Calidus Sentinel
Calidus Sentinel – Our tandem enclosed camera platform.
The Calidus Sentinel is equipped with one of a range of camera equipment, to suit different mission requirements such as traffic law enforcement, search and rescue, surveillance, aerial inspection, fire location and tracking and so much more.
