SEATTLE — BRINC has announced the launch of its latest innovation, the LiveOps platform. Accessible on any modern browser, the LiveOps software platform enhances coordination, efficiency and effectiveness in public safety drone operations.
LiveOps integrates with BRINC’s entire hardware ecosystem including LEMUR 2, BRINC Ball and future drones, providing not just pilots but emergency response teams — including crisis negotiation teams (CNT), special weapons and tactics (SWAT) units, patrol officers, search and rescue (SAR) teams, and command staff — with a unified platform for managing crisis negotiations and drone operations.
“LiveOps provides access to the powerful features of BRINC hardware products through one unified platform, significantly improving situational awareness, evidence management, and operational efficiency for entire public safety teams,” said Blake Resnick, Founder and CEO of BRINC. “This platform builds on our commitment to help first responders save lives with technology.”
Users can live stream video directly from BRINC devices to LiveOps through an integrated cellular connection, granting each team member autonomy to tailor their feed for informed decision-making. This independent view — separate from the pilot’s — ensures comprehensive coverage in dynamic situations. Additionally, operators can view, filter, and slice LiDAR data from active LEMUR 2 drones. These maps update as the drone scans with LiDAR sensors and can be converted from 3D maps to 2D floor plans with the Slicer tool.
LiveOps also facilitates two-way communications with external cell phones or BRINC devices, aiding de-escalation from anywhere in the world. Users can record calls and access live AI-powered transcriptions to track negotiations and brief personnel. Additionally, internal messaging and live drone video streams during calls provide vital information to crisis negotiators and ground personnel.
LiveOps serves as a definitive post-mission repository for flight logs and evidence storage. BRINC Vault allows teams to seamlessly access mission-critical data, with CJIS-compliant logs ensuring the integrity and admissibility of records as evidence. LiveOps incorporates a suite of tools to store and manage evidence efficiently — making data from BRINC devices readily available for prosecution teams.
“BRINC LiveOps will become a critical platform for public safety agencies nationwide as it uniquely integrates deep hardware features into a unified platform.” said Don Redmond, VP of Advanced Public Safety Projects at BRINC. “Agencies no longer need to tab between multiple platforms during missions, or be worried about limitations tied to specific hardware. LiveOps lets agencies focus on scaling their airborne operations instead of the technical nuances of a fractured technology stack.”
