Flox's innovative technology, often described as a "digital sheepdog," has achieved a remarkable 100% bird-strike deterrence rate at ten Swedish airports by using species-specific signals to safely keep birds away from dangerous areas such as runways.
The breakthrough system combines artificial intelligence with wildlife science to create targeted deterrents that protect both animals, critical infrastructure and human lives. Unlike traditional methods, Flox's technology responds adaptively to different species, ensuring effective and humane wildlife management.
Beyond aviation safety, Flox is expanding its applications through a pilot program with the World Wildlife Federation aimed at deterring wolves from livestock areas, demonstrating the versatility of this pioneering approach to human-wildlife conflict resolution.
"Our technology represents a significant advancement in how we can coexist with wildlife in shared environments," said Flox CEO, Sara Nožková. "We're excited to bring this solution to the United States where it can address similar challenges across multiple sectors."
The March 19th showcase will take place at the Train Depot in Half Moon Bay with representatives from all major Bay Area airports and elected officials in attendance.
