Deep Vision wraps up a second round of funding within the Atlantic Fisheries Fund framework with the successful completion of Phase 2 of the Automatic Detection of North Atlantic Right Whales (NARW) project.

Technology highlights include:

  • Extended to cover wide swath of cetaceans
  • Extended scope to include single image detection of cetaceans - applicable to high resolution (4k, 8k) image capture surveys
  • Demonstrated resilience in varying weather conditions
  • Extended to include evidence of cetacean behaviour
  • Higher signal-to-noise ratio (high probable cetaceans to noise)
  • On-the-fly detection of probable sites of cetacean activity in the absence of visual cetacean confirmation
  • System dynamically differentiates natural oceanic features from probable biologically driven features

The technology has sparked international attention. An overview of the technology is available upon request.
