Trakka, September 10, 2018 - SARASOTA, Florida — Trakka Systems is pleased to announce that the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office RAVEN program has selected the TrakkaCam TC-300 and Trakka’s Map & Video Management System the TM-100 to replace the 8500 manufactured by FLIR Systems and Churchill Map system.

RAVEN utilizes the TrakkaCam TC-300 and TrakkaMaps TM-100 to locate crime suspects and to perform search and rescue missions.

“We are extremely pleased the TrakkaCam TC-300, and TrakkaMaps TM-100 have been chosen to support the demanding mission requirements for another premier program, and for this opportunity to support the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office RAVEN program,” said Mike Kipphorn, Business Development Manager, North America West at Trakka Systems. “We look forward to ongoing business with Washoe County Sherriff’s Office and the significant customer growth throughout the North American region.”

The newly purchased TrakkaCam TC-300 and TrakkaMaps TM-100 were utilized on Monday night, August 27, 2018, to locate two adults and an 18-month-old baby. They were found after being lost for eight hours on a cold night in the Sierra. RAVEN’s Chief Pilot, Sergeant Doug Russell, said the differences between the previous 8500 manufactured by FLIR Systems and the replacement TrakkaCam TC-300 is astronomical. Russell said it only took two hours to locate the lost individuals with the newly installed TrakkaCam TC-300 and it would have taken a lot more time and been a lot more difficult with the old system.

The system comprises an innovative lightweight 300mm gimbal and has a total mass less than 19kg.
