The Future
of Emergency
Response
Autonomous aerial systems that bypass traffic entirely. We're building the infrastructure for sub-3-minute emergency response in urban environments.
Every Minute Matters
Average urban ambulance response
Standard response times in major cities, assuming clear roads.
During traffic or high-rise access
Elevators, construction, rush hour—precious minutes lost.
Per minute without defibrillation
For cardiac arrest, every minute decreases survival by 10%.
What if emergency response
bypassed traffic entirely?
Aerotrem is building autonomous aerial systems for urban emergency response. Direct-to-rooftop delivery of medical supplies. Vertical takeoff. Electric propulsion. Under 3 minutes.
“In my opinion, the time spent in an elevator or staircase or stuck in traffic constitutes precious minutes wasted by First Responders.”
Built for the
Impossible
Four years of competition-tested engineering. From blended-wing designs to tail-sitter configurations—we've pushed the boundaries of autonomous flight.
Tilt-Wing VTOL
6m wingspan tilt-wing design with 3.6m propellers. Launch from disaster zones, rooftops, or flooded terrain.
AI Navigation
Jetson Nano compute with LIDAR and RGB sensors. Modified A* algorithm for real-time obstacle avoidance.
25.2 kWh Battery
70-minute cruise endurance. 190 m/s max speed. Nose cone opens for rapid high-amp charging between missions.
115 kg Payload
Heavy-lift capacity for medical supplies, AEDs, water, and rescue equipment. Industrial-grade cargo delivery.
Technical Specifications
Research Innovations
Tilt-Wing / Lifting Body
NACA 25012 ribbed airfoil with V-Tail stability for efficient cruise and VTOL capability.
Adverse Terrain Landing
Active hydraulic piston skids level the aircraft on hills or extend for flood landings.
AI Navigation System
Jetson Nano + LIDAR + RGB with modified A* algorithm for autonomous obstacle avoidance.
