Skyebrowse’s journey began with a motorcycle accident, an unexpected turn of events that led co-founder and CEO Bobby Ouyang to reevaluate the efficiency of emergency response efforts. Motivated by his firsthand experience, Ouyang decided to pivot his research into a practical application that could change public safety and emergency response.
SkyeBrowse enables drones to quickly show live scenes and create super-accurate 3D models of car crashes in just 5 minutes. The system is hosted in the cloud and uses strong encryption (AES-256) to keep everything secure and compliant. SkyeBrowse keeps things easy with a simple app design—just two taps, and anyone can make 3D models and get important forensic insights using their drone software.
Use Cases & Benefits
Skyebrowse’s TACBROWSE platform is a robust solution for incident response, mapping, and crisis management. Below are a few use cases, benefits, and real-life examples:
- Real-Time Incident Response and 3D Tracking:
SkyeBrowse helps responders react swiftly to active incidents while tracking personnel in real-time through 3D models. It facilitates pre-planning responses to critical locations, ensuring containment and leveraging technology to de-escalate situations effectively. In a law enforcement scenario, SkyeBrowse aids in tracking a suspect in a complex urban environment. Responders can use the 3D models for after-action debriefing, identifying best practices and training gaps. - Point Cloud Data from Video:
The platform generates point cloud data directly from video, allowing for accurate and detailed 3D models. In a traffic accident investigation, SkyeBrowse reduces the need for manual measurements, minimizing the time on the scene. This benefits responders by providing precise information for analysis and reporting. - Secure
SkyeBrowse ensures CJIS-compliant data handling and secure AWS Cloud processing, offering advantages over original, uncompressed video evidence retained for court or review. Investigators can seamlessly share models and measurements, maintaining a chain of custody log. - Reality Capture
With accurate reality capture, users can create 2D maps, 2D maps, and 3D models in minutes, not days. Emergency responders were able to quickly map out disaster-stricken areas, such as Hurricane Ian’s impact in Pine Island, FL, aiding FEMA in their disaster response efforts.
Additionally, SkyeBrowse supports a wide range of devices, including enterprise drones, consumer drones, action cameras, Android phones, and digital cameras, enhancing its accessibility and flexibility. Its universal device compatibility combined with lightning-fast reality capture supports use cases ranging from rapid 2D mapping to AI sketch drawings, interior mapping, battle damage assessment, and more. For construction site progress reports, a 5-minute drone flight can create a detailed model, take measurements of stockpiles, and showcase visual progress, as well as generate models from night-time scenes.
Stats you can’t miss
SkyeBrowse showcases efficiency in swiftly capturing and processing critical information. Below are 5 stats you can’t miss—
- Average drone flight time of just 90 seconds
- It has gained adoption by over 500 departments, highlighting its widespread recognition and integration into emergency response protocols.
- 2-minute average processing time.
- It has saved 100,000 traffic hours and reduced the potential risk of accidents, contributing substantially to public safety.
- Its courtroom credibility is proven by the fact that over 10 models have successfully undergone legal scrutiny without objections.
The ability to provide live scenes and create highly precise models in just minutes is not just a convenience—it’s a critical tool for decision-making in emergency situations. It matters because the right choice can mean the difference between effective action and potential delays that may impact outcomes especially when every moment is critical.
