Bryan Gardner

The team at Ostrich Air and Firebot Labs has a strong record of overcoming both technological hurdles for robotic systems, and regulatory hurdles for drones. They're true engineers, who get to the real root of a problem - including the human element of any system. Whether that be operational interface, regulatory, or just networking to the end users. They're a fun crew, and this recording brings that forth. They've already become engaged in emergency response, and are currently raising money to develop the next level of the system they've developed with ample feedback from emergency responders in both fire and urban settings.
