Focus on the Edge: How Videam’s Smart Cameras Solve Real-World Problems - We talk IoT #69
In this episode, we explore the future of computer vision with Tommaso Scuccato and Marco Bergamin from Videam, an Italian startup that brings AI-powered vision systems to the edge.
Videam tackles diverse challenges from ski pass fraud detection to traffic monitoring using custom-built cameras that process AI algorithms locally. Their patented technology avoids facial recognition, instead analysing patterns and features that work even when people wear goggles or face coverings.
Tommaso and Marco discuss their journey from aerospace and automotive engineering to developing polarised sensors that see through windscreen reflections, enabling applications from catching distracted drivers to industrial quality control. We explore why they chose edge processing over cloud solutions and how their partnership with Avnet accelerates hardware development.
Tune in to discover how intelligent cameras transform everyday problems into solved challenges – one frame at a time.
