Automated explosive ordnance detection and identification
Thanks to support from the European Union and partnerships with national emergency mine action and state EOD actors, Tech 4 Tracing is leading in the development and deployment of drone- and mobile-based computer vision identification algorithms for a range of surface explosive objects, including cluster sub-munitions, scatterable mines, grenades, mortars and other ordnance.
In 2022â23, T4Tâs workflow pioneered the combination of 3D photogrammetry, photorealistic 3D models and custom-made 3D-printed replicas to create synthetic data to train AI detection algorithms for objects in a range of conditions and landscapes.
Since 2023, T4T has created a significant asset library of custom-built ordnance object models and project-originated critical benchmark data to refine and improve the accuracy of our detectors. As of late 2024, the project is scaling-up its operations and its partnerships with national actors who are deploying its detectors, which are increasingly integrated into workflows.
