The challenge of building Intelligent Video analytics solutions 

The demand for video systems to create actionable data is changing rapidly. Customers expect more intelligent camera solutions to match their business needs. This is a real challenge for system integrators! Because combining cutting edge technologies, fusing sensors and adding AI will normally result in long and costly R&D cycles. Not with HORISON…

HORISON Framework powered by Horus

• a component library & a list of preconfigured pipelines;
• a pipeline graph builder to design pipelines graphically;
• easy integration of your own proprietary code blocks;
• the functionality to integrate your own AI plugins or use the included AI models;
• the ability to configure your own web interface to manage your solution.

These elements are the basics to save an incredible amount of time to build IVA solutions.
Visionary imagery solutions built with HORISON are being used in several markets and industries including, health, robotics, safety & security, ADAS and mobile mapping.

TRIMBLE –  very fast development of the HR camera extension.

HORISON enabled us to develop an integrated High-Resolution camera extension kit for the Trimble mobile mapping MX product range in just a couple of weeks. HR imagery becomes more relevant for mobile mapping applications. Normally it takes a lot of effort to create such an extension. We did it in weeks.

Limited the R&D process into weeks to build this solution. 

NVIDIA & NavInfo –
AI integration for automated mapping.

By combining HORISON and Docker we were able to streamline the integration of the NavInfo AI library and NVIDIA Deepstream 6.0 at incredible speed. But making street level imagery GDPR compliant is just the beginning. Find below the instructions to build a GDPR camera yourself.

Integrated Deepstream 6.0 in hours.

ZandMotor – coastal defense by using video monitoring and AI.

RUNNER UP PRESTIGIOUS DUTCH INNOVATION CHALLENGE 2022

To map the effects of climate change, we used HORISON and the NVIDIA Jetson AI platform to build the adaptive camera monitoring system that sends video imagery, in real time from the ZandMotor directly to the servers of the Delft University  for further analysis.

Speed up your R&D process with HORISON

HORISON is the ultimate toolkit for system integrators. Upgrading your current set-ups with additional functionality was never that easy. Build faster & smarter and shorten your go-to-market.

HORISON enables to grab, transform, store, share visionary insights on any occasion & location. And includes functionality like real time stitching, streaming data, encode & decode, synchronization, encryption on any OS.

Many well known system integrators and manufacturers like TeledyneFlir, NavInfo, Telerob and Trimble are using HORISON.

We can imagine you can’t wait to try this yourself. To get you started we created a developers blog how to design a GDPR compliant camera system using the HORISON Framework and NavInfo Europe anonymization model. This developers blog includes a step-by-step manual, a full technical description and finally a real use case.
