Ridderkerk, South-Holland, June 08 2022 – We are proud to announce that we have been granted the MIT AI R&D subsidy for our project ‘Real-time Video Analytics on Drones’ from the Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland (RVO; [Eng]: Netherlands Enterprise Agency). Our project focuses on the development and application of edge-based Artificial Intelligence algorithms to automatically detect any temporal and spatial events in video footage by the use of drones. Some use cases for this project include:
These real-time solutions are provided with the combination of Drones or Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV’s), and Machine Learning algorithms. Our AI-based Real-time Video Analytics solution for Drones monitors various objects and distinguishes certain activities or behaviours that may result in an alert or a reaction from the user by detecting and analysing attributes such as movement or behavioural patterns as well as events such as sudden burst of flame or smoke, suspicious moving individuals, anomalous driving behaviours and so much more. Details and facets in the sheer volume of data can be missed by human eyes. This project will see us work together with Dutch Drone Company, one of the few companies situated in The Netherlands that is fully approved to operate Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs).
Our Real-Time Video Analytics Solution for Drones makes Computer Vision and Machine Learning accessible to businesses and infrastructure with drones. Amongst the many benefits of Real-time Video Analytics on Drones are:
AI-integrated Drones can also be deployed to provide assistance during Beyond Visual Line of Sight (BVLOS) flights and operations. This is where a drone is operated without the need for a pilot keeping constant visual line of sight on the aircraft. However, the Drone is operated by using Remote Pilot Station (RPS) / Ground Control Station (GCS) sensors. Drone inspections, when combined with machine learning algorithms gives operators greater insight into data which, otherwise may remain undetected when inspected by the human eye. This ensures efficient data processing.
The MIT AI R&D subsidy is awarded to companies for the creation and innovation of products, product services, or services in collaboration with other SMEs which contribute to developing Artificial Intelligence (AI). The European Commission defines AI as ‘systems that display intelligent behavior by analyzing their environment and taking action (with a certain degree of independence) to achieve specific goals’.
“We are honoured to be on the receiving end of this subsidy, and we are extremely appreciative of the support from the Rijksdienst voor Ondernemend Nederland (RVO). This will help us commence our next step in the quest to revolutionise business operations”, exclaimed Koen de Jong, CEO and Co-founder of supplai. “The integration of AI and machine learning algorithms is the future of automation and robotics. This partnership approach with Dutch Drone Company will help provide the most efficient aerial solutions for drone operators and business processes”, commented de Jong.

The Dutch Drone Company was founded with the objective of providing solutions to the industry for faster and safer inspections. One of these solutions is the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). DDC is specialised in digital inspections, surveying and analysis of industrial assets with unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) or robots and processes this data into, for example 3D models and point clouds. With the generated digital twins and artificial intelligence, organisations are able to plan and manage their industrial assets immediately, accurately, safely and efficiently. To provide the highest level of service to their clients, Dutch Drone Company partnered with multiple specialists who enhance UAV deployment.
