Risk Issues And Mitigation Opportunities: GXO is responsible for billions of dollars in assets and revenues. Ensuring that customers can resiliently distribute their products in an effective, efficient, and timely manner enables world-class service level agreements. The GXO security team was looking for an innovative solution for their perimeter security operations that addressed oversight of key risk mitigation opportunities including:

Enhanced visual security risk, threat, and vulnerability coverage in and around large distribution centers and warehouses with many potential access points. Optimized autonomous support of security officers to mitigate a country-wide labor shortage. Improved reliability for observing and reporting alarms, anomalies, and mitigation responses. Improved brand value protection through more effective security response, asset protection, and risk management procedures. Created a safer environment for employees and contractors by using robotic solutions rather than personnel to investigate security alarms. Delivered value to shareholders by optimizing corporate security costs and prioritizing solutions that are scalable while providing an ROI. Built a layered security solution to effectively protect people, assets, and stakeholder interests. Created a flexible and repeatable process for detecting, investigating, reporting, and responding to alarms while lowering the liability risk of people (contractors, employees, first responders, visitors) in the process.

Solution Requirements: Automated drone system to include a battery swap capability for back-to-back security missions with less than 5 minutes of downtime. Note: All other drone-in-a-box systems have a ~40-minute downtime to fully charge by using an inductive charging system rather than battery swap. 24/7/365 customer support. Remote monitoring capability with real-time video feeds and tele-operable drones/robotics at near-real-time speeds (less than .5 second latency). A dedicated Robotic Security Operations Center (RSOC) for remote monitoring and operations. Automated remote software updates. Consistently scheduled maintenance plan to enable system reliability throughout the length of the multi-year contracts. OPEX costing structure. A clear regulatory path to receive Beyond Visual Line-of-Sight (BVLOS) waivers from the Federal Aviation Administration.

GXO Logistics, Inc. (NYSE: GXO), the world’s largest pure-play contract logistics provider, announced today that it has deployed advanced air and ground security robotics at one of its major distribution centers in Clayton, Ind., and plans to significantly increase deployment of automated security systems across other sites within the next year. This would be the largest air and ground security robotics fleet in the world. The DroneDog and DroneSentry duo, integrated with the DroneCore security platform from Asylon, Inc., are security technologies of the future, providing high-quality data and onsite activity updates that can detect potential issues in real time and simultaneously report them to the security team.

“We launched the DroneDog and DroneSentry advanced security system at a customer’s facility that is more than 1 million square feet and requires a 24/7 security presence to safeguard our people and the products,” said Thomas Nelson, Senior Director of Security at GXO. “The combination of air and ground robotics gives us superb live video feed, including infrared vision for nighttime patrols, that we can operate, evaluate and respond to in real time.”

GXO has already used these robotic assets to conduct more than 12,000 patrols or first-responder missions. The company also has used these robotic assets to investigate and clear alarms, as well as complete video-verified security audits, saving miles of walk time for team members. This technology is detecting potential issues in real time while making the environment safer for team members and securing the customer’s products.

This week, leading air and ground robotic security company Asylon, Inc. revealed that it has been granted three beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) waivers from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).Pertaining to the company’s automated security drone-in-a-box system and service, these waivers will authorize Asylon to conduct BVLOS operations within four initial sites around the U.S. Though similar waivers have been granted to groups such as Google’s Wing, Zipline, Xcel Energy, and Matternet, this is the first time a waiver of this class has been granted for an automated security drone system.

Asylon first worked alongside the FAA in February 2020 as part of the BEYOND Program, then known as the UAS Integration Pilot Program, when the company deployed its automated DroneSentry system at Memphis International Airport for FedEx Express.
