a disruptive technology that is advancing the security industry's approach to protecting commercial, industrial, and residential properties, by introducing protection with autonomous artificial intelligence systems that allows for real time response, situation awareness, verification, intervention, evidence recording, data capture, analysis, and immediate downstream transmissions to public safety agencies. RDARS has the ability, upon a property security breach, in real time to receive, analyze, and downstream the data and inform public safety agencies who the perpetrators potentially are before they even arrive at the property.
Founded in 2019, RDARS is an originator in its innovative equipment manufacturer of its flagship product, the Eagle Watch Platform comprising of Eagle Eye, a drone, Eagle Nest, a drone station, Eagle Rover, an indoor robotic system, and Eagle Watch Command & Control Software. The Company's autonomous robotic systems provide situational awareness in a cost effective and reliable manner. The Company's mission is to improve alarm response and situational awareness by obtaining required approvals from federal regulatory agencies for BVLOS operations. RDARS is currently developing its technology for private and enterprise customers in the United States and Canada, where these customers require a more reliable and advanced understanding of their property security.
