Patent to Detect and Locate Explosives Utilizing AI-Powered Image Analysis, Secures IP Protection for 21 Claims Valid Until 2043

SpotlightAI™ Powered by Amazon Web Services (AWS), is a Cloud-based Platform Utilizing Advanced Machine Learning to Rapidly Detect, GPS-locate, and Map 150+ Types of Landmines and Unexploded Ordnance (UXO) in Drone Imagery

Company’s “SpotlightAI™” System is Currently in Operation in Ukraine for Humanitarian, Commercial, and Government Reconstruction Efforts

Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the “Company”), a leading provider of artificial intelligence (AI) solutions specializing in drone imagery processing, today announced that on November 19, 2024 it was been awarded its first patent from the United States Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”), for its groundbreaking technology that identifies, locates and maps explosives through its Artificial intelligence (“AI”)-powered SpotlightAI™ drone image analysis and reporting software platform. This novel technology has already proven life-changing, enabling the detection, location, and mapping of explosives to create safer environments for potentially millions worldwide.

The newly issued patent, US Patent No. 12,146,729 includes all 21 claims made in the Company’s original patent application entitled, “Systems and Methods for Detecting and Identifying Explosives.” These claims cover autonomous detection, identification, and labeling of explosives in orthomosaic images using AI processing of drone imagery. Valid until 2043, the patent captures the groundbreaking nature of SpotlightAI™ and its ability to transform fields ranging from humanitarian demining, agriculture, to national defense and reconstruction. The Company also previously filed for global patent protection with the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) under the Patent Cooperation Treaty (“PCT”) which covers patent protection rights for 157 Contracting States including members of the EU, Asia, Latin and South America, Africa and the Middle East.

“To date, our patented SpotlightAI™ technology has helped locate over 10,000 landmines and other explosives in Ukraine in support of humanitarian, agricultural and reconstruction efforts. Our goal now is to further leverage our newly protected IP as we seek to collaborate with a broadened array of potential new partners and customers in commercial, humanitarian and national defense markets where our technology can support their critical missions,” said Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.

The SpotlightAI™ system is currently in operation in Ukraine with multiple humanitarian mine action organizations including the United Nations Development Programme (“UNDP”) and government entities where it has now processed over 840,614 images, analyzed over 11,768 GB of data and identified over 10,912 real-world landmines and unexploded ordnance. Real-world landmine detection statistics from Ukraine can be found at the Company’s Real-World Landmine Detection Counter at https://safeproai.com/landmine-detections/.

Compatible with commercially available off-the-shelf (“COTS”) drones, Safe Pro’s SpotlightAI™ hyper scalable, cloud-based software ecosystem utilizes advanced machine learning (“ML”) models for small object detection and data reporting built on an extensive proprietary dataset capable of rapidly identifying and locating 150+ types of land mines and UXO. Supported by the hyper scalability of the Amazon Web Services (AWS) Cloud, SpotlightAI™ can process massive amounts of sub-centimeter-level drone imagery to securely generate detailed, high-resolution orthomosaic maps highlighting objects of interest. It can then plot the detection results on customizable, GPS-tagged, sub-centimeter-level, high resolution 2-D and 3-D maps to provide a “bird’s-eye view” of the surveyed area, delivering enhanced situational awareness for planning clearing and land release efforts by local governments and humanitarian aid organizations.

AWS funded and published a case study on the effectiveness of SpotlightAI™ and its use in Ukraine and a video introduction to SpotlightAI™ and its application as a tool for global demining, can be viewed here.
