Here’s a behind-the-scenes look from last week’s inter-agency search and rescue exercise.

We were grateful for the opportunity to participate alongside National Guard members, state agencies, and emergency response partners working through real-world SAR scenarios.

For our team, the most meaningful part isn’t just seeing our technology put to the test in the field — it’s seeing how it can support people doing critical, life-safety work across North Dakota.

We're excited to keep cheering them on as they continue their run at the World Robotics Championship! Go, Turtles! 🐢
