Our take

With wildfires becoming an increasing concern across the globe, Pano AI has leveraged innovations in AI and computer vision technology to create an early warning and response system for the destructive phenomenon.

Using high-definition, remote-controllable cameras, its hardware is placed within forests, where it can be human-operated or work passively in scanning mode. The video feed is then analyzed by AI, which alerts authorities if it picks up smoke or fire.

At present, Pano AI is monitoring millions of acres of land. It has enjoyed substantial funding for its technology, has a partnership with T Mobile to utilize its 5G network, and has already helped to mitigate environmental disasters by delivering alerts before the first 911 call.
