According to the FAA, Wildlife strikes cost U.S. aviation up to
$300 million every single year and nearly all of it happens in the moments that matter most: takeoff and landing.
BlackDog uses a LiDAR sensor suite and a ZED stereo camera to continuously monitor runway environments. When an obstruction is detected, a CNN machine learning model classifies the potential threat. When a threat is detected the robot autonomously navigates to the location deploying non-lethal, high-frequency sound to safely chase the animal away. No harm to the animal. No risk to ground crew. No interruption to operations.
