Opportunities for deep learning powered video analytics are increasing, while users prefer risk-free adoption routes, says new report
LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM, 23 JULY 2024 – New guidance on AI-powered video technology will help systems integrators and their customers invest with confidence, says IDIS, South Korea’s largest in-country video manufacturer.
There are more ways than ever to use AI in surveillance operations, but with these opportunities come risks says the company in a new report. Buyer concerns include over-spending on equipment and associated infrastructure that fails to live up to expectations, becoming trapped with inflexible software or product dead-ends, or getting tied into unfavourable contracts.
The new publication, The Value and Benefits of End-to-End AI Video, explores the key capabilities and benefits of the latest solutions, while highlighting a number of pitfalls to avoid.
The most widely used video analytics functions, becoming common in sectors from retail and logistics to hospitality and manufacturing, include people counting; occupancy monitoring; object detection; line crossing; heat maps (showing activity patterns in specific locations); face detection; and alerts based on configured trigger events. The IDIS report highlights examples where AI video applications are replacing manual monitoring, collection, and analysis of data, saving costs, and improving accuracy.
In warehouses and industrial settings, for example, useful recent advances include the ability to detect people falling over, or abandoned items blocking fire exits, which is helping to reduce risks and enforce safety compliance.
And increasingly the uses for AI video go much wider than security, with at-a-glance dashboards making it easy to unlock new value from business intelligence metrics – for example, measuring sales performance or production output against peaks and troughs of people flow. Another example is where metrics from people counting and heat maps are integrated with retail point of sale (POS) or wider ERP solutions, to allow easier analysis of sales performance versus footfall and dwell time.
“Armed with better understanding, business leaders and their integrators can focus attention on areas of their operations that have the most potential for improvement,” says Jamie Barnfield, Senior Sales Director, IDIS Europe. “So, today’s more efficient AI video solutions can help optimise staffing levels, team training, stock handling, customer service, compliance with health and safety mandates, decision-making around premises locations, as well as many sector-specific applications.”
As well as providing an overview of latest developments, IDIS’s new report includes five steps for risk-free adoption of AI video; and it explores why end-to-end solutions are now delivering benefits from AI with fewer risks – in turn benefiting users with lower operating costs, and better total cost of ownership (TCO) value.
