Flox Intelligence Develops AI to Deter Wildlife from Infrastructure

Flox Intelligence has developed an artificial intelligence (AI) system designed to reduce hazardous encounters between wildlife and critical infrastructure, including railways, airports, and roads.

The technology utilizes edge computing devices capable of identifying animals and then emitting species-specific sound deterrents. The objective is to enhance transportation safety and prevent accidents caused by animal collisions, protecting both humans and wildlife.

Globally, wildlife-infrastructure collisions result in substantial economic losses and safety risks. In aviation, bird strikes can lead to costly aircraft damage and dangerous situations. On railways and roadways, animals can cause accidents and damage to vehicles.

Flox's solution aims to provide a proactive and effective method for managing this issue. The AI analyzes the environment to identify potential risks, enabling preventive measures before incidents occur. The system is designed to be scalable and adaptable to various environments and infrastructure types.
