Abstract
The present specification provides systems, devices and methods for controlling an uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) at a public safety incident. An example method contemplates placing a UAV in a shadow mode that follows a firefighter's movements throughout the PSI while monitoring voice activity while the UAV performs tasks such as sending images from a camera to a central server. Potential voice commands are extracted from the voice activity and associated with tasks being performed by the UAV. A machine learning dataset is built from those associations such that at future incidents the UAV can operate in a freelance mode based on detected voice commands or other contextual factors.
