[Drone technology](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dji-matrice-400) of today is paving the way for the solutions of tomorrow, so the conceptually designed ARUS Drone identifies what we could be seeing in the near future when it comes to emergency response. The drone incorporates a donut-shaped main body that has a series of [cameras on the exterior](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/argus-ar-helmet) in order to accurately detail information to emergency response crews in order to see what kind of aid is required.

The ARUS Drone is the design work of Kegan McDaniel and could be used by crews in order to keep an eye on what's happening or if more reinforcements are required in order to get things in order. This comes as a realistic solution that we could see taking to the skies sooner than later.
