About Us
We are a non-profit foundation established in 2023 with the aim of creating a stronger connection between technology and nature.
We use science and technology as tools to promote environmental sustainability
We are based on the following pillars:
- Scientific research
- Creation of cutting-edge technologies
- Real-world applications to promote sustainability
Chile has a long list of environmental issues to address, and we want to help solve them. We believe that multidisciplinary effort and community involvement can lead us to the sustainable development of the country and the region.
Fields of work
We are making progress in
Artificial intelligence
We develop neural network models for multiple needs. We work with the latest technologies and best architectures.
Robotics
We are designing and developing software for small robotic systems with various applications to promote sustainability in the agricultural sector.
Native flora propagation
We sustainably collect seeds of native flora in order to propagate and promote them among local communities.
Ecological restoration
We design and implement restorations at various scales, always with the focus of recovering a degraded environment to its natural state.
Sustainable landscaping
We aim to create human environments that are sustainable in terms of natural resources and the climate reality.
We need to act

Projects
This is a list of some of the projects we are working on
Chilean Fauna Classifier
Neural Networks - ConservationWe use PyTorch and a large amount of labeled data to build a high-performance neural network capable of classifying animals in videos and images.
Low-Cost Irrigation System for Nurseries
IoT - Native Flora PropagationWe design a low-cost irrigation system using embedded systems and a mobile application for control. Designed for forest nurseries.
Automated terrestrial bioacustics
Redes neuronales - EcologíaWe develop models and algorithms capable of studying the biodviersity of a place through audio and generating reports in an automated manner.
Automated marine bioacustics
Redes neuronales - EcologíaWe develop models and algorithms capable of analyzing data generated through hydrophones to obtain valuable information regarding the abundance and distribution of marine species.
AI Wildfire Detector
Neural Networks - IoTWe develop a high-performance artificial intelligence to be mounted on low-cost modular systems. Its goal is to observe and provide early warnings for potential forest fires.
