Vivotek unveils new AI RealSight Engine

September 2024 AI & Data Analytics, Asset Management

Vivotek has announced an upgrade to its AI security solution with the release of the new AI feature, RealSight Engine. This feature transforms images captured by network cameras into clear, visible facial images under any lighting conditions. Even in backlit environments, facial expressions are rendered clearly.

The solution eliminates complex settings, enabling immediate activation upon installation. It optimises operational efficiency in environments such as dimly lit galleries, suburban dark parks, and low-light city parking lots.

It addresses customer pain points related to diverse lighting scenarios and time-consuming configurations, and combined with Vivotek’s AI search capabilities, it ensures the capture of critical images anytime and anywhere.

Accurate image recognition, search, and detection

According to research from Precedence Research (AI Camera Market Revenue, Top Companies, Report 2033), the global AI camera market revenue was valued at $8,2 billion in 2023 and expected to grow to $67,4 billion by 2033, at a compound annual growth rate of 23,50%. This underscores the importance of developing AI features for the next generation of security industry growth.

“Combined with Smart VCA to improve alarm accuracy and the Deep Search feature for quick searches, Vivotek solutions enhance the depth and breadth of image recognition, search, and event detection. With the addition of RealSight Engine feature, we further improve images clarity in various scenarios, ensuring key images are accurately captured, providing clients with crucial evidence.” Louis Liao, Director of Product Planning at Vivotek explained.

Traditional network cameras often struggle with image clarity under challenging lighting conditions, such as backlighting, overexposure, or rapid motion. RealSight Engin’s AI technology overcomes these challenges by automatically detecting people in the scene and enhancing image quality. The advantages of RealSight Engine include:

* Reducing image blur caused by movement and enhancing detail of facial features.

* Ensuring cameras capture clear images at night without requiring manual adjustments.

* Solving the issue of dark portraits under backlighting by preserving back-ground brightness, while enhancing foreground brightness and detail, making facial features clear even in backlight conditions.

* Helping cameras capture true colours, eliminating concerns about blue objects in the environment, and removing the need for white balance adjustments using white paper.

RealSight Engine is integrated into selected new high-end AI network cameras, and customers with eligible cameras can download this new feature. In the future, RealSight Engine will be gradually expanded to a broader range of Vivotek’s products, enhancing the entire AI series.
