Tomas Becklin, CTO and co-founder of Flox, joins our podcast to explain how AI, acoustics and edge computing can reduce conflicts between wildlife and critical infrastructure.
Flox builds systems that identify animals in real time and play sounds they instinctively understand, guiding behavior without fences, barriers or harm. In this conversation, Tomas walks through the technical and commercial realities of deploying autonomous hardware in extreme environments, from reindeer near Arctic roads to wildlife risks at airports.
✅ Guiding animal behavior with sound, not fences
✅ Why edge beats cloud in safety-critical settings
✅ From drones to deployable hardware
✅ Hardware built for cold, battery life and speed
✅ Selling to airports, rail and road operators
✅ Scaling and funding hardware across Europe and the US
