Reef Guardians working with Dr. Doug McCauley, UCSB MSI to develop AI Drone that can detect sharks.

The McCauley lab, lead by Dr. Doug McCauley at UCSB's Marine Science Institute, will be using select  RGH footage from a 3 year library collected on Great White shark juveniles. The studies were both commissioned and conducted by Reef Guardians along with CSU Long Beach Shark Lab and filmed by On the Wave Productions. Over 15 of these sharks were tagged and tracked over the past 2 years. The videos will help to create, test and train algorithms that will eventually become integrated into drone software to determine in real time shark recognition and the sharks physical features, primarily length and girth.

 

Standby for more news on this study in in the coming weeks...
