NVIDIA news, February 16th, 2023

Nonprofit detects threats to pangolins, rhinos and more than 50 other species in real time, using the NVIDIA Jetson platform and Triton Inference Server.

The video above represents one of the first times that a pangolin, one of the world's most critically endangered species, was detected in real time using artificial intelligence.

A U.K.-based nonprofit called Conservation AI made this possible with the help of NVIDIA technology.
