The version I showed you is for Hazmat and first responders. We have other versions (we don't do sensors, we integrate them) and ave a DoD UAS that is bigger and we can tether it, proving power, contol and sensor management over the tether.

The key is footprint and all dynamic components are in the duct. Very quiet and safe and, for Hazmat, the air outside the duct is quiescent, the air readings are true.

Yes.

The T-45 Hawk was the Army's version of our design, gas powered for EOD, designed by my partner.

Watchman, our UAS, is an extension of the Hller design, which we feature in our briefs.

Demo day:
