IRIS - Image recognition software

Image Recognition Information Software

Locate, identify and mitigate

Maximise safety and efficiency with advanced machine vision software

IRIS, our proprietary machine vision software, enables decision-makers on the ground to accurately, reliably, and rapidly detect threats.

Developed and trained in-house

Our recognition algorithms are trained using high-resolution 3D models based on our extensive hardware collection.

GPS-mapped locations

Identified threats are mapped by dropping GPS markers.

Links to technical information

IRIS delivers real-time threat detection with instant access to in-depth technical information via METIS.

Easy to use and cost-effective

IRIS can be deployed quickly and cost-effectively, using readily available drones and laptops.

Real-time or restrospective analysis

IRIS can process live and pre-recorded video inputs from any platform including static and mobile surveillance systems and a range of autonomous devices.

Other threat types

IRIS is also being trained to detect threats for other scenarios including firearms detection.

" IRIS has the potential to transform the way explosive ordnance is detected on the modern battlefield. Its autonomous capability has the potential to significantly increase the rate and accuracy when detecting explosive ordnance threats across a wide range of battlefield missions. As such IRIS could revolutionise [our] approach to dealing with explosive ordnance threats. An approach [as] revolutionary as the introduction of a hand held metal detector "
