Our take
Arondite confronts the danger posed by landmines, a persistent threat in conflict-ridden regions worldwide. Traditional demining methods are often slow, costly, and perilous, risking the lives of deminers.
To address this critical issue, Arondite pioneers AI-enhanced solutions tailored for defense applications. Its demining service utilises drones equipped with specialised sensors, leveraging AI to detect and safely dispose of landmines.
By combining advanced technology with innovative approaches, Arondite aims to revolutionise the demining process, offering a safer and more efficient alternative to conventional methods. Through its dedication to harnessing AI for humanitarian purposes, Arondite seeks to mitigate the devastating impact of landmines, contributing to global efforts towards peace and security. Seed funding awarded in 2025 exemplifies the growing interest in scalable AI defence solutions, as Arondite seeks to expand its operations.
