May 26 2020 - 8:00AM
Patriot One Technologies Inc.’s (TSX: PAT) (OTCQX: PTOTF)
(FRANKFURT: 0PL) wholly-owned subsidiary Xtract Technologies
(“Xtract AI”) is pleased to announce it has
secured a $157,000 contract with Canada’s Department of National
Defence through the Public Works and Government Services Canada
Division, as part of the Innovative Solutions Canada Program (ISC).
The contract is for a project looking to provide
better situational awareness for Canadian firefighters. The outcome
will be a solution that will provide innovative devices,
applications, personal protective equipment and technology to help
firefighters work in a more Head Up Hands Free (HU/HF) mode of
operation on the fire ground. Using Xtract AI’s expertise in
artificial intelligence for video and data analysis the project
will aim to:
- integrate multiple sensors and biometric data feeds to assess
the health, status and safety of firefighters in the field
- detect objects and people in smoke, and predict flow path and
flashover using thermal and video imaging feeds in real time
- feed appropriate and necessary data back to incident commanders
and firefighters in the field through a combination of dashboards,
heads up displays, and haptic and audio feedback to increase
efficiencies and remove distractions
Work will proceed in multiple phases, including
the design and development of advanced machine learning models,
proprietary data sets and integration with advanced visualization
solutions.
“We’re tremendously excited to be working on
this project and thank the Innovative Solutions Canada Program
(ISC) for selecting us,” expresses Martin Cronin, CEO of Patriot
One. “Xtract AI’s knowledge of artificial intelligence, and data
and video analysis are an ideal match for this challenge, and we
relish the opportunity to put these into a solution that will
assist Canadian firefighters in being better informed, more
efficient and, ultimately, safer.”
