New IDIS AI Box monitors COVID-19 compliance

Security
IDIS has launched the AI Box (DV-2232) for COVID-19, which regulates COVID-related hygiene measures, relieving pressure on frontline workers
 
Powered by the company's 98% accurate deep learning engine, the AI Box, specifically designed with COVID-19 in mind, is a simple add-on appliance which is compatible with IDIS network cameras and DirectIP NVRs – removing the need for analytics software or edge VA devices. 
 
The add-on appliance will operate across four advanced video analytics systems, which will stream simeoultaneously across 32-channels and each camera's live feed.
 
The functions of the DV-2232 include people counting and occupancy control, crowd and mask detection, social distance adherence, and tools to report the compliance to health and safety regulations. These features support and enforce safe learning procedures to help prevent the spread of Coronavirus and other infections. 
 
The counter-infection measures offered by the appliance will include:
 
People/occupancy monitoring – counts the number of people coming in and out of premises, showing the occupancy status in real-time. Cameras positioned at entrances and exits allows the IDIS AI Box to provide precise AI-assisted alerts to overcrowding, with real-time calculations to underpin occupancy control interventions. For retail customers, dashboards positioned at store entrances use a traffic light system to automate the admissions and flow in and out. 
Social distancing – the system can detect distances between individuals, sending an alarm when a defined distance is breached. Users can configure notifications to issue verbal reminders and select from different spacing sensitivity levels depending on distancing requirements.   
Face mask detection – detects those not following mask-based regulation in real time, giving users the ability to trigger alarms and notifications when breaches are detected. 
 
Jamil Al Asfar, senior sales manager, IDIS Middle East and Africa, elaborated on the system's benefits: "IDIS has developed credible and practical solutions to help reduce infection risks, with automation that improves operating efficiency and technology that avoids the cost of hiring in additional manpower or redeploying existing staff."
