Flock Safety, a law enforcement technology startup, has acquired the drone startup Aerodome for over $300 million. This acquisition is part of Flock Safety's strategy to enhance its surveillance capabilities using advanced technology. Both companies are backed by Andreessen Horowitz (a16z), with Flock Safety having raised over $680 million and Aerodome securing approximately $28 million in funding. The deal highlights the growing trend of integrating AI and drone technology in law enforcement to improve public safety and enforcement efforts, particularly in relation to issues like sideshow events in the Bay Area, where smaller cities are also adopting AI tools for detection and enforcement.
