Last week, Jeffery Montgomery and Lily Raccasi introduced ???????? (Simple Pattern Target Recognition) to an incredibly engaged audience at #GORP Demo Night. They shared how ???????? is transforming firearm training through gamification, real-time feedback, and data-driven insights—making it more accessible and enjoyable for all skill levels while offering the precision and accuracy that users need to improve. ?? Similar to how Topgolf transformed golf into something anyone can enjoy, #SPTR takes what is often seen as technical and exclusive and turn it into something approachable, engaging, and effective for everyone. ?? ??Highlights from the presentation??: ?? ???????????????? ???????????????? ????????????????????: SPTR brings a competitive, interactive, and social element to training that encourages skill-building in an engaging way. ?? ????????-???????? ????????????????: Like seeing your golf stats at Topgolf, SPTR tracks every shot and gives instant data to refine and improve your accuracy and performance. ?? ????????-???????????? ????????????????: SPTR's cloud-based analytics provide actionable insights for individual training and business intelligence for ranges and manufacturers. We’re grateful to the GORP community and Office of Entrepreneurship and Innovation for this opportunity to showcase how we’re bringing innovation to firearm training. ?? A huge thanks to our team and everyone who supports our mission of "???????????????? ?????????????? ????????????." #FireWatchAI #TechStartup #FirearmTraining #FirearmInnovation #AI #ComputerVision #OutdoorRecreation #AccuracyThroughVision

???? ???????????????? ???????????? ????. ???????????????????? ????: ?? ?????????? ??????????????????! We’ve all seen ???????????????????? ???? make headlines—it’s the tech behind AI-created art, automatic text generators, and even chatbots. It’s creative, exciting, and shaping industries by generating new content from existing data. But at ??????????????????????, we focus on a different aspect, spcifically ???? ???????????????? ????????????, to enhance firearm training and deliver real-time insights to boost your shooting skills. But how does this differ from ???????????????????? ????? Let's break it down: ?? ???? ???????????????? ???????????? focuses on ???????????????????????? ????????-???????? ?????????????????????? ???? ???????????? ????????. Think of it as "eyes" for a machine that detects, analyzes, and processes images and videos. At FireWatchAI, we use it in our ???????? (Simple Pattern Target Recognition) system, which detects bullet impacts, analyzes shot patterns, and helps improve marksmanship through real-time feedback. It's all about precision, accuracy, and data-driven skill-building. ?? ???????????????????? ????, on the other hand, is the creative force that’s capable of ???????????????????? ?????? ?????????????? like images, text, or even code by learning from large data sets. It's particularly valuable in tasks where creativity and productivity is needed, such as marketing materials, creative design, or data augmentation. While AI Computer Vision provides insights by "seeing," Generative AI creates something new from existing and historical data. Two distinct AI powerhouses transforming the startup industry in different ways! ??

Last Friday, ?????????????????????? joined the biggest celebration of Northwest Arkansas' startup ecosystem: #StartupCrawl. This event, hosted by Startup Junkie , was a great opportunity for us to showcase our company and connect with the vibrant community of local entrepreneurs shaping the future of #NWA. ?? At our booth, we unveiled our ???????? prototype and invited visitors to take part in a Nerf gun shooting challenge. Participants had 3 tries to hit the targets and win exclusive discounts for the official SPTR launch. We also hosted a raffle ??? where participants had a chance to win a FireWatchAI backpack, shipped straight to their door—on us! ???? We were pleased with the turnout and the strong interest in what we’re building. Engaging with so many curious and supportive visitors throughout the event was a rewarding experience. It was a successful day of building awareness, making connections, and sharing our vision with the community.
