Vizgard is proud to have contributed to these ground-breaking trials. Collecting real-world data remains one of the most significant challenges in defence innovation, so it's encouraging to see Dstl setting the standard. Their efforts are equipping industry with the vital tools needed to develop innovative AI solutions that are not only robust but also deliver the critical real-world performance essential for modern defence applications. #DSTL #DefenceInnovation #AI #artificialintelligence #maritimesecurity

Uncrewed Systems Powered by FortifAI Visual AI Force Multiplier for Cross-Domain Autonomy FortifAI is a state-of-the-art visual intelligence platform that transcends standard object detection and tracking. Our distributed 'system's approach' to edge-based computer vision offers granular intelligence gathering and heightened real-world reliability, especially in new environments or against novel threats. With a single JSON-based API (no internet required), any UxV can be augmented with precision camera or vehicle steering, multi-domain object detection, person/crowd/vehicular behaviour threat analysis, geo-spatial tagging, GNSS-denied visual navigation, and more. Open Architecture for Rapid Integration FortifAI facilitates rapid integration and prototyping by providing easy access to foundational visual autonomy building blocks such as low-latency multi-video encoding/decoding/transcoding (with metadata), external sensor track fusion, small object detection and tracking, and a growing library of industry-standard vehicle and steerable camera control protocols (e.g., MAVLink, PX4, NMEA 0183, STANAG 4609). Already invested significant resources in your in-house proprietary machine-learning model? Our modular architecture allows seamless swapping of our built-in models for partner models, all encrypted for added security. Deployment Platforms FortifAI has been successfully deployed on the following platform types: -Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) -Unmanned Ground Vehicles (UGVs) -Uncrewed Surface Vessels (USVs) -Uncrewed Underwater Vessels (UUVs) #FortifAI #SystemIntegration #Innovation #TechUpdate #AI #MavLink #QGroundControl #EdgeComputing #TechInnovation #DroneTech

First spot of international travel for Vizgard this week participating in the Parrot Innovation Days in Latvia and Lithuania. I got to understand some of the challenges faced by their law enforcement and defence community, and learn about some awesome other capabilities on offer within the Parrot partner ecosystem during two afternoons of live demonstrations. Big thanks to Asif Gillani and Andrew Sparshott for letting me tag along and to F9 Distribution Baltic for organising not one but two flawless events! Great to meet/catch up with Reveal Technology, Coptrz Defence, Tomahawk, Galvion and SnigelDesign AB

  🌟 Impressive Parrot drone presentation in Latvia! 🌟   Yesterday, we had the pleasure of hosting a remarkable Parrot drone & ecosystem presentation from esteemed companies in Latvia.   Our visitors were treated not only in engaging training sessions but also had the opportunity to see products at manufacturers demo stands. It was a remarkable opportunity — from seeing the products up close to witnessing real sample demonstrations. It was an impressive experience. 🚀   We would like to extend our heartfelt thanks to all the attendees and to Parrot, Galvion, SnigelDesign AB, Vizgard, Tomahawk, Reveal Technology, PELI Products, Baltic Unmanned for making this event memorable.   Stay tuned for more exciting updates and events! 🎉   #F9DistributionBaltic #ITDistributor #Parrot #Galvion #Snigel #Vizgard #TomahawkRoboticsKinesis #RevealTechnology #Peli
