IP camera with AI "on board

[relemedf5w023]

One of the most interesting new products from Axis is the Q1615 Mk III network camera. It belongs to the category of fixed-body cameras, and its distinctive feature is the presence of not only the proprietary patented ARTPEC chip (Axis Real Time Picture Encoder Chip), which is the "heart" of any camera from the company, but also a miniature (smaller than a one-ruble coin) high-performance Edge TPU (Edge Tensor Processing Unit) chip, which, in combination with the TensorFlow Lite framework, is designed to implement deep machine learning technologies and has a performance of 4 TOPS, while consuming only 2 W of energy. It is believed that Google developed this chip in an effort to decisively push back the positions of Microsoft and Amazon in the Internet of Things (IoT) market.


The Q1615 Mk III is the first Axis IP camera to use this chip. Thanks to the pre-installed AXIS Object Analytics application, which actively uses the Edge TPU resources, this camera can independently and almost austria whatsapp data distinguish between bicycles, cars, buses, trucks and other moving objects. At the same time, you can set the parameters by which these objects will be monitored, as well as determine situations when alarms will be triggered, and notifications will be sent to security personnel. It is easy to see that this camera implements the Edge Computing concept, which many analysts predict has a bright future.


It is important to note that thanks to the ACAP (Axis Camera Application Platform) platform, the Q1615 Mk III camera can be loaded with not only proprietary, but also third-party AI applications that use the computing resources of the Edge TPU chip.
