FlySight’s cutting-edge AI solutions can playing a key role in enhancing the capabilities of the European Border and Coast Guard. On February 20, Giacomo Fontanelli, Application Specialist at FlySight, will present on 20 February 2025 at the Industry Day organized by Frontex, the European Border and Coast Guard Agency, during the Webex event titled “AI Tools for Seamless Border Checks.”
FlySight’s OPENSIGHT Mission Console, equipped with advanced Automatic Target Recognition (ATR), enhances the situation awareness in border surveillance and search & rescue (SAR) operations. This AI-powered technology enables real-time detection of shipwreck survivors, unauthorized drones, and armored vehicles, ensuring faster response times and increased operational efficiency. Furthermore, OPENSIGHT seamlessly integrates third-party AI solutions, enhancing its adaptability to various mission requirements.
The Frontex’s event highlights the importance of AI in safeguarding Europe’s external borders. Border crossing management requires a continuously evolving technological response to existing and future challenges (e.g. increased passenger flow, different traveller categories impacting queue management, staff shortages, problems with interoperability of systems and technologies, increased and sophisticated identity document fraud). The use of AI tools for Automated Border Control (ABC) systems for repetitive and resource-intensive tasks could allow border guards and Standing Corps officers to work more efficiently and prioritise their most important tasks. The upcoming Industry Day will be an opportunity to demonstrate how the innovative solutions can support border authorities to maintain the delicate balance between leveraging AI’s benefits and addressing its limitations.
FlySight’s AI-driven solutions assist authorities in monitoring vast maritime and land areas, improving threat detection and situational awareness. By leveraging deep learning algorithms and real-time data processing, these technologies are able to support coast guards and border agencies in making informed decisions under critical conditions.
As border security challenges evolve, the demand for intelligent, automated solutions continues to grow. FlySight provides state-of-the-art AI tools that empower border control forces and enhance their operational capabilities.
