RESOLVE DEVELOPS AI-BASED CONSERVATION AND SECURITY SYSTEMS TO PROTECT WILDLIFE, HUMANS AND INDUSTRIAL ASSETS.

RESOLVE has developed a range of AI-based technologies to protect wildlife, forests, people and industrial resources through the use of camera-based alert-systems that can detect and accurately identify intrusions before they can cause harm or disturbance.

Partner story

RESOLVE is a non-profit organisation that forges sustainable solutions to critical environmental, social, and health, challenges, providing tangible benefits for everything from climate change to sustainability and asset protection to healthcare, with a specific focus on conservation.

In partnership with Intel and CVEDIA, RESOLVE offers a range of AI-based technologies to protect wildlife, forests, people and industrial resources through camera-based alert systems that can detect and accurately identify intrusions. Leveraging mobile satellite communications networks means this vital information can be transmitted to even the most remote areas.

Key benefits

  • A low-cost, durable, highly reliable surveillance and deterrence product to detect interference
  • Near real-time text and image alerts allow for more effective decision making and preventative action
  • Embedded AI detects humans, vehicles, wildlife and filters out irrelevant images and noise, preserving battery life and minimising data transmission
  • Quick and easy to setup, with miniaturised cameras strategically placed to prevent theft and vandalism
  • Systems strategically placed on chokepoints of access routes enable limited monitoring forces to act efficiently to protect vast areas
  • Connectivity anywhere via cellular, LoRa or satellite networks

Features

  • Camera-based alert systems featuring motion-triggered camera and power-optimised AI/CV pipelines
  • Portable satellite modem provides real-time connectivity to transmit alerts anywhere
  • CVEDIA’s AI models run on the camera to detect target objects and filter out irrelevant images
  • Operates in a low-power "sleep" mode until woken up by the passive infrared sensor (PIR sensor) – enabling batteries to last three+ years in the field on a single charge
  • Onboard pipelines of AI models and CV functions powered by Luxonis' Gen2 DepthAI
  • Pipeline Builder can be updated or interchanged for a different detector (e.g. logging trucks, wildlife species) with a simple swap of the microSD card
  • Advanced AI models that allow TrailGuard AI to detect target objects or species in the day or in low-light conditions

User scenarios

  • Prevent poaching and deforestation before intruders cause harm
  • Effectively manage human-wildlife conflict near urban areas and identify extinction-endangered species
  • Detect intruders near valuable industrial and mining assets or agricultural livestock
  • Monitor illegal bycatch of threatened marine species
  • Minimise battery usage and data transmission rates while monitoring remote industrial infrastructure
“We are delighted to join the ELEVATE program which enables us to expand the reach of our solutions to help meet a growing demand for AI-enabled conservation technology, preserving wildlife and critical infrastructure to the benefit of communities everywhere. 
Through ELEVATE, we have established a trusted partnership and can leverage reliable, global connectivity to deliver our “on the edge” solutions as well as scaling up our AI security systems.”
