Edinburgh-based maritime safety technology firm Zelim reports that it has completed trials of its ZOE Intelligent Detection and Tracking system with CASARA, Canada’s Civil Air Search and Rescue Association.
CASARA, a volunteer organisation that participates in many of the county’s search and rescue missions at sea and on land, tested the AI-enabled system in British Columbia with its drone capability to better detect persons in the water during realistic ocean search scenarios.
Co-developed with the US Coast Guard, ZOE is designed to autonomously detect and track people and objects in water, in real time. Since the development of the technology, Zelim has been collecting data across a range of search scenarios and weather conditions to train its artificial intelligence detection models and ensure the system can provide accurate search performance across all types of incidents.
