Description
CrowdOptic is a vision analytics company specializing in advanced triangulation technology that integrates with realtime video systems to improve surveillance and facial recognition. Their products enable the use of fixed cameras, body cams, smartphones, and drones to identify individuals and targets in realtime. In partnership with NEC Australia, CrowdOptic has developed advanced surveillance technology for smart cities. In collaboration, the companies built a system which allows cameras equipped with CrowdOptic software to stream video to servers running NEC’s facial recognition software, enabling the automated monitoring and analysis of public spaces. According to Jon Fisher, founder of CrowdOptic, police in China are using CrowdOptic's technology to read license plates and "identify incidents" more efficiently. The system can instantly track when multiple police officers focus on the same object, providing faster results compared to manually sifting through surveillance camera footage.
