OptoAI is an embedded AI software technology stack coupled to custom and mission-specific drone hardware. The AI-powered algorithms are developed for multi-modal applications such as defect & anomaly detection, spectral analysis, and ISR applications based on key features. OptoAI includes embedded GPU hardware, state of the art AI models, image processing SDKs, and an augmented […]

A contract awarded as part of a broader TSA automation initiative resulted in the development of next-generation security screening systems by leveraging 3D deep learning-based methods. The system is uniquely developed to detect critical threats in luggage and containers, targeting the automatic detection of assembled and disassembled items, such as grenades, explosives, guns, etc. Detection […]

SFL Scientific designed and implemented a state-of-the-art (SOTA) petabyte-scale monitoring platform for intelligence gathering on 1B+ documents, passages, and communication records with mixed-language capabilities for Asia-Pacific languages. Our system provides an advanced search and answers query capability, utilizing key extraction pipelines, anomaly detection, content summarization, image and text search ranking, and geotagging capabilities for event […]

Business Challenge An energy provider approached SFL about disaggregating overall household energy consumption data into constituent appliance energy expenditures because the energy provider wished to expand its service offerings to customers.  Disaggregating energy data simply means converting raw energy usage data into a list outlining when each individual appliance (i.e. a toaster, refrigerator, heater, etc) […]

Background The Guided Wave (GW) nondestructive testing is used to inspect the engineering structures and to detect wall thinning and discontinuities in piping in electrochemical, oil, gas, and other industries. The ultrasonic guided wave has the advantage of traveling a long distance with little loss in energy. It has the ability to inspect hidden and […]

Background Vibration analysis is often used to detect potential faults in rotating machinery and structures (e.g., bridges, turbine blades) by evaluating velocity or acceleration data measured from inherent vibrations in the machine or structure of interest. In one nondestructive testing engagement, SFL Scientific utilized 100,000 vibration-testing samples of velocity data that were synthetically generated to […]

Segmenting key customer markets to better understand its customers to guide decision making and ultimately drive sales.

Business Challenge Many new companies start out with a clever idea on how to gather and use data but lack the knowledge base to analyze it themselves. The ability of these companies to succeed at their stated goals depends on how well they use their data. Effective algorithms for handling this data allow companies to provide […]
