HawkEye 360 Leverages Machine Learning from AWS to Optimize Maritime Security and Vessel Monitoring Capabilities
HawkEye 360, the first commercial company to use formation-flying satellites to create a new class of radio frequency (RF) data and analytics, today announced the development of new maritime security and vessel monitoring capabilities that combine HawkEye 360’s powerful RF geolocation services with a customized machine learning model developed through Amazon Web Services’ (AWS) Machine Learning (ML) Solutions Lab. The capabilities, which will be integrated into the HawkEye 360 portfolio of products, leverage underlying vessel characteristics and behavior to predict whether a given vessel is likely to engage in similar activity as sanctioned vessels.

Ahead of the Super Bowl on Sunday, Amazon Web Services Inc. today shared details about its collaboration with the NFL to enhance the league’s Next Gen Stats game analytics system.
Next Gen Stats enables the NFL to display game statistics during broadcasts to enhance the viewing experience for fans. The system displays information such as the number of yards that a player is expected to carry the football after catching it. Next Gen Stats’ back-end infrastructure is hosted on Amazon Web Services.
The NFL is currently developing enhancements that will enable the system to generate new, more sophisticated insights into player performance. For example, viewers could one day receive an estimate of whether a play could have turned out differently if the quarterback had thrown the football to a different team member. To enable such insights, the NFL and AWS developed an artificial intelligence model capable of performing “defender ghosting,” a project that the cloud giant d
Aella App, Nigeria’s leading single-point financial service and payment solution provider, is working with Amazon Web Services, Inc. (AWS) to empower underbanked individuals through quick access to credit and other financial services using Amazon Rekognition for identity verification.
Amazon Rekognition is a fully managed computer vision service that enables developers to analyze images and videos for a variety of uses, including face identification and verification, media intelligence, custom industrial automation, and workplace safety. x
With the lack of application programming interface (API) infrastructure that allows the real-time verification of government identifications in Nigeria, Aella App is changing the fintech ecosystem by taking advantage of cutting-edge AI technologies and using biometric identity verification on its mobile application, improving the accuracy of facial verification by over 40 per cent.
