The Company’s Participation in the 10-Day U.S. Army Training Exercise Focused on Highlighting How AI Can Empower Drones to Rapidly Detect and Map Explosive Threats
AVENTURA, Fla., July 30, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Safe Pro Group Inc. (Nasdaq: SPAI) (“Safe Pro” or the “Company”), a developer of artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled defense, security, and situational awareness solutions, announced today that it has successfully completed its participation in the U.S. Army’s Project Convergence Capstone 6 (PC-C6) exercise, a future warfare experiment conducted by the Army and premier allied nations focused on next generation command and control and emerging battlefield technologies.
Throughout the 10-day PC-C6 exercise at the National Training Center in Fort Irwin, California, Safe Pro trained soldiers on how small unmanned aircraft systems (sUAS) can be used in conjunction with Safe Pro’s patented AI-powered threat detection and mapping solutions operating on the edge. Safe Pro’s backpack sized Navigation Observation & Detection Engine-X (NODE-X) and OnSight software were highlighted in multiple missions in front of Army command and technical staff as well as distinguished visitors evaluating emerging technologies for future modernization and acquisition decisions. Under realistic combat training conditions, soldiers utilized NODE to analyze drone imagery and create detailed maps of threats including landmines and cluster munitions, rapidly sharing data across U.S. Army planning platforms in support of operational decision-making. The goal of the PC-C6 exercise is to evaluate new technologies and generate operational feedback that can help guide the Army’s future modernization efforts.
“We are thankful for the opportunity to work with soldiers and successfully complete the rigorous PC-C6 exercise. At this invite-only event, our teams were able to showcase our unique threat detection and mapping capabilities to the Army, providing further validation of the capability we can provide to ground forces on the modern battlefield and supporting the Army’s broader modernization priorities,” said Dan Erdberg, Chairman and CEO of Safe Pro Group Inc.
Powered by Safe Pro’s patented SPOTD (Safe Pro Object Threat Detection) technology, the NODE edge compute system uses AI and machine learning algorithms trained on one of the world’s largest real-world drone-based imagery datasets to instantly detect small, hard-to-find threats such as landmines, cluster munitions, UXO, and ambush drones. The platform can identify more than 150 types of explosive threats and objects of interest across large-scale, high-risk environments, turning drone-based video data into detailed 2D & 3D models. Operating on the edge without the need for connectivity, NODE enables the rapid generation of orthomosaics, vegetation height, terrain slope and digital surface maps and 3D models, all incorporating detected threats, providing rapid battlefield situational awareness to end users.
Built on battle-tested AI, Safe Pro’s technology converts raw visual data collected by drones into rapidly shareable, high-resolution 2D and 3D maps, providing a novel and scalable approach to situational awareness on the battlefield. Safe Pro’s AI dataset includes more than 2.9 million drone images and over 51,750 confirmed detections collected in over 37,835 acres of land in Ukraine.
