The real-time revolution
Other innovative products beat the competition by front-loading AI processing in or near real-time. They include:
- Two product lines from Autel, the EVO Lite Enterprise series and the EVO II Pro V3, feature real-time onboard AI processing for enhanced imaging, including low-light video optimization and automated subject detection, with AI operations running locally before footage is transmitted or even saved to storage.
- The FlyPix AI Platform integrates AI processing directly on devices at the moment of image or video capture. Using edge hardware like Nvidia Jetson modules, FlyPix can achieve sub-100 millisecond latency for live analytics, allowing immediate object recognition and event alerts.
- IntelliVision AI Video Analytics applies AI processing directly at the edge (in the camera or local network node) rather than relying solely on cloud or centralized servers, allowing for real-time analysis and immediate actionable alerts. This reduces latency, minimizes bandwidth use, and improves privacy by processing sensitive video data closer to its source, according to the company.
- The Camio AI Security Platform applies AI processing at the very start of the video data pipeline, theoretically enabling organizations to monitor and respond to events faster. The solution enables users to describe in plain text the activities and policies they want detected; Camio’s AI interprets the query instantly as video or sensor data is captured.
There are a smattering of other companies innovating with real-time application of AI processing, including the Spot AI Security Solution, HOVERAir X1 PRO and PROMAX, Lumeo AI Video Analytics, Lumana AI Analytics, Eagle Eye Networks Cloud VMS, IRIS+ AI Video Platform, and others.
While we all obsess over the capabilities of AI image processing, we should take a moment and acknowledge the innovative application of exactly when those images are processed. By bringing powerful image editing and real-time analytics directly to or near the moment of capture, some companies are setting new standards for speed, flexibility, control, and security.
