9 More than 200 Army Reserve Soldiers of the 307th Chemical Company, Bell, Calif., trained for the worst of the worst during a nuclear attack scenario as part of Guardian Response, a multi-component Homeland Emergency Response Exercise, held at Muscatatuck Urban Training Center, Ind., April 22.
The complex, mass-casualty training event took place in a hypothetical environment, where a simulated nuclear event occurred in a major US city. The mission included three main objectives handling casualties: recognizance, decontamination and medical treatment.
“As an Army Reserve Soldier, this is a unique opportunity to train for a real-world scenario that would take place state-side where we can help our fellow citizens,” said Sgt. First Class Anthony Butler, Noncommissioned Officer in Charge, 307th Chemical Company. “This is an interesting opportunity because the location is built to mimic a real environment in a large city where a disaster has happened.”
SAFR from RealNetworks, a face recognition and visual analytics platform specializing in computer vision optimized for real-world challenges, announced it was awarded its third Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) contract. This contract enables SAFR to advance its computer vision platform to support perimeter protection and domestic search and rescue missions.
The SBIR contract allows SAFR to enhance its platform to run on an NVIDIA® Jetson AGX Xavier™ based UGV system. The addition of SAFR’s AI-powered analytics on autonomous and semi-autonomous robotic devices provides a force multiplier and a layer of safety for defense and civilian security and emergency services personnel.
Organisations faced a number of unforeseen challenges in nearly every business sector throughout 2020 – and continuing into 2021. Until now, businesses have been on the defensive, reacting to the shifting workforce and economic conditions, however, COVID-19 proved to be a catalyst for some to accelerate their long-term technology and digitalisation plans.
This is now giving decision-makers the chance to take a proactive approach to mitigate current and post-pandemic risks. These long-term technology solutions can be used for today’s new world of social distancing and face mask policies and flexibly repurposed for tomorrow’s renewed focus on efficiency and business optimisation.
For many, this emphasis on optimisation will likely be precipitated by not only the resulting economic impacts of the pandemic but also the growing sophistication and maturity of technologies such as Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML), technologies that are coming of age just when
