Safe Pro Lands U.S. Army Force-on-Force SPOTD AI Detection Role in Q2 2026
Safe Pro Group will equip U.S. Army forces with its SPOTD Edge AI threat detection during a Q2 2026 force-on-force combat exercise following a successful live minefield trial. NODE-X uses over 2.7 million drone images to detect 150+ explosive threats and map 3D terrain at the tactical edge without connectivity.
1. U.S. Army Force-on-Force Exercise Invitation
Safe Pro has been invited to train and equip soldiers with its patented SPOTD Edge AI battlefield threat detection system during a U.S. Army force-on-force combat exercise scheduled for Q2 2026, highlighting the platform’s operational relevance under realistic opposing-force scenarios.
2. NODE-X Edge AI System Capabilities
The backpack-sized NODE-X platform delivers real-time AI threat detection, 3D terrain mapping, orthomosaic generation and automated route planning by analyzing drone imagery directly at the tactical edge without requiring internet or cloud connectivity.
3. Previous Live Minefield Exercise Success
This engagement follows Safe Pro’s recent participation in a live minefield exercise where NODE-X provided rapid drone-based explosive identification and intelligent battlefield mapping, enabling commanders to make critical decisions that enhanced mission success.
4. Dataset and SPOTD Technology
Powered by SPOTD algorithms trained on a dataset of 2.75 million drone images and 49,500 confirmed detections, the system identifies over 150 types of landmines, UXO and other explosive threats and integrates with commercially available drones for scalable deployment.
