To integrate advanced Artificial Intelligence (AI) capabilities into its drones for public safety and security, ideaForge Technology Inc., has teamed up with Skylark Labs, a US-based AI solutions company.
This partnership aims to revolutionize public safety by equipping drones with cutting-edge AI technology to detect and identify suspicious weapons, persons, vehicles, fires, and smoke in real-time. With Skylark Labs’ expertise in artificial intelligence, these drones will provide enhanced situational awareness for first responders and security personnel, making it easier to maintain safety in both urban and rural areas.
“Our partnership with Skylark Labs signifies a pivotal step forward in our dedication to advancing public safety capabilities,” said Ankit Mehta, CEO of ideaForge Technology Limited. “By integrating Skylark’s AI into ideaForge’s drones, agencies will have the most advanced tools to identify potential threats quickly and effectively.”
The ideaForge/Skylark solution uses ideaForge’s BlueFire Touch Ground Control Software, ensuring real-time analytics without needing cloud processing or internet connectivity. This feature is crucial for operations in remote areas. The drones, combined with Skylark’s ARIES platform, can detect and identify suspicious items, persons, and dangerous situations, providing enhanced monitoring capabilities.
“This partnership enables public safety agencies to use real-time data to monitor vast areas for potential threats and hazards,” said Dr Amarjot Singh, founder and CEO of Skylark Labs AI. “Skylark’s self-evolving AI technology adapts on the drone itself, shortening the software update cycle. We are excited to partner with ideaForge to bring our cutting-edge AI capabilities to their advanced drone platforms.”
The AI-integrated drones are part of ideaForge’s comprehensive Public Safety solution, which includes the SWITCH UAV and NETRA V4 PRO UAV. These drones feature autonomous capabilities, including advanced detection of weapons, suspicious persons, vehicles, fires, and smoke. The SWITCH and NETRA V4 PRO UAVs highlight ideaForge’s commitment to public safety, regulatory compliance, and high performance. They also offer low sound emissions and flight times exceeding 90 minutes, making them ideal for persistent monitoring.
The ideaForge/Skylark public safety partnership provides a critical tool for police, firefighters, and other first responder agencies to rapidly identify threats and hazards, ensuring community safety.
