Computer Vision Engineer
As part of this initiative, I contributed to two distinct AI models deployed on UAVs (drones) for patrolling Chilean forests. The first model detects wildfires in real-time, triggering instant alerts to an online platform. The second model identifies motorized vehicles and humans in the vicinity, aiding in both rescue operations and culprit identification. I actively participated in dataset creation (labeling bounding boxes for fires, vehicles, and people) and later trained both models using data augmentation and transfer learning techniques. The system’s end-to-end functionality ensures rapid wildfire response while simultaneously gathering critical visual evidence, enhancing both environmental protection and law enforcement efforts.
