Drones are changing fire service—and Detroit Fire Department (DFD) is leading the way. In this fast-paced 20-minute session, Reginald Whitaker and Anthony Watts from DFD join Skydio’s Jason LaFond to share how their team is using autonomous drones to manage everything from building explosions and flood response to high-profile events like the NFL Draft. Learn how they tackled funding and policy head-on, and how they built a cross-functional program that brings together firefighters, leadership, and city stakeholders to ensure drones are fully integrated into daily operations.
