EPIC iO integrates computer vision, biosecurity, AIoT for safer, smarter cities, businesses

EPIC iO, a provider of technology applied AIoT (Artificial Intelligence and Internet of Things), has announced key upgrades to its DeepInsights platform that will, among other things, help smart cities and other organisations control traffic and crime, improve crowd safety, and reduce infectious diseases. As the core of EPIC iO turnkey solutions that address real-world problems, DeepInsights delivers the data collection and management, intelligence, and automated responses needed to get the most out of IoT technology.

DeepInsights’ AI-powered analysis drives all EPIC iO solutions. As an open, cloud-native and highly flexible analysis engine, DeepInsights takes in diverse data sets from IoT sensors like video cameras, environmental sensors, and external third-party systems (normalising these diverse data streams and analysing the optimised data flows using AI and other capabilities), and then presents findings and notifications on a dashboard that offers insights for any application. The platform incorporates neural network algorithms, machine learning, and enhanced AI data modeling into its analyses to reveal exactly what is happening in any environment in real time.

New features in DeepInsights include:

  • A next-generation Computer Vision AI model for object detection and enhanced tracking and analysis that can be deployed to edge devices
  • A fine-grained Classification module that recognises fire, trash, tents, movement, ​crowd size, and other items and events
  • A new Rules Wizard that simplifies AI rules creation across multiple sensor endpoints 
  • A biosecurity module that disinfects spaces 
  • Cloud Dashboard templates that simplify visualisation and analysis for multi-site organisations

DeepInsights’ technology supports the industry’s advanced AIoT solutions. For example, a parking lot security system uses Computer Vision, license plate recognition and audio monitoring to report on congestion, accidents, available spaces and potential theft. A store security and management system analyses real-time or recorded video to report shopper volume, dwell times, accidents, loitering and theft.

“As the only company that integrates everything from sensors and network connectivity to analysis and visualisation to deliver complete solutions, EPIC iO enables its highly diverse customer base to leverage and profit from AIoT technologies,” says Ken Mills, CEO of EPIC iO. “Whether the goal is improving efficiency, keeping employees and customers healthy or reducing crime, our technology helps customers exceed their IoT expectations, and DeepInsights is at the core of every solution.”
