Purpose and goal
The project aims to adapt an advanced drone camera system for real-time surveillance and threat detection for military use. With the combination of wide-angle optics, AI and patent-pending stabilization technology, a robust and maintenance-free system is created. The goal is to improve situational awareness and security through an adaptable solution that uses synthetic data for AI training and can be used in areas such as border surveillance and rescue operations.
Expected effects and result
The project is expected to create improved conditions for Synclair Vision to establish itself in the defense industry through the accelerator program, which strengthens the company´s readiness to become a supplier to military actors. A significant success would be if the project leads to long-term collaborations or continuation projects with military actors, which would strengthen the company´s presence in both civilian and military markets.
Planned approach and implementation
The project is designed to maximize learning from the accelerator program through close collaboration with defense and industry partners. Synclair Vision will listen to the needs of drone surveillance personnel and develop technology that meets their practical eligibility requirements. The project concludes with a final demonstration of a military demo platform to demonstrate the system´s capability and its potential in defense applications.
