South Africa's largest private security provider, Fidelity, is adding a squadron of drones operated by trained pilots to keep an eye on estates in Johannesburg.
The two-month trial will be conducted in partnership with UDS Group, which has drones equipped with electro-optical and infrared sensors.
The drones will be linked to Fidelity's mobile command centre which dispatches its armed responders.
The programme will be extended to shopping centres from August if Fidelity gets its licence to fly in other areas.
