Kavin Lingham is a freshman at Alpha High in Austin, passionate about aviation and building innovative solutions. With a background as a student pilot and martial artist, he is driven to create technology that supports first responders. Kavin leverages AI and hands-on research to bring his ideas to life.
Kavin plans to attend college, with interests in Temple University Japan, MIT, Caltech, UT Austin, or Purdue, and is considering learning Japanese. He aims to develop his project to a point where it can be sold, then pursue new ventures.
Kavin explored his interests in aviation and technology, which led to the initial idea for a drone-based solution to assist first responders. He used AI tools to brainstorm and refine the concept, focusing on how drones could provide unique value in emergency situations.

Crisis Lift aims to revolutionize emergency response by making advanced aerial support accessible and reliable for first responders. In the long term, the project envisions improving public safety, reducing response times, and setting a new standard for technology-assisted emergency management in communities worldwide.
Funds Raised
To enhance the effectiveness and safety of first responders by providing them with real-time aerial perspectives and thermal data during critical incidents.
First responders, including police and fire departments.
Crisis Lift is a modular drone system designed to support first responders by providing continuous aerial surveillance and thermal imaging during emergencies. The drones are launched from a mobile truck platform and rotate to ensure constant coverage. This project represents months of dedicated research, development, and implementation, resulting in a solution that addresses real-world challenges and creates meaningful impact.
