BIRDSTRIKE
A birdstrike happens every 15 minutes in the world. According to
the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO), 70% of them
go unreported. Thanks to our system, however, every airport
can clearly assess safety condition in the air space under its
responsibility.
In addition, this system automatically activates a distress call, DISTRESS CALL
since it recognizes different species of birds. What is a distress call?
Every bird species has its own call to warn other birds of danger.
Thanks to its precise monitoring, you can learn about By listening to this call, birds of that species will regard that area
as dangerous and thus leave it. Removal is bloodless and long-lasting.
the habits of the birds that live in the area and scare Once this result is obtained, the area will simply need to be monitored,
with a distress call to be activated when needed. This can be done
them away, thus making them understand the place automatically, since we recognize different species. If connected
to a weather station, the system can predict whether birds will be

CLASSIFICATION.
What makes our VENTUR system stand out for its uniqueness
is its method of video analysis. A proprietary convolutional
neural network (CNN) - called BCMES net - has been created
to process the images that cameras acquire with the
following characteristics: moving objects are detected
by the motion detection module and TRACKED by a tracking
algorithm. The obtained tracks are filtered by
a post-processing classifier that analyzes the movement
and then determines what type of object it is - birds in flight,
birds on the ground, drones, or something else. SOME NUMBERS
Tracks that are classified as birds are analyzed by another

classifier to establish the species. There are two classifiers,
(true positive rate) of
one for birds in flight and one for birds on the ground.
The BCMES convolutional network net requires 1/3 of the

DRONES
Drones have recently caused major disruption to several
airports. Ventur has built in hability for drone detection, too.
Drone detection paired with bird detection makes VENTUR
a valuable solution to a real problem that threatens flight
safety every day. VENTUR can recognize a drone, detect
the location of its launch, follow its flight path, and activate
security procedures.
Obastacle detection at airports, critical infrastructure,
it is crucial, Since Urban Air Mobility is becoming real
in a short time, obstacle detection at cities becomes
the frontier of the foresinable future.
