Safe Pro Group Successfully Utilizes AI Tools in U.S. Army Exercise
Safe Pro Group completed its participation in the U.S. Army Transforming in Contact 2.0 Autonomous Breach event where its patented AI tools were successfully utilized in real-world operational environments by soldiers and command personnel throughout the two week long operational exercise at Ft. Hood, TX. The U.S. Army's wants to put $1 Billion dollars into Transforming in Contact 2.0 to sponsor and fund the rapid equipping and testing of advanced technologies including drones, electronic warfare, mobility, counter-mobility, and mission planning technologies, directly with soldiers. During the TiC 2.0 Autonomous Breach event, participating industry teams were given an opportunity to integrate and demonstrate their technologies alongside soldiers from the 1st Cavalry Division and the 36th Engineer Brigade, III Corps. Selective highlights from the TiC 2.0 event were recently featured in reporting by Stars and Stripes which can be read here. At the two-week long invitation only event hosted by the U.S. Army's Application Laboratory at Fort Hood, Texas, the Company's patented Safe Pro Object Threat Detection AI-powered drone imagery analysis platform was utilized by soldiers trained and operating in the field. During daily day and night exercises, soldiers relied upon the Company's AI tools to rapidly identify ground-based threats in imagery collected by drones including anti-vehicle and anti-personnel mines, barbed wire and emplaced fortifications and obstacles. Threat detections and their location data were integrated into situational awareness and mission planning tools including soldier-carried devices running the Tactical Awareness Kit and General Dynamics Mission Systems' GeoSuite. The collected threat and obstacle data was also processed by the Company's AI edge-based Navigation, Observation & Detection Engine to create 2D/3D terrain maps and digital surface models utilized by command personnel to rapidly inform route and mission planning.
