His life in one drone owes a 14-year-old who was fighting a big wave off a beach in Valencia. The drone dropped a life jacket into the sea that kept the child afloat as he began to sink, until a lifeguard arrived minutes later.
“When we arrived we saw a child in very bad condition, with no energy to keep afloat, so I sent a life preserver,” said Miguel Angel Pedrero, a drone pilot for General Drones, which provides the technology.
“Because of the strong waves, it was a complicated maneuver, but we finally managed to give him the life jacket and he was able to float until the lifeguards reached him with a jet ski,” he said according to APE-MPE, citing Reuters.
General Drones, which started in 2017 to provide services in a city in the region of Valencia, now has 30 pilots and its drones are now activated in 22 of its beaches Spain providing rapid response in critical moments, before lifeguards can reach the incident. “These extra seconds are crucial in some cases and allow rescue teams to approach the person more calmly and carefully,” explains Miguel Ángel Pedrero.
