Aquiline Drones Debuts First Anti-Graffiti Drone in Nationwide Campaign
Published

Aquiline Drones Embarks on Nationwide Campaign – Using Disruptive Technologies: Drones and AI cameras to Fight Unsightly Graffiti.
HARTFORD, Conn., Feb. 15, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Aquiline Drones Embarks on Nationwide Campaign – Using Disruptive Technologies: Drones and AI cameras to Fight Unsightly Graffiti.
Unsightly graffiti is a menace to communities and metropolises, worldwide! More than just a nuisance, graffiti is a form of vandalism, making it a crime that devalues property and consumes valuable police time and other public resources.
Moreover, graffiti negatively affects communities by creating a perception of neglect or disorder, lowering property values, deterring businesses, and contributing to feelings of insecurity among residents, especially if associated with gang activity or offensive content.
Globally, cities like Sydney invest in anti-graffiti technologies such as surveillance cameras and protective coatings on walls, to prevent graffiti before it happens. Clearly however, these efforts, while seemingly progressive, prove inadequate by only scratching the surface. As is the case with graffiti tagging, the problem recurs – even increasing and likely fostering retaliation by taggers.
Thankfully, a more complete solution has emerged. An absolute game-changer in the fight against graffiti by taking it one step farther and aiming to largely eradicate it. This timely solution blends key technologies – smart cameras, artificial intelligence (AI) and graffiti drones…yes, drones, ready to get the job done once and for all!
CT-based Aquiline Drones (AD) – a drone technology enterprise, has debuted the only proven solution available today. that is a complete and highly effective technology solution that can reduce the recurrence of graffiti by a factor of 10, especially in harder-to-reach areas.
Having successfully incubated this solution aided by prime customer, Washington State Department of Transportation (WSDOT), AD now embarks on a nationwide campaign targeting States, and their municipalities and regions to significantly reduce the occurrence of this problem.
“If technology benefits society, I say let it. And let’s be deliberate about success while we’re at it!” says Barry Alexander, Founder and CEO of Aquiline Drones. “Time to make America clean again” Alexander continues.
Currently, graffiti-based vandalism is on a sharp increase in America – globally too, costing an estimated $12 billion (in the US alone) in annual cleanup expenses! Even worse is that this expense is incurred by public entities and thus, taxpayers. In most cases, residents also incur costs to remove graffiti from their private property.
Disruptive Technology that Works – AD’s Graffiti Abatement (GA) solution
AD’s GA solution is results-oriented. Its primary goal is to significantly reduce graffiti tagging incidences nationwide by a factor of 10. As an example, in Seattle, Washington, a city of approximately 755,000 residents, city agencies removed 5,000 graffiti tags in 2019 and 8,700 in 2021. In 2023, KIRO-TV reported that there were around 20,000 graffiti reports in 2021 – a sharp and uncontrollable increase!
Using the city of Seattle again as an example, the city’s Graffiti Nuisance Ordinance requires property owners to remove graffiti within 10 days of receiving a notice. If graffiti is gang or hate related, it must be removed within 48 hours. Property owners who don’t remove graffiti within the 10-day window may face fines of up to $5,000.
Applying AD’s turnkey GA solution to the city of Seattle and its stats, would probably realize a reduction in the number of graffiti tags from 20,000 (in 2023) to 2,000 while remaining sensitive to societal expression through acceptable forms of street art. Contextually, while Seattle has an ordinance against graffiti tagging, the city does recognize the value of street art and has commissioned murals from local artist.
AD’s solution starts with surveillance. Single or multiple sites can be monitored simultaneously, equipped with security cameras. AD’s cameras are solar powered, cloud connected via LTE and have night vision IR (infrared), with its live feed stored both locally and on AD’s proprietary cloud and backed up on Amazon Web Services (AWS). AD’s AI framework accesses these camera feeds and uses Machine Vision to analyze the data to detect any human object(s) in the vicinity of the monitored sites. This refined model uses AI detection to identify specific acts such as graffiti painting, other illegal acts, loitering, etc. The camera data is then analyzed and persons detected in the vicinity triggers email notifications to email addresses supplied by the Department of Transportation (DoT) and sent to Traffic Management Centers (TMCs) and law enforcement. Analyzed data is stored and made available to the client(s). Data transmission and storage occurs within the US, on local servers.
AD’s framework utilizes domestic LTE carriers along with AWS (Amazon’s cloud) as backup to the AD Cloud, which provides the highest levels of data security.
AD’s GA solution is broken down into two distinctive phases: 1) Surveillance/monitoring, analytics, and push notification; and 2) Graffiti abatement using AD’s Spartacus Endure drones.
For surveillance, AD uses AI enabled smart cameras to provide real time monitoring while computing on the edge, to detect occurrences of graffiti and vandalism. For suspected incidents, AD uses highly accurate computer vision and machine learning on the AD Cloud to further eliminate false positives. This process is highly autonomous and strongly protective of all personally identifiable information (PII) from the processed data.
Graffiti Abatement (GA). At center stage of the solution is AD’s anti-graffiti drone – the Spartacus Endure, Power-Washing, Painting & Graffiti drone, which is the most versatile in its class. The Endure is the only drone on the market capable of performing multiple challenging tasks using the same drone by simply swapping out its payload (its undercarriage).
Customers can choose from an assortment of payloads: spray bars, straight lances, carrying baskets, winches, cameras/sensors, seed spreaders/hoppers, ag spraying tanks and bars, droppers (used for lifeguard pontoon drops), etc. to have an absolute workhorse like no other!
“Think of the Endure as your trusted John Deere tractor. Change out the bucket and off you go.” Alexander continues.
The versatility of AD’s Spartacus Endure drone is what makes it unique. It’s literally unmatched, giving users’ ultimate freedom and flexibility. This versatility is highly-beneficial to those customers already owning an Endure drone, for example, increasing its utility by targeting seasonal work.
Existing Endure owners or prospective customers wanting to start their own power-washing or painting and graffiti-removal business now have the right tool to target these never-ending graffiti removal contracting opportunities. On the public sector (municipalities) side of things, customers can perform different tasks within their jurisdiction, using the same drone.
Imagine municipalities across its many regions using the same drone or a fleet of drones simultaneously, to target multiple sites for graffiti removal and then switch out payloads if desired, in three minutes or less to go power-wash overhead retro reflective highway signage, or to go de-ice electrical pylons, etc. The list goes on, and on!
In his final report, Mike Gauger, Maintenance Superintendent at WASDOT and program visionary adds “The drone program provides a very effective additional tool for graffiti removal in locations where it can mitigate the risk of employee injury due to the graffiti’s precarious locations. It also provides a more cost-effective way to handle graffiti removal from all locations where specialized equipment is required”
Mike concludes by saying “The use of drones to remove graffiti in dangerous and difficult locations is also a better use of resources. It takes less time to remove the graffiti with a drone compared to traditional methods, which deters “retagging.” His story is shared in this short, but one of many, YouTube videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iVbHRiLVveE
AD provides the entire solution and gives customers the option to pick from an a-la-carte menu:
Drones and associated hardware (built in-house – made in America, Hartford CT.)
Surveillance cameras/hardware (vendor supplied). Back-end digital dashboard, AI analytics, push notifications, etc. (all done by AD)
Training (online, in-house and onsite option). Online training: AD’s proprietary online prep course (Flight to the Future or F2F). Watch YouTube video tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hgd0zD-mcw4&t=17s
