As of April 1st 2020, new safety measures have been put in place to prevent the spread of SARS-CoV-2 virus. Large events and mass gatherings can contribute to the spread of COVID-19; in order to reduce the number of cases, it’s necessary to self-isolate and comply with social-distancing guidance.
March 26th, the representatives of the uniformed services and public institutions held a meeting with the Polish manufacturers of unmanned systems at the Ministry of Interior. The participants discussed the use of UAVs to help fight against the spread of the coronavirus.
As the leading research & development center in Poland, specializing in reconnaissance and observation systems based on UAV platforms, Flytronic has immediately responded to the Ministry’s appeal and put our unmanned systems at their disposal” – said JarosÅ‚aw ZajÄ…c, CEO of Flytronic, a company owned by WB Group.
Immediately, the first flights have been carried out by Flytronic’s operators in the area of Upper Silesia. The tests confirmed the effectiveness of WB Group’s unmanned systems in the mass surveillance where the spread of the virus is the severest.
The systems are ready to operate and can be used by various services for the protection of national safety and public order. In addition, WB Group provides the public services with the experienced personnel who can help the Police and other homeland security staff operate the system and control the compliance with quarantine.
