CENTUM and Event 38 Unmanned Systems have successfully completed the integration of the Lifeseeker Mini S10 system onto the E455 Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) platform.
Lifeseeker Mini is an airborne system developed by CENTUM, a company specializing in mobile phone-based airborne technology. The system aids in locating missing persons by geolocating their cell phones, even in areas that lack network coverage. Due to its optimized Size, Weight, and Power (SWaP), the system can be easily integrated into various drone platforms, supporting rapid deployment and improving mission capability in complex operational environments.
The E455 is the flagship fixed-wing Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL) drone from U.S. manufacturer Event 38 Unmanned Systems. Designed for Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance (ISR), high-precision mapping, and critical infrastructure inspections, the E455 is a heavy-lift, long-endurance platform. The drone features extended flight times, secure communications, and support for advanced payloads, making it well-suited for the demanding needs of public safety agencies globally. Event 38, based in Richfield, Ohio, has been manufacturing and delivering advanced unmanned aircraft that capture geo-tagged data for various missions and industries since 2011.
Javier Chamorro, President at CENTUM, commented, “This integration underlines the adaptability and mission-readiness of Lifeseeker Mini. It reinforces our commitment to making life-saving technology available through trusted, proven unmanned systems.”
Jeff Taylor, CEO/Founder at Event 38, added, “The E455 was built to support missions where reliability and capability can make all the difference. By integrating the Lifeseeker system, we’re giving responders the ability to locate missing persons faster and operate more effectively in the field. It’s an example of how we listen to our customers and deliver solutions that truly meet their needs.”
The integrated drone system is scheduled to enter operation soon with a customer in the United States, which will further expand the deployment of Lifeseeker on unmanned platforms across North America and worldwide.
