About Guardian
Guardian is BRINC's drone-as-first-responder aircraft for public-safety agencies. It combines day and thermal imaging, zoom, lighting, communications and modular payload support with autonomy features intended for rapid remote response and persistent situational awareness.
The aircraft is designed to work with Guardian Station and BRINC's operating software as a connected response system. Flight range, endurance, payload use and beyond-visual-line-of-sight operation remain subject to the deployed configuration, communications environment and aviation authorisation.
