It’s always a great thing when technology is used for good reasons. Especially for safety and security purposes.

On our next stop on the road to embedded world we're stopping at AVerMedia.

Artificial intelligence is the driving force behind so many applications today. From the developers’ perspective, it’s almost a given that AI will play some role in the end application. One such application where AI is making a lot of inroads is public safety and security. Such security is being utilized in everything from airports and railways stations to hospitals and manufacturing facilities. And it can scale from a single room to a large campus or even a city.

AVerMedia Technologies, Inc., a leader in digital audio and video products, is proud to announce its latest AI solution aimed at safety and security.

The COVID-19 pandemic has increased the need for smart, touchless, and reduced-contact shopping solutions, implemented either at the point of sale or through surveillance infrastructure. This has piqued interested in embedded AI technology, but to transform that interest into deployments, edge system OEMs and integrators need solutions that are high performance, with flexible connectivity, and designed to withstand varied commercial operating environments.

While the appearance of the COVID-19 pandemic has undoubtedly shaped consumer buying behavior, it has also accelerated pre-Covid retail trends. Trends such as contactless payments and non-traditional shopping experiences did not arise from the pandemic; however, their usage is expected to increase.
