Autonomous Drone Integration in Genetec Security Center


    DRONE DISPATCHER is a smart gateway between professional drone platforms and Genetec Security Center. This universal plugin enables centralized orchestration of aerial operations within a unified security environment, supporting multiple drone technology providers. With this integration, operators gain full visibility into their aerial assets: live video streams, GPS coordinates, telemetry, system status, and mission history. DRONE DISPATCHER consolidates this information to enhance situational awareness and operational responsiveness across the entire security infrastructure.

    Comprehensive fleet control: Drones, onboard cameras, and docking stations are fully recognized within Genetec Security Center as native entities. The plugin ensures real-time access to video feeds, telemetry data, and precise flight tracking.

    Smart missions and map-based navigation: DRONE DISPATCHER enables automated or manual drone dispatch to predefined locations, either on command or triggered by specific alerts. All flight paths are displayed in real-time on the system map, supporting faster response and targeted monitoring.

    Enhanced coverage and resource efficiency: Automated drone operations reduce reaction times, provide access to hard-to-reach areas, and minimize the need for on-site personnel. Post-mission analysis also improves incident review and operational insights.

    Designed as a modular connector, DRONE DISPATCHER is compatible with multiple drone ecosystems and offers an open architecture that adapts to evolving security requirements. It’s a strategic solution for any organization aiming to integrate aerial surveillance into its security workflow—without vendor lock-in.
