The Fotokite Sigma allows any firefighter to quickly gain overview perspectives, during critical situations, at the push of a button. Without any active piloting necessary, the Kite is a specialized firefighting aerial camera. It is robust, deployable in seconds, and fully autonomous, in order to provide a consistent aerial point of view, during emergency situations.

The system can be seamlessly integrated into any fire department, with or without an established drone program. It serves as a complement to existing drone programs, without adding any complexity. This daily-use front line tool features IP55 classification and 24h+ flight autonomy, in order to allow the Fotokite Sigma to be used safely in all-weather conditions
