Agenda PSCR Overview & Mission Challenge Goal Timeline & Roadmap Summary Prizes Requirements & Objectives 4
PSCR Overview Primary federal laboratory conducting research, development, testing, and evaluation for public safety communications technologies
PSCR Mission PSCR is driven towards advancing public safety communications technologies by accelerating the adoption and implementation of the most critical communications capabilities to ensure the public safety community can more effectively carry out their mission to protect lives and property during day-to-day operations, large scale events, and emergencies.
How does PSCR achieve their mission? Internal Research External Prizes & Research Challenges
Challenge Goal Goal Context The Public safety community requires Advance UAS technologies by enhanced drone features and capabilities designing, building and flying drone to fly for 90+ minutes while carrying a prototypes to support first heavy payload to support the mission. responders. Scenario Objective A ‘lost person in a desert area’ To fly a UAS and its payload airborne for the longest time initiates a search & rescue operation; An aerial vehicle/UAS carrying a possible to support first responders’ communication communications device is deployed to 8 provide broadband network coverage. technology.
