Artificial intelligence: 36,000 landmines detected – new progress in Ukraine!
The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in the military sector is increasing and bringing with it remarkable progress. A current example is provided by Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI), which recently successfully detected over 36,000 mines and explosive objects. This was done through innovative AI technology based on more than two million analyzed drone images. The primary focus is on operational capability in Ukraine, where over 30 million acres are affected by unexploded explosive devices. Loud The Globe and Mail Safe Pro's technology not only provides military support, but also humanitarian assistance by creating precise 2D and 3D maps from raw data.
The integration of the patented AI object detection technology into drones also secures its use for the US Army as part of its Short Range Reconnaissance (SRR) program. Here the technology is used to quickly identify explosive threats and protect troops from danger, reports Army Technology. Safe Pro continually works to collaborate with military prime contractors to further advance Department of Defense (DoD) technologies.
Technological achievements and their effects
The power of Safe Pro's AI is remarkable: it can identify more than 150 types of landmines and processes each image in less than a second. This could prove crucial, particularly in crisis regions such as Ukraine. For a long time, humans did not have the ability to gather precise information in such a short period of time; But now technology is doing exactly that, dramatically reducing the response time to potential threats. Army Technology highlights that the technology has already been used successfully in Ukraine and the USA for over two and a half years.
A look beyond the borders shows the different approaches that AI is currently using in the military sector. After the Hamas attack on October 7, 2023, the Israeli army also implemented several AI systems. These technologies enable automated target suggestions based on extensive data analysis, for example communication data and payments. The risks involved are not insignificant T Online reports: An error quotient of around ten percent shows how difficult and potentially dangerous the decisions made by AI can be.
Outlook into the future
The developments at Safe Pro and other companies signal a clear trend: AI is becoming a central component of military strategies. Next year, Safe Pro will participate in the U.S. Army's Concept Focused Warfighter Experiment (CFWE) and further demonstrate its technologies. Apart from this, the company has also already entered into strategic partnerships with Red Cat Holdings as well as MOUs with Ondas Holdings and Unusual Machines, working together to deliver real-time imaging to the front lines.
With an investment of up to $30 billion by the DoD, as set out in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, it is clear that a good hand in defense modernization is needed. Safe Pro is at the forefront of these developments and could not only revolutionize military operations, but also contribute to security in crisis areas. The next few years promise exciting innovations and challenges for the technology and its application in the military and humanitarian sectors.
