Neurala, the creator of the Neurala Brain deep learning neural network AI software, has announced that it will apply its expertise and AI software in the Lindbergh Foundation\u2019s effort to combat poaching in Africa using intelligent drones.<\/p>\n
Neurala\u2019s technology can learn from any sensory stream to identify an object of interest. For the Lindbergh Foundation, Neurala will be assisting human analysts by sifting through terabytes of video, including infrared, in real time as the drone is flying. The drone will be used to pinpoint animals, vehicles and poachers, both during the day and at night.<\/p>\n
Neurala software will be used as a part of the foundation\u2019s Air Shepherd Program. The program is dedicated to the elimination of illegal poaching of elephants and rhinos in southern Africa using cutting-edge software-based predictive analysis and drones to stop poachers before they can reach target animals. Charles and Anne Morrow Lindbergh shared a vision of a balance between technological advancement and environmental preservation that is followed by the foundation today.<\/p>\n
\u201cThis is a terrific example of how AI technology can be a vital force for good,\u201d said Neurala CEO Max Versace. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled to be working with the Lindbergh Foundation in this unique partnership, contributing our deep learning software to such a worthwhile cause and doing our part to preserve endangered species.\u201d <\/p>\n
