The use of modern Artificial Intelligence technologies, such as Machine Learning and Deep Learning, is certainly the future of Artificial Vision applications and products. Indeed, these technologies achieve high performance and high capacity to adapt to very different working conditions.

A.I. Tech has embarked right away on the development of products based on “deep learning”. Today almost all its solutions are based on these approaches; these products are among the very few in the world that can be run directly on the cameras, and are therefore compatible with the few resources available.

It should be noted that developing products based on deep learning does not mean taking one of the famous deep networks, such as Yolo, now also available on the web, and using it on a server, as many do; the resources consumed by these networks are in fact so many that they are unusable on the cameras and in any case only on high-cost servers, even for simple functions.

A.I. Tech designs and builds its own deep networks, thanks to its highly advanced knowledge in this field. A.I. Tech experts have published scientific papers on the subject. Those networks achieve performances very close to those of the best deep networks but reduce the computational resources required by hundreds of times. Try out our products and compare them with the competitors, not least in terms of the cost of the hardware required to operate them.

Our applications are developed using the most advanced technologies based on the principle of virtual coding, which aims to make the application independent of the machine.

Perhaps not everyone is familiar with this concept, but the impact in terms of the quality of the software obtained is enormous. Consider a given product in the catalogue, there should be more than twenty different versions: one for execution on a server, several others for our embedded platforms, and a different one for each of the different cameras on which it can be installed. Virtual code technology makes it possible to have a single implementation that fits all versions, by adopting a virtual machine, appropriately designed.

Eliminating a defect in one version means correcting all versions. When a tested product is released on a new platform, it has the advantage of having been tested for years.

Another very important aspect is efficiency: a product is only made once but is straight forwardly cross-platform. A.I. Tech concentrates all the resources needed to optimise the code enormously, our products are faster than ever and more accurate than ever.

A camera featuring one of our products (plug-in) becomes an intelligent sensor capable of detecting a certain type of event occurring in the monitored scene.

It generates an event that, together with a series of data characterising it, is sent to an external entity responsible for storing and/or managing it. The term Intelligent IoT denotes that the typical IoT architecture described makes use of AI techniques, in particular those used for the understanding of the scene.

This technology provides added value when the IoT object created, i.e. the camera with its plug-in, can be integrated into any other system, of which it becomes the sensory part.

High integrability is therefore the most important requirement and A.I.Tech has invested a great deal of effort to achieve virtually unlimited integrability thanks to the many different protocols developed and available in its architecture.

Indeed, more than twenty notification mechanisms are available (proprietary, from third-party systems, but also based on standard protocols). These mechanisms are implemented within the applications, thus allowing immediate integration with a wide variety of systems.

Embedded technology has been realised by A.I.Tech in two low cost hardware products in the AI-Appliance product line. It consists in a dedicated, efficient and compact system that hosts featured software applications.

This solution offers two major advantages in different contexts: if you have an analogue or digital camera that cannot host on-board software, you can send its video stream into the Appliance which will host the desired plugin; if you have a multi-camera system and need to have a lot of software-intensive features on board, you can decide to buy less computationally powerful cameras and send their streams to a single Appliance, thus saving money!

A.I Tech works has the perfect, integrated solution for you!

In A.I.Tech’s suite of plug-ins, data from cameras analysing the scene are integrated with other data from heterogeneous sources that add value and provide insights to your business.

Such data can be obtained rom many systems that generate and provide data in a wide variety of domains, for instance: from the check-out counters at your shop, from external sensors used in environmental monitoring.
The attractiveness of your point of sale, the convenience of reaching your shop and many other aspects influence the way your business is perceived. What if you offered your customers free parking, or a drink at the nearest bar, or even personalised advertising of your products to your customers?

What you need is a system that manage all the data and is able to measure the impact impact of all these choices. A.I.Tech provides you with a dashboard that collects all the data and an easy-to-use artificial intelligence system that can answer all the above questions.

In difficult choices you are not alone, you have A.I. Tech by your side.

Moving video analysis to the cloud allows you to equip your existing system with “intelligence”, without having to install a (sometimes expensive) server on your site; all A.I. Tech products are “Cloud Ready”.

This means that some processing requiring large computing resources can be performed by a machine placed on the cloud and you will only pay for the service, saving on hardware equipment and related maintenance costs. The advantages are countless: enormous flexibility in discontinuing a service if it is no longer useful for your purposes, upgrading it prior to first trying it out. Applications are on our cloud and if they are improved you will always use the latest version from day to day, thus not needing to download software or do long and annoying updates.

VideoAnalysis as a Service – VaS is the latest technological frontier you do not want to miss. All you have to do is choose our VaS Ready products that incorporate the software needed to pre-process and send the images to our cloud; results are sent to your camera or directly to your dashboard.

A.I. Tech is on the cloud with the best services for you!
