Description

In this presenation from Day 3 of the #SwarmOrangeSummit, Julien Bouteloup presents Flying Carpet, a decentralised charging station for drones. In the talk he showcases that Flying Carpet is much more than it looks at first sight since it mixes AI and blockchain in a very unique and clever way.

A

So I'm going to make quick presentation about this project called flying carpet. I would try to not do like too much advertising about the project, but try to focus and show how this product can be connected to swamp.

A

So little bit of myself forgotten my Stojko engineering and my specialization was AI machine learning. The state thousand nine I've been building different project to run AI and blockchain over the past nine years. First, art doesn't an identity system. Now the project call ID box. This one was used for blockchain remittance for a warrant for trading energy as well, and it's now backed by the United Nation that was last year.

A

It's using different part of the developing country in emerging market I want to talk about this project. Actually, first stopped working on in 2009, so I'm a developer I've been building being the editing for programming for the past, since I'm 14 I work for security, defense, company building autonomous weapons to protect people I'm not sure with that.

A

But um so this is actually my cities in a state where I was focused and building autonomous robots that they could use, reinforcement, learning to go to the campus and then take picture of the campus to upload the picture. Online and people could buy the picture and then the robot could actually charge himself.

A

So now, you've got access to drones and all the staff I thought about building something for this out choice at enormous network, so dysfunctional as autonomous vehicle. That is basically probable. I am like state channel at the moment. Using micro readin got some VR, AR and AI sort of busy wards, but we got actually we got a three proof of concepts, so I can show you some demos and videos so ready implemented.

A

So the idea is to like for the I'm gonna, try to make you very fast. So you've got like people that have John, for example, but they never use it more than two or three times because of John is super cool. You take a picture of the high definition of the family, but then let's say it: you live to John somewhere.

A

So the idea is to use the existing network of drones and, as a drone owner, you can buy this piece of hardware that we develop on Amazon you plug in into the drone and we're just done. You turn into an autonomous. They drawn you basically QR code, the drone with your crypto wallet or flying carpet wallet, and then the drone will be autonomous and then you've got the de flying carpet.

A

Flying carpet is not it's not a real flying carpet, flying carpets, decentralized, autonomous docking charging station that you scan and you link to your crypto white and you can place it in your balcony or your garden, and then you basically used for charging any drone on the market and you've got developers that can build third-party services and also businesses that can access algorithm. This is basically the the the current implementation.

A

The protocol that we were working on at the moment was developed like in last year, so, but we can replace with swamp, that's something we have been discussing with Victor but use micro Vaden for doing transaction between the drone and the flying carpet. So, for example, you can be sitting in your office and then you're flying carpet. I will tell you, okay, you've your your flying carpet today charge 10 drones. You don't know for what we actually charge.

A

10 drones and your drone was used five times for something you don't know for what, but you actually generate four hundred four hundred US dollar, for example. So we've got like some different kind of security inside, for example, like Xerox for doing computational and also tribute for doing computational walk inside the game. One developer can build application, I'm gonna, get to that so I'm, just gonna show you a quick MVP we're using a Tesla battery car for charging on the on the on the flying carpet.

A

It's using wireless charger, so you got like solar panel. You can find a video online, it's bit geeky, but about me building the flying carpet for about two weeks. You gotta hedge hundred water. Now the flying carpet can charge a drone in less than 15 minutes.

A

You got 4G communication and must be hi, so you can actually see how this kind of device and the drone of the flying carpet could be part of a swamp protocol, and then you can have Discovery node, for example, because the protocol it needs to find that the drone that has a specific hardware on the top of it and also the flying carpet, has a specific power that you can have. You can use, for example, academy discovery node to the protocol. I'm going to show you a demo quickly.

A

This isn't my garden in London, so it's always. We've got all ready to prove flying carpet a distance about 70 meters. It of each has been flying for the past few months in London.

A

The product is already that I raise money without doing nice viewers whatsoever, but you can see that drone is actually flying and the drone is using very enforcement learning to detect, based on the GPS location of the flying carpet, to take the flying carpet from 50-100 meters away because GPS location are not very precise. So it's about like 50 or 50 20 or 50 meters, and this actually no one is actually controlling the drone. The drone was is doing using a gaming engine, basically learning how to land and takeoff.

A

That was the first algorithm that was built to the protocol.

A

The solar panel yeah, the solar panel, did the idea, is you can place the flying carpet everywhere in a countryside of balcony or anywhere and I will be used for charging the flying carpet. Obviously, if the charging, the the stars just too small a solar panel, so it will take probably like two days to charge the battery, but you can also plug it into your power power wall to charge it you can see here in inside this.

A

This is Tesla battery car I can zoom or I can show you later, but you got the the battery pack, how the big race and.

A

Okay, okay, this is the market. This is the first application that we've been trying to build. So basically, this one is for businesses, so they can access different sort of party services, for example the business that want to do rooftop analysis or power line analysis. Can you do like on on the app you can show you the app on the phone. They will tell you okay, this would take about 15 16 kilometres of flying.

A

700 10 megabyte of data you'll be using five different flying carpet an average speed of 80 miles an hour, and then it will cost you about. Eighty two is this: is the that what we can use with Islam as well like Discovery analytics, because you don't actually need to know where are the flying carpet?

A

You want to keep them anonymous, but you also want to show analytics to people, so this actually screens show you that if you place the flying carpet in different part of the city, you you can actually increase your revenue by two hundred and sixty eight percent, and you can make zero point to eat its per square meter or 0.01. Its per megabyte of data you be generated so for that I've found.

A

It's also a good example, because the question is who owns the data when the drone is flying I'm talking about John because easier to imagine the concept where we can also have autonomous car whatsoever. For example, we already are working prototypes with drones.

A

This is dashboard for business, so you can actually have your swamp, your fleet of drones flying and you can see light okay, see analytics about you, your your different fleet of drones and the main idea being this project. That is really my focus. We got about like twelve people now in the company and six people are very focused on machine learning in the eye, so it's got like a huge project and not two guys, and also one guy from Microsoft was running.

A

So it's very like to give the gaming industry the ability to teach shown through a game, so he as a gamer, you can build any any application to your game and basically the game will be useful doing like collision analysis, because you don't want to work for the ethics. You don't want to build application, then then it push into the real world for killing people or harming anyone. So what you do you actually use the game to test.

A

So if someone like energy provided as a developer, you think that you, if you build an algorithm that would do power power line analysis, and you would actually make a lot of money. Then you can actually do it. What you do on a token economics, you stick some token. You build the the algorithm to the game and we're using machine learning, reinforcement, learning to actually teach.

A

So what you do is just fly over one line, and you see: okay, repeat this for the second line, and then you've got people that can actually upload data for teaching the under neural network. And then, when you stake you're talking, you put the algorithm.

A

If the algorithm passed, the collision analysis platform, then is actually sent to validation board and those validators can actually watch the video and they can compare the video if the drone is actually doing what the little purse you said you were supposed to do so after you pass all those different faces, then the application is then pushed into the the real world.

A

We got. One application got a few different to the concept, one in Papua New Guinea for counting the number of coconuts in the plantation, so we actually removed the middleman of the guy. Have the massive like prediction market, where they? Actually, the farmer can be the ownership of the data, counting how many the crop estimation of the plantation over the next six months. For example, we didn't learn the registry for invasion market.

A

We also have we're going to announce in New York next week, but a proof concept that we going to build in Kenya for tracking the torture that people trying to kill the elephant. So the drone can fly and we can actually try the poacher and then call the police.

A

So this is, our demo can accelerate. Actually you can now you can. You can call the flying company will show you different of information and the address where you actually look at it, and so the protocol is would be responsible, for example, with swarm. You can do like discovery analysis. You want to discover where are the different flying carpet? Where are the different drone without knowing yourself where they are?

A

Oh yeah, this is not actually built, it was just for fun, but this is my classic car I'm just ringing you for for fun, but and actually plays the flying carpet on the car, and the idea is, is actually a real flying carpet. It's like maybe you're driving flying carpet, but so the idea is when you drive in the countryside, you park your car and this can actually be used for charging. Jones I've got something few more demo. This is the actual team. At the moment.

A

What we focus on I mean the focus is really on the AI machine learning part, but we connecting to the blockchain through smart contract. The idea is really to show that using blocks in there.

A

You can actually good do good, do good and it's actually less dangerous to have a drone being from being driving, but a machine algorithm, because you know that the smart contract, if you see drones flying but you know that the stone are being controlled by as open-source smart contract open source code and there is no risk rather than having someone actually control the drone and can actually get other glitch and and do something bad.

A

We updating the new, odd way of the flying carpet, so be a flying carpet version to you and we planning to go on commercial and by the end of the year, but the flying carpet is just 15 or 20 percent of the idea. The rest is variant on the algorithm and yeah I know if you can't is not 12, because the rest are not developers.

A

If you have any question, you can join the community or you can join the group of the programming group github or something so any question yeah like to be really quick, there's something very quick. This is actually because the ID box was a nonprofit foundation that so now I'm actually linking the flying carpet into the project and what we're building we're actually replacing, for example, this to access a village it takes about six or eight hours driving.

A

So what we're doing with placing flying carpet in different villages in an emerging market I can Papua New, Guinea and then those villages. What we've got I know. If you know the project giveth, it's actually even it's. Actually it's a bit better, because what we do is like we actually put a smart contract responsible for the entire village and because those people are registering to the smart contract.

A

So then, if you place a flying carpet inside the village, what you can do you can, when the drone comes and fly and fly and charge inside the village, the monies are generated by the business. I mean the business pay for that. The money is actually spread among all the people in the village, so you can incentivization model yeah.
