AI-BIO is the video analytics solution designed to meet the needs of marketers, e.g. in buildings, museums, restaurants, shops, malls, airports and parks, but more generally in all those situations in which it is essential to know both the number of people crowding your sales area and to profile your customers.
This information allows, for instance, a store chain which is launching a new product to know the target audience that may be interested and their reaction while looking at the product for the first time. AI-BIO is also a key solution for Digital Signage.
Today the monitors displaying advertising content are becoming very popular; however, they always show the same messages in a loop without nany customization.
AI-BIO allows to maximize the effectiveness of advertising campaigns, thanks to the possibility of showing content that suits the person who is looking at the monitor.
In such a scenario, it is extremely useful to assess the impact and the effectiveness of advertising content by understanding the emotion of a person that is watching it and evaluating the dwell time.

AI-BIO is a multi-platform application, and can be installed on more than 20 different hardware platforms including cameras (edge), small processing systems (embedded devices), workstations and servers.

In addition, all AI-Bio features are also available as accessible services on the cloud. For more details on the specifics of the services, see the dedicated section (link).

AI-Bio can generate two types of events:

• “Bio” type event, which contains for each framed face the relative characteristics in terms of gender, age, ethnicity and emotion; this event is sent as soon as the person’s face is no longer visible by the system.
• Digital Signage” event, which contains the same information generated by the “Bio” event. The main difference is that this event is used for Digital Signage applications, and is therefore sent as soon as the person’s face is visible, in order to allow customisation of advertising content while the person is still in front of the monitor.

Events can be sent to external servers using over 20 different protocols, including third-party VMS, standard protocols (such as HTTP, FTP, MODBUS and MQTT) and A.I. Tech’s proprietary protocols, which allow events to be notified to A.I. Tech dashboards. You can find more details on the available notification mechanisms at the following link.

For the AI-Bio plugin, the use of standard protocols is of particular interest, in all those cases where a dashboard for data management is already available. On the other hand, if you do not have such a dashboard, the combination of AI-Bio with the AI-DASH-PRO dashboard is the winning solution.

AI-CROWD is the video analytics solution designed to meet a variety of needs that may arise in buildings, museums, restaurants, shops, shopping malls, airports, train stations or in various areas of the city.

AI-CROWD is the key tool for marketers to understand how visitors move around their sales area, determining the most crowded and the least crowded areas. At the same time, it is the ideal tool to perform checkout management, as it can be used to minimise waiting time in queues and thus improve the customer experience: for example, it is possible to detect the number of people waiting to make a payment and alert staff to open a new checkout, or to implement the automatic cash management system.

AI-CROWD is also the tool needed to monitor crowds on platforms in train stations or at gates in airports, in order to automatically detect crowds and advise people to observe social distances.

Thanks to the possibility of operating reliably in both indoor and outdoor environments, including in combination with existing surveillance cameras as well as with new generation cameras, AI-CROWD is also a must-have tool for the smart management of a city, for which on one hand it is necessary to know how citizens move around the city, and on the other to provide citizens with a tool to support them in ensuring that they meet social distancing regulations.

AI-Crowd is a multi-platform application, and can be installed on more than 20 different hardware platforms including cameras (edge), small processing systems (embedded devices), workstations and servers.

In addition, the people counting feature is also available as an accessible service on the cloud. For more details on the specifics of the services, see the dedicated section (link).

If you have chosen to use a workstation or server-based solution, please connect to our system design support portal: AI-DESIGNER.

AI-Crowd periodically sends a notification containing an estimation of the number of people in one or more areas under analysis.

In addition, AI-Crowd Deep can be configured to send an alarm in the following situations:

• Presence of gatherings: in the scene there are groups of two or more people at close distance. The distance and the minimum number of people can be configured by the user.
• Social distance violation: two or more people are standing at a distance that is less than a configurable threshold.
• Overcrowding: the estimated number of people detected exceeds a threshold value chosen by the user.

AI-Crowd supports more than 20 notification protocols, including third-party VMS, standard protocols (such as HTTP, FTP, MODBUS and MQTT) and A.I. Tech proprietary protocols, which allow the notification of events to A.I. Tech dashboards.  More details on the notification mechanisms are available at this link.

When AI-Crowd is used to monitor overcrowding or gatherings, the ability to send alarms to more than 10 VMS may be of interest. Where no VMS is available AI-DASH-PRO can be used due to its built-in alarm management capabilities.

AI-PEOPLE is the video analytics solution designed to meet the needs of marketers. It can be used in buildings, museums, restaurants, shops, malls, airports and parks, but more generally in all those situations where it is essential to estimate the number of visitors over the of time.
In these same scenarios, AI-PEOPLE can also be used to estimate the number of people inside a room, a shop or a building and combined with the AI-DASH-PRO dashboard, to aggregate people counting data coming from multiple cameras installed at the entrances, and thus to assess possible overcrowding situations inside buildings.
The application of AI-PEOPLE is therefore twofold from a fundamental marketing tool to a powerful way of ensuring the safety of the area.

AI-People is a multi-platform application, and can be installed on more than 20 different hardware platforms including cameras (edge), small processing systems (embedded devices), workstations and servers.

If you have chosen to use a workstation or server-based solution, please connect to our system design support portal: AI-DESIGNER.

AI-People can be configured to send a notification when the following situations occur:

• Crossing: one or more people cross a virtual counting sensor. In this case the notification contains the number of people who have crossed the sensor.
• Threshold exceeded: the number of people counted by the application exceeds a configurable threshold. It is suggested to use this only in the Server and Edge versions as it is possible to configure AI-People to automatically reset the count value.

AI-People supports over 20 different notification protocols, including third-party VMS, standard protocols (such as HTTP, FTP, MODBUS and MQTT) and A.I. Tech’s proprietary protocols, which allow notification of events to A.I. Tech dashboards.  More details on the notification mechanisms are available at this link.

AI-APPLIANCE-DS can be used in commercial activities, museums, stations, airports or, in general, in all those situations where there are monitors showing advertising contents. From a practical point of view, it can be installed anywhere, both in indoor and outdoor environments, thanks to its compact size and extremely low power consumption.

AI-APPLIANCE-DS is an integrated hardware and software solution.
It consists of a small box equipped with GPU (http://172.16.35.8/products/ai-appliance/) and it allows to capture the video stream from a camera installed near the monitor and process it in real time thanks to the use of the video analysis app AI-BIO, that employs advanced artificial intelligence-based algorithms to analyze people’s faces and detect gender, ethnicity, as well as to estimate the age of people who are in front of the monitor.
Information generated by AI-BIO are employed by AI-DIGITAL-SIGNAGE.
It is a web application, already preloaded in the box with AI-BIO that allows the operator to upload advertising content (in terms of video and/or image) and define customization rules.

Data related to people’s biometrics, as well as time spent in front of the monitor, generated by AI-BIO, can be collected and sent to the dashboard AI-DASH-PRO in order to give the marketing manager a complete and detailed knowledge of the type of customer who watched the advertising content.

AI-CROWD-COUNTING can be applied to a large number of field, with a particular focus to smart cities. For example, the application can be used for monitoring squares and streets during public events and demonstrations, ensuring effective crowd control and public safety.

Furthermore, AI-CROWD-COUNTING can be used for monitoring stadiums or large arenas during concerts and shows, offering a valuable tool for managing audience dynamics and optimizing event logistics.

In the retail field the solution can be used to to estimate the number of people in stores or malls, even in very crowded situations such as on sales days, special promotions or the opening of new sales points.

Finally, the app can be successfully used in the transportation sector in airports or stations, for monitoring passenger flows.

AI-CROWD-COUNTING is a multi-platform application, and can be installed on more than 20 different hardware platforms including small processing systems (embedded devices), workstations and servers.
