Crow is a small unmanned aerial vehicle platform designed to be cost-effective, user-friendly, and extremely quick and easy to deploy. Featuring a weatherproof design that allows it to fly in rain and land on bodies of water, it can autonomously fly and land through user-specified waypoints and can carry small payloads such as water or medication to people in remote or otherwise inaccessible areas.
More advanced versions of the Crow platform are available for specialized applications:
HERMES-1 – equipped with flood mapping sonar for impact assessment and predictive modelling, and can also take water temperature readings
HERMES-2 – equipped with cellular repeater to provide enhanced coverage and connectivity in signal-limited or denied areas and during disaster response. Compatible with AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon and more
