Start with the rescue.
We focus on sensor sets for search-and-rescue applications, with the needs of crews and the people they serve at the center of the work.

IN DEVELOPMENT 01 / The mission
New aircraft.
The same human purpose.
A new generation of vertical-lift aircraft is taking shape. Our purpose is to help connect that future to one of aviation’s most important missions: finding people and bringing them home.
Consider the whole aircraft.
Our development focus includes how sensing can fit within emerging electric vertical takeoff and landing aircraft and other VTOL platforms.
Make information useful.
Our goal is to help sensing serve the mission, connecting the information a system can provide with the decisions a rescue team needs to make.
02 / Our approach
Sensing is only
part of the picture.
A sensor set belongs within a larger system. We are shaping our work around the relationship between mission needs, aircraft integration, and useful information.
- 01Understand the mission
Start with search-and-rescue needs and the operating context.
- 02Define the integration
Consider aircraft constraints and the path from sensing to use.
- 03Develop and evaluate
Build toward evidence, with validation appropriate to the intended application.
03 / Why it matters
Technology with
someone to come
home for.
Search and rescue is a human mission. The aircraft and systems involved are tools in service of the people who need help and the crews working to reach them.
RAT Industries LLC is a U.S. startup based in Atlanta, Georgia, developing sensor sets for search-and-rescue aircraft integration. As our work progresses, this site will share the milestones, technical information, and collaboration opportunities we are ready to make public.

04 / Company questions
About RAT Industries
Our company, our focus, and the aircraft we are developing for.
What is RAT Industries?
RAT Industries LLC is a U.S. startup based in Atlanta, Georgia. We are developing sensor sets intended to support search-and-rescue operations through integration with emerging vertical-lift aircraft.
What is the company developing?
Our focus is sensor sets for search-and-rescue aircraft integration. We are shaping the work around mission needs, aircraft constraints, and information that is useful to rescue crews. Detailed sensor configurations and performance specifications are not currently published on this website.
Which types of aircraft are the focus?
We are focused on emerging eVTOL and VTOL aircraft. VTOL means vertical takeoff and landing; eVTOL refers to aircraft that use electric propulsion for vertical takeoff and landing. The website describes development goals and does not imply certification or approval for an aircraft or mission.
