An update from @drogersuk.bsky.social on some of our historical shorthand research, which we have been building AI/ML models to assist with. A shorthand bible from 1687 and the difficulty of symbols for very long phrases!: copperhorse.co.uk/further-work... #palaeography #earlymodern #ai #history #ml
Dexter was a cat that was loved by everyone in Windsor. He was sadly killed by a car a couple of weeks ago. Please support this fund raiser to help build a statue of him in the town: www.gofundme.com/f/dexter-win... #windsor #dexter #catsofbluesky
We are currently working on other use cases and applications of this model as it has proven highly effective!
This is particularly good as a belt-and-braces approach to ensuring that vehicles are not making poor decisions based on being setup to fail in the real-world physical environment. Our solution ultimately improves the overall safety on roads and motorways.
Applications of this AI model aim at enhancing the security of ADAS and autonomous vehicles by automatically detecting defaced or manipulated signs, sending a signal to the vehicle that the sign should not be trusted.
While trained and tested using a Copper Horse heavily modified mod of a driving simulator game, it proved efficient and accurate on real-world dash cam footage, further confirming the potential of using digital twins to effectively train AI systems.
🚗 Traffic Sign Defacement Recognition:
This model is composed by a YOLO-based object detector interfaced with two Convolutional Neural Networks.
At Copper Horse, we have been engineering AI models to be used for security testing – but these are also models that have real-world purposes! Here’s what we’ve been working on:
That’s a wrap for the English rounds: Pendle Ski Club & The Hill at Rossendale races in our GBR Series. It’s been amazing to see the pinnacle of grassroots ski racing, and we’re so proud to sponsor the future of UK skiing. Two race days left in the 2025 series. ⛷️ Stuart Brown Photography 📸
The Copper Horse GBR Series returns this weekend on the outdoor slopes! 🎿
📍 Saturday, 21 June – Pendle Ski Club, Clitheroe
📍 Sunday, 22 June – The Hill, Rossendale
Good luck to all participants—we’ll see you there with plenty of activities and puzzles to challenge you!
Despite the challenges, Sophia’s determination and skill have been nothing short of inspiring. We couldn’t be prouder to sponsor her journey and can’t wait to see her back on track soon!

resulting in some damage to her Mini. But true to Sophia’s resilience, she’s already gearing up for the next race at Gurston Down Speed Hillclimb next month with repairs underway (new bumper, bonnet, brakes, and radiator incoming!).
It was a challenging day with very wet track conditions, but Sophia didn’t let that stop her—she managed to shave 2 seconds off her time between the first and second practice runs! Unfortunately, Run 3 didn’t go as planned. A brake failure at Esses led to an unfortunate encounter with the Armco...
We were pleased to be at Prescott Speed Hill Climb to watch Sophia McCall on her amazing debut last week, driving her R53 Mini Cooper S as part of the British Women Racing Drivers’ Club and the IntoSpeed program supported by Motorsport UK. 🚗💨
Mark Neve and David Rogers MBE attended the BridgeAI Annual Showcase in St Pauls, London with TechWorks AI’s John Moor & Gareth Richards. Talking to the participants about how to secure AI models and had the privilege of meeting many people from different sectors!
Our CEO, @drogersuk.bsky.social MBE, has been inducted into the CFCA Hall of Fame, recognising his decades of dedication, expertise, and contributions to fraud and security in telecoms. 🏆 We'd also like to congratulate Dieter Zeller who received the CFCA Lifetime Achievement Award.
The Copper Horse GBR Series is off to a flying start in both the indoor and outdoor races. ⛷️ Our CEO, @drogersuk.bsky.social joined the skiers and spectators on the slopes of Llandudno last weekend. We also hosted activities for the children and spectators, such as lock picking and puzzle solving.
As we prepare for this year's Copper Horse GBR Series, we're pleased to launch a poster for the event that will be available to buy at the races! We'll be at Chill Factore on the 10th and 11th of May weekend, come and meet our team and talk all things cyber security, automotive and AI!
The Copper Horse GBR series 2025 is nearly here ⛷
We’re excited to announce that we will be supporting the series again this season 🙌

It was a pleasure to be at Bletchley Park to show off our work on deciphering 17th century shorthand using AI that we have developed. It's a work in progress and we intend to open source it in order to help historians read the tens of thousands of unread pages of shorthand! #earlymodern #ai
It is very much a cat sticker day today
Out and about with the car hacking rig today, now with 43" screens...
This will be at @bsideslondon.bsky.social this weekend. #CarHackVillageUK
