Watchtower is Paladin’s DFR software where control of Knighthawk, view of the live video feed, and data management take place. The ability to control the drones location with the click of a button on a computer or smartphone from anywhere in the country makes this system an easy to use force multiplier that can relay critical information minutes before humans arrive on scene.

Whether being operated out of a real-time crime center, dispatch center, or in a UAS unit, emergency response can be chaotic with multiple sources of information coming in all at once. Watchtower has been designed to be as simple as possible and works to lower the risk of human error through autonomous flight making it both very safe and extremely effective at gathering and communicating information.

In a world in where having information is critical to success, it’s dangerous that first responders have so little. Paladin’s LTE drone with autonomous software controls and data management makes DFR both effective and straightforward to implement.
