The Vantage Robotics Trace is an ultra-portable nano ISR drone built for public safety, tactical, and industrial inspection teams that need discreet aerial intelligence in tight or sensitive environments. Weighing roughly 153 g, Trace delivers stabilized EO + thermal imaging, GPS-denied flight capability, and extremely low acoustic signature for covert overwatch and indoor reconnaissance.

Trace is designed for rapid deployment and confined-space operations. Folding arms, a backpack-ready form factor, and a 30-second launch time enable quick deployment from vehicles or on foot. The drone supports 48 MP EO imaging, thermal sensing, and digital zoom, giving operators the situational awareness of much larger UAV systems in a pocket-sized platform.

With AES-256 encrypted communications, NDAA-compliant manufacturing, and compatibility with Vantage’s Vision2 ground control system, Trace is purpose-built for mission-critical ISR and infrastructure inspections.

Typical use cases include:

  • Indoor tactical reconnaissance

  • Critical infrastructure inspection

  • Confined-space industrial inspections

  • Covert overwatch for public safety

  • Security and perimeter awareness
