Safe Pro Group to Present its Patented Drone AI-Powered Imagery Analysis Technology in “Demining Ukraine with Drones and Image Recognition” Session at XPONENTIAL Europe

Company to Highlight American AI Technology for Potential Role in Recent Ukraine/Russia Ceasefire Initiatives to Support Demilitarized Zone (DMZ) and the Long-Term Rebuilding Plan Including Supporting Agriculture

AVENTURA, Fla.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- 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 its Safe Pro AI subsidiary will be presenting its patented Drone AI-Powered SpotlightAI^TM technology at XPONENTIAL Europe, the leading European trade fair for autonomous technologies and robotics, taking place in Düsseldorf, Germany from February 18^th to February 20^th, 2025.

At the event, Gabriel Steinberg, Lead Software & AI Developer at the Company’s Safe Pro AI subsidiary will be hosting a special session entitled, “Demining Ukraine with Drones and Image Recognition.” The presentation will highlight the results of Company’s years of work in Ukraine including processing over 945,000 drone images with more than 19,250 confirmed detections of deadly mines and Unexploded Ordnance (UXO).

Safe Pro’s on-the-ground work in Ukraine includes supporting the State Special Transportation Service (SSTS), a unit of the Ukraine Ministry of Defense, NIBULON Ltd., Ukraine’s leading agriculture organization and multiple global humanitarian aid organizations. If a potential ceasefire deal is secured, the international peacekeeping forces deployed to monitor and maintain a ceasefire will need to conduct detailed analysis of the massive DMZ, an area that could exceed hundreds of miles of terrain contaminated by landmines, unexploded ordnance (UXO) and other explosive remnants of war (ERW). Safe Pro’s AI-powered mine and UXO detection capabilities can aid international peacekeeping forces by enabling safer operations within any potential DMZ. The proven capabilities of SpotlightAI^TM in addressing the scale of potential landmine contamination has led to Ukraine’s SSTS to formally request Safe Pro’s assistance in obtaining international support for additional demining resources including its AI-powered drone imagery analysis technology.

“We are honored to present our disruptive American AI capabilities to leading international authorities at this pivotal point in time as global leaders are meeting in Europe to discuss the future security needs of Ukraine. Being chosen to present at flagship global events such as XPONENTIAL affords us the opportunity to bring greater attention to our firm and how our technology can support our allied nations in their global missions,” said Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.

Safe Pro’s proprietary AI models have now analyzed more than 945,000 drone images in Ukraine, pinpointing over 19,250 explosive remnants of war (ERW) across 4,355 hectares (over 10,756 acres or approximately 8,150 NFL-sized football fields). Operating at lightning speed on the Amazon Web Services (AWS) cloud, SpotlightAI™ analyzes each drone image in less than 0.2 seconds. In contrast, traditional human analysis can take several minutes per image-a process that could span decades if done manually. Real-world Ukraine detection statistics and imagery can be found at Safe Pro AI’s Landmine and UXO Detection Counter at https://safeproai.com/landmine-detections/

The SpotlightAI™ 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. Operating locally for rapid object detection and locating, or through the hyper scalability of the AWS Cloud, SpotlightAI™ can process massive amounts of sub-centimeter-level drone imagery, providing customers with unique flexibility based on evolving operational needs. Enhanced with the hyper scalability of the AWS cloud, SpotlightAI™ can securely generate detailed, high-resolution orthomosaic maps highlighting objects of interest and can plot detection results on customizable, GPS-tagged, sub-centimeter-level, high resolution 2D and enhanced, interactive 3D maps. These maps can 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.
