Teledyne FLIR announced a limited-time promotion for SIRAS, a professional drone that includes a quick-connect dual radiometric thermal and visible camera payload. First responders, including police, fire, and search and rescue agencies, can now purchase one unit per agency at a significantly marked-down price of $6,995, a discount of more than 28 percent, through the end of the 2024 calendar year.
SIRAS drones are engineered for data security, performance, and affordability, making them the ideal choice for public safety, firefighting, and search and rescue missions, according to the announcement. At a significant discount, agencies can replace or add to their existing drone fleet an offering that is purpose-built for safety and security.
“First responders are investing in SIRAS. In recognition of their mission and budget restraints, we want to support the community with this promotion that runs through National First Responders Day and beyond,” said Mike Walters, vice president, product management, Teledyne FLIR. “Especially for those organizations seeking an alternative to drones originating from countries of concern. Teledyne FLIR is proud to offer those on the frontlines a drone that makes their missions swift, safe, and secure.”
SIRAS is an IP-54-rated aircraft with a flight time of more than 30 minutes, radar-based front collision avoidance, and backpack portability. With no geo-fencing restrictions, first responder UAV pilots are in control to determine when and where to fly the SIRAS as the mission demands. The Vue TV128 payload features a 16MP visible camera with 128x zoom to pinpoint details. The integrated 640x512 pixel radiometric Boson provides best-in-class thermal imagery, 5x digital zoom, and temperature measurement of every pixel in the scene.
Designed with cyber security in mind, SIRAS stores imagery and video directly onto an onboard SD card without cloud connectivity features. Additionally, drone pilots are not required to set up an online profile, simplifying operations and minimizing the risk of unintended online data exposure. The aircraft is manufactured in Taiwan and the payload is manufactured at the Teledyne FLIR facility in Goleta, Calif.
