ABOUT US?
The Voluntary Intelligence Center (CIV) is a non-profit Civil Association, which was established as a response towards the events that occurred in the devastated areas in Mexico due to a major earthquake on September 19, 2017. The CIV´s primary mission is to develop technology and strategies to help the civilian population during future disasters. In collaboration with the academical sector in Mexico and the world, the CIV has developed 3 mayor projects: Silvana, SIRACT and VATRE. Silvana is virtual three-dimensional scenario simulator to train not only human UAV pilots and strategist, but also neural convolutional networks. This virtual scenario allows the CIV to simulate various disaster scenarios and its consequences. The SIRAC project is related to image recognition systems and robot vision and navigation, this project emphasized in building the brains of the CIV´s UAV assets. VATRE is a project related to the chassis and electromechanical components of the UAV. Today, the CIV is expanding the branches of SIRAC to implement satellite imagery recognition software in order to build and integral symbiotic tool capable of mounting an efficient disaster response for the future.
