Patent to Detect and Locate Explosives
Utilizing AI-Powered Image Analysis, Secures IP Protection for 21
Claims Valid Until 2043
SpotlightAI™ Powered by Amazon Web Services
(AWS), is a Cloud-based Platform Utilizing Advanced Machine
Learning to Rapidly Detect, GPS-locate, and Map 150+ Types of
Landmines and Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) in Drone Imagery
Company’s “SpotlightAI™” System is Currently
in Operation in Ukraine for Humanitarian, Commercial, and
Government Reconstruction Efforts
Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the
“Company”), a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI)
solutions specializing in drone imagery processing, today announced
that on November 19, 2024 it was been awarded its first patent from
the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), for its
groundbreaking technology that identifies, locates and maps
explosives through its Artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered
SpotlightAI™ drone image analysis and reporting software platform.
This novel technology has already proven life-changing, enabling
the detection, location, and mapping of explosives to create safer
environments for potentially millions worldwide.
The newly issued patent, US Patent No. 12,146,729 includes all
21 claims made in the Company’s original patent application
entitled, “Systems and Methods for Detecting and Identifying
Explosives.” These claims cover autonomous detection,
identification, and labeling of explosives in orthomosaic images
using AI processing of drone imagery. Valid until 2043, the patent
captures the groundbreaking nature of SpotlightAI™ and its ability
to transform fields ranging from humanitarian demining,
agriculture, to national defense and reconstruction. The Company
also previously filed for global patent protection with the World
Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) under the Patent
Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) which covers patent protection rights
for 157 Contracting States including members of the EU, Asia, Latin
and South America, Africa and the Middle East.
“To date, our patented SpotlightAI™ technology has helped locate
over 10,000 landmines and other explosives in Ukraine in support of
humanitarian, agricultural and reconstruction efforts. Our goal now
is to further leverage our newly protected IP as we seek to
collaborate with a broadened array of potential new partners and
customers in commercial, humanitarian and national defense markets
where our technology can support their critical missions,” said Dan
Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.
The SpotlightAI™ system is currently in operation in Ukraine
with multiple humanitarian mine action organizations including the
United Nations Development Programme (“UNDP”) and government
entities where it has now processed over 840,614 images, analyzed
over 11,768 GB of data and identified over 10,912 real-world
landmines and unexploded ordnance. Real-world landmine detection
statistics from Ukraine can be found at the Company’s Real-World
Landmine Detection Counter at
https://safeproai.com/landmine-detections/.
Compatible with commercially available off-the-shelf (“COTS”)
drones, Safe Pro’s SpotlightAI™ hyper scalable, cloud-based
software ecosystem utilizes advanced machine learning (“ML”) models
for small object detection and data reporting built on an extensive
proprietary dataset capable of rapidly identifying and locating
150+ types of land mines and UXO. Supported by the hyper
scalability of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud, SpotlightAI™
can process massive amounts of sub-centimeter-level drone imagery
to securely generate detailed, high-resolution orthomosaic maps
highlighting objects of interest. It can then plot the detection
results on customizable, GPS-tagged, sub-centimeter-level, high
resolution 2-D and 3-D maps to provide a “bird’s-eye view” of the
surveyed area, delivering enhanced situational awareness for
planning clearing and land release efforts by local governments and
humanitarian aid organizations.
AWS funded and published a case study on the effectiveness of
SpotlightAI™ and its use in Ukraine and a video introduction to
SpotlightAI™ and its application as a tool for global demining, can
