How does the New York City Fire Department (FDNY) use drones?

Hello Smart Firefighting Community!

Welcome to another episode of covering real world innovations via interviews with fire service and technology industry experts that empower YOU to develop your very own Smart Firefighting strategy!

Welcome to this 20-episode ⁠Texas Robotics Summit⁠ Mini Series! This 4 day event (March 4-7, 2024) was hosted at the ⁠Reveille Peak Ranch⁠ and by our friends at ⁠Granite Defense⁠, and showcased the use of robotics (air/water/ground) in public safety via keynote presentations, training scenario stations, roundtable conversations, and more.

In this episode:

• FDNY's innovative use of drones for water rescues
• Overcoming NYC's unique challenges with robotics
• Embracing future tech for better firefighting tactics

Learn from New York City Fire Department's Captain Michael Leo and Lieutenant Fred Carlson.

Our guests discuss using drones and robots in their operations at FDNY. They explain how drones are used for shark patrol and water rescues, as well as the challenges faced by FDNY in providing life-saving services in a densely populated city like New York.

They also highlight the various robots FDNY uses, such as ground robots and sonar-equipped boats, and the value they bring to firefighting and public safety. We end by talking about future technology adoption and the importance of collaboration between companies and FDNY.
