VIDEAR delivers integrated hardware-software solutions that transform operational efficiency, safety, and decision-making across critical sectors:
Captive Kite Thermal Imaging System
Our tethered Kite-Cam platform provides RNLI and coastal rescue teams with enhanced "height of eye" visibility in challenging conditions. Deploying FLIR thermal cameras up to 100m above vessels, the system delivers real-time AR-guided target location to crew helmets, reducing time-to-locate casualties by 20-30% while minimizing crew exposure to hazardous searching patterns.
Key Benefits:
Hands-free AR navigation for coxswains and crew
Extended detection range (2+ miles for thermal signatures)
Rapid deployment/retrieval system (3-5m suspension lines)
Triple-redundancy safety mechanisms
CAA-compliant captive kite classification (ANO 2016 Article 92)
Automated 3D Ecological Mapping
VIDEAR's Digital Twin platform creates high-fidelity environmental models using drone-captured data, enabling precise tracking of habitat changes, coastal erosion, water quality, and invasive species (INNS). Our collaborative Eco App allows commercial operators and volunteer networks to contribute real-time incident reporting, building comprehensive datasets for conservation partners.
Key Benefits:
Centimeter-level precision mapping
Longitudinal change detection and analysis
Collaborative data collection (commercial + volunteer)
Real-time visualization for stakeholder engagement
Integration with Wildlife Trusts, Environment Agency, water utilities
AR-Verified Delivery Platform (Project ARIES)
Eliminate "Order Marked Delivered, Not Received" (OMDNR) disputes with immutable AR location markers and Digital Twin records. Our ePOD system creates transparent, verifiable proof-of-delivery shared between drivers, customers, and depots.
Key Benefits:
40-60% reduction in OMDNR disputes
Reduced refund and operational costs
Enhanced customer trust and satisfaction
Tamper-proof delivery verification
All VIDEAR solutions share core platform advantages:
Regulatory compliance - CAA-aligned drone operations, ANO 2016 captive kite classifications
Cost-effective automation - Reduce manual survey and inspection costs
Actionable insights - Transform raw data into intuitive 3D visualizations
Risk reduction - Minimize crew exposure in hazardous environments
Real-time collaboration - Multi-stakeholder access to shared Digital Twin environments
VIDEAR aligns with digital transformation initiatives like RNLI's connectivity roadmap, delivering measurable improvements in operational speed, safety outcomes, and environmental protection.
