Safe Pro Group Inc. (NASDAQ: SPAI) Awarded USAF Contract Focused on Developing New AI Dataset for Airfield Operations

• Safe Pro Group recently announced that it was awarded a Small Business Innovation Research (“SBIR”) contract focused on developing a new AI dataset that will be used in airfield operations.
• Specifically, the dataset will be made using images of debris and damage that are commonly encountered on military and civilian airfields and will help address common challenges that the Department of the Air Force (“DAF”) faces.
• Developing these AI datasets could rapidly expand the applicability of Safe Pro’s computer vision technology and open up a brand-new potential market opportunity in both commercial and defense airfield operations.

Safe Pro Group (NASDAQ: SPAI), a developer of AI-powered security and defense solutions, recently announced that it was awarded a Small Business Innovation Research (“SBIR”) contract by AFWERX, which is the innovation arm of the Department of the Air Force (“DAF”) (https://ibn.fm/Z0jsM).

The contract is focused on developing a new AI dataset using images of Foreign Object Debris/Damage (“FOD”) that are often found on both U.S. Air Force (“USAF”) and civilian airfields, in order to help with the most pressing issues and challenges in the DAF.

The goal of this SBIR program is to fund emerging technologies to deliver Air Force and Space Force capabilities and expand access to disruptive innovation.

Also, AFWERX has partnered with the Air Force Research Laboratory to streamline the SBIR process by speeding up the small business experience with faster proposal to award timelines, expanding opportunities to small businesses, and getting rid of bureaucratic overhead.

Developing AI datasets for use in U.S. Air Force airfield operations could greatly expand the applicability of Safe Pro’s computer vision technology, which is designed to rapidly detect and identify small and potentially dangerous objects on both the battlefield and in post-conflict zones.

This SBIR award also follows the recent expression of interest by the U.S. Army in this capability, as the Army invited Safe Pro to provide operational support to soldiers during an airfield exercise.

Regarding the award, the Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro, Dan Erdberg, said that “The receipt of this Air Force award represents a significant new potential market opportunity for our novel AI-powered image analysis platform, expanding it into both defense and commercial airfield operations. We look forward to working with the AFWERX team on this exciting new capability and to further expanding our ability to deliver AI-powered solutions for improved situational awareness and operational decision making.”
