Feasibility assessment
Map the missions, terrain, obstacles, airspace restrictions and operating conditions.
Surveillance drones
Validate feasibility, operating conditions and practical value before deployment.
Integrate a surveillance drone into your security system.
My Robot Guard assesses aerial-security projects in Switzerland, from the initial site review to a controlled pilot, then coordinates integration with sensors, monitoring tools and site procedures.
Your objective
Validate feasibility, operating conditions and practical value before deployment.
A drone becomes relevant when distance, obstacles or blind spots slow down alarm verification. It can reach a remote fence, inspect a roof or provide an overview of a large perimeter. It is not the right answer for every site.
Our assessment begins with the mission rather than a particular aircraft. We review the terrain, airspace, people who may be present, obstacles, weather, privacy requirements and the security measures already operating on the site.
Where the scenario is compatible, the drone becomes part of a complete operating chain. A sensor detects an event, the monitoring team qualifies it, the flight provides another viewpoint when conditions allow, and an operator follows the agreed response procedure.
Deployment should begin with a limited perimeter and a small number of measurable scenarios. This pilot validates time to useful imagery, real system availability, cancelled missions and the human workload genuinely reduced.
The challenge
A useful flight begins with a lawful mission and a fallback layer.
01An aerial view creates value only when it genuinely reduces uncertainty around an alarm.
02Technical autonomy never removes the responsibilities of the operator and remote pilot.
03Routes, camera angles and footage retention must protect people and neighbouring properties.
04Weather, connectivity, batteries and maintenance require fallback protection whenever the drone remains grounded.
A purpose-built architecture
From feasibility to pilot, one complete operating chain.
Operating framework
Define the flight category, responsibilities, competence, privacy controls and degraded modes.
System integration
Connect the dock, sensors, video, monitoring platform and response procedures.
Measured pilot
Test a small number of scenarios on a limited perimeter before extending coverage or investment.
Use cases
Targeted uses where the aerial viewpoint creates practical value.
- Alarm verification along a remote fence or entrance
- Scheduled patrols across a compatible industrial perimeter
- Checks of roofs, yards and outdoor stock
- Security monitoring for construction sites and material depots
- Large private estates with suitable flight corridors
- Post-incident observation or inspection of hard-to-reach areas
Frequently asked questions
What to know before designing the solution.
How do we know whether a surveillance drone is relevant to our site?
It should provide faster or more complete information than fixed cameras, a ground robot or a human patrol. Perimeter size, obstacles, verification time and the ability to create safe flight routes are decisive.
Can a drone launch automatically after an alarm?
Some sequences can be automated, but every mission remains subject to aviation law and an operator's responsibility. Remote flight beyond direct visual line of sight will generally enter the specific category and require the applicable framework or authorisation. Feasibility must be assessed case by case.
What do you check before proposing a pilot?
We review the mission, restriction map, airspace, people, obstacles, weather, communications, recorded data, responsibilities and the response procedure triggered by an alarm.
May the drone record neighbouring properties or public space?
Routes and camera angles should limit recording to the necessary perimeter. Swiss data-protection law applies whenever people are identifiable. Recording neighbouring land or public space requires particularly strong justification.
How do you measure the success of a pilot?
Relevant indicators include time from alarm to useful imagery, cancelled missions, transmission quality, alarms qualified more accurately, system availability and human time genuinely saved.
What happens when the drone cannot fly?
The system must retain a fallback layer. Fixed cameras, sensors, a ground robot or human intervention remain available according to the site's risks and procedures.
What budget is required for a complete solution?
The budget depends on the aircraft, dock, sensors, software, integration, operating framework, maintenance and service level. A reliable estimate requires an initial review of the site and intended missions.
