According to Amac News: Based on the EAD announcement, the goal of this collaboration is to transform the restoration of mangrove forests in Abu Dhabi using artificial intelligence and automated robotics.
This agreement was signed in the first session of the International Conference on Conservation and Restoration of Mangrove Forests (IMCRC) by Faisal Al-Banaei, Advisor to the President of the UAE on Strategic Research and Advanced Technologies and Secretary-General of the Advanced Research Council, and Sheikha Salem Al-Zahiri, Secretary-General of EAD.
The main focus of this collaboration is the application of advanced robotics based on artificial intelligence to create more data-driven and efficient mangrove restoration. These technologies help reduce environmental degradation while implementing global climate change solutions.
Under this strategic alliance, EAD will provide expert ecological guidance to ensure that revitalization projects are aligned with Abu Dhabi's unique environmental landscape.
Meanwhile, Nabat will lead the development and deployment of advanced technologies, including artificial intelligence and automated robotics solutions, to optimize and facilitate mangrove restoration efforts.
The collaboration highlights Abu Dhabi's role as a regional and international hub for technological innovation and demonstrates the emirate's commitment to integrating artificial intelligence and robotics in various sectors, including environmental protection.
"Mangroves are vital to the health of the planet and Nabat is committed to using advanced technology solutions to protect them," El-Banaei said.
It is said that this project will have extensive benefits for Abu Dhabi and the global environment. For Abu Dhabi, this move reinforces its position as a leading emirate that uses artificial intelligence and automated robotics to solve critical ecological challenges.
Globally, this collaboration is an example of how technology can alleviate environmental challenges and encourage greater investment in sustainability-based innovation.
