This solution from CCS and Fortress UAV is extremely adaptable and can be applied to numerous use-cases including but not limited to: communications for emergency response, event monitoring and inspections, and enterprise drone solutions.
The CCS MERC-UASC solution united with drone technology provides communication and data from the sky. Designed to allow a UAS (Unmanned Aerial System) operator to pilot their craft in an environmentally-controlled space while maintaining line of sight through transparent plexiglass walls, the trailer provides storage, maintenance and flight space for multiple drone models including a tethered drone system. Get live weather information and alerts (email and text) from a high-precision 5-in-1 wireless weather sensor with the ability to accurately measure temperature, humidity, wind speed, wind direction and rain. The unit is equipped with an on-board dual sim LTE router and a roof mounted auto-acquire satellite system that provides network connectivity for video streaming from anywhere in the world.
The MERC-UASC is small, light-weight, can be bumper pulled (single or double-axle trailer) or placed on the chassis of a 4-wheel drive vehicle for more off-road type missions – fully customizable for customer’s needs and missions.
“CCS has been providing mobile command center vehicles and trailers since 2007 with our units deployed in over 14 countries. This new Unmanned Aerial System Carrier is a natural extension of our product line allowing CCS and Fortress customers the ability to have a mobile climate-controlled base station to operate their UAS fleet even in the most remote areas while still having the network connectivity to communicate with other locations and stream these video feeds back live. It really is a game changer for all UAS operators!” stated Gary Collins, CEO of CCS.
