CISRThis headline is brought to you by the Center for International Stabilization and Recovery (CISR) which works to support resilience and recovery in global communities affected by war and conflict.
(IEEE Spectrum) The final episode, hosted by Eliza Strickland, features Gabriel Steinberg, co-founder of the Demining Research Community and Safe Pro AI. Steinberg discusses the severe landmine contamination in Ukraine and explains how their technology uses drones and AI to expedite the demining process.
Traditional demining involves manual, time-consuming methods, but their software improves efficiency by analyzing drone imagery to identify contaminated areas more quickly. This innovation aims to deploy resources more effectively, enhancing safety and speeding up land reclamation for civilians.
