Safe Pro and Kyiv Polytechnic Sign MOU to Collaborate on AI and Drone Technology
The US-based company Safe Pro Group Inc., a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) -powered solutions specializing in small object threat detection and the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute (“the Kyiv Polytechnic Institute” or “KPI”) have signed a multi-year Memorandum of Understanding under which they will collaborate on utilizing the Company’s patented AI-powered drone image processing technology, SpotlightAI™, to develop enhanced demining methodologies and potential training programs.
The Kyiv Polytechnic Institute is the largest technical university in Ukraine and one of Europe’s leading research universities. Under the agreement, the two organizations will collaborate on developing enhanced demining survey methodologies and training programs leveraging Safe Pro’s SpotlightAI™, patented hyper-scalable AI-powered drone demining ecosystem running on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud. Safe Pro and KPI researchers will combine their respective experience and expertise in the field of AI-powered drone imagery analysis and humanitarian demining training programs to implement innovative AI technologies to improve the accuracy and efficiency of land surveying. Additional collaboration may include the establishment of a virtual reality training center for developing projects that incorporate cutting-edge technologies and artificial intelligence for demining, environmental safety, agricultural and rare earth geology projects, and the reconstruction of Ukraine’s infrastructure.
“Safe Pro is proud to collaborate with KPI, one of the foremost research institutions of its kind in Ukraine, and with its talented team who are dedicated to leveraging cutting-edge innovations such as our AI-powered small object threat detection technology into a truly modern approach to demining,” said Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.
Anatolii Melnychenko, Rector of the Igor Sikorsky Kyiv Polytechnic Institute, commented, “As one of the first research organizations in Ukraine to formally create comprehensive training programs for humanitarian demining personnel, we immediately recognized the revolutionary impact that AI-powered technologies can have on improving the speed and effectiveness of locating and identifying landmines and unexploded ordnance. We look forward to working with Safe Pro as we seek to integrate advanced technologies and modernize humanitarian demining and help train the next generation of brave men and women who are committed to eliminating the threat of landmines in Ukraine.”
