Partner Brief
Unlock new possibilities by extracting value from video data AOPEN Digital Security & Safety: A computer vision partnership between Intel, Milestone Systems, SAIMOS, and AOPEN As the field of artificial intelligence (AI) has continued to develop, computer vision has emerged as one of the most essential pieces of technology for areas like manufacturing, retail, and smart cities. The value of being able to leverage camera data is enormous, but doing so requires: • E xceptional hardware positioned at the edge, to avoid the latency associated with sending information back to a data center, security issues around transmitting data, and bandwidth limitations. • I ntegration with any existing hardware including alarms and cameras, temperature sensors, microphones, access control, and more. • R eliable operation around the clock: downtime for maintenance can be disruptive and costly. Intel has partnered with AOPEN, Milestone Systems, and SAIMOS to bring a new all-in-one computer vision solution to the market that satisfies all the requirements listed above. It’s a platform called AOPEN Digital Security & Safety - available in five different SKUs built to support a range of use cases. You can view these in the appendix section.
Blending analytics, hardware and software capabilities As system integrators working in the digital security industry know, the complexity of building solutions that can address the complex and fast-changing needs of customers requires a careful blend of technologies. This section lifts the lid on the critical components of a fully integrated computer vision solution.
SAIMOS: Use cases for video analytics SAIMOS provides video analytics software that comes loaded onto the solution out of the box. It provides a variety of powerful features that can be used across a range of computer vision use cases. These include: • 2D and 3D counting and heat mapping – useful in retail scenarios, for example, in determining areas of a shop where people spend their time. • Perimeter protection – for example, for detecting entry intro restricted areas. • Object detection – for the detection of objects blocking hallways, or for detecting objects that have been removed, for example.
