Support to fire brigade at a wildfire

Support to fire brigade at a wildfire On May 6th we were preparing a flight test at the beach of St.Peter-Ording to collect training data for the onboard AI. What started as a routine flight test day turned into a real emergency scenario soon. Right before takeoff to our first planned flight we got requested to support the local fire brigades at a wildfire at the salt marshes at the south beach. We did 4 flights with over 20min each providing live video feed from our onboard RGB and IR camera into the ground control van helping the operations team on a live situational awareness.

Successful test of ML based object detection

Successful test of ML based object detection  The WRD team was out recently testing ML based object detection on real hardware. Supported by DLRG team we had a windsurfer and a kite surfer placed in the water. Task of our NXP Auriol drone equipped with SIYI ZT-30 gimbal camera and NXP NavQ+ (i.MX8M-plus) with internal NPU was to detect the objects in water and deliver a live video stream of both RGB and IR camera to the ground control van. Object detection worked very well. Only challenge was the limited bandwith of the LTE connection because we streamed three (3) RTSP videos live (IR, RGB and AI-ML output). Special thanx for acting as "rescue targets" floating in the water for several hours to Christian Lautenbach from kiteguide-spo.de  and Kevin Peklar. Looking forward to the next successful test.
