Plumerai Video Intelligence¶
Plumerai Video Intelligence is a complete AI stack for consumer cameras, video doorbells, and commercial security cameras. It has been deployed at scale and field-tested on millions of cameras across dozens of different SoCs.
The Video Intelligence software can be deployed on-device, on-prem, in the cloud, or in any hybrid combination of these.
It provides fast, accurate detection of people, vehicles, packages, and animals, and supports advanced features such as Familiar Face Identification (with Stranger Detection) and Vision Language Model (VLM)-based capabilities that can run on-device. The models are highly optimized for low-power hardware and can be integrated using our unified API.
Components¶
The following Plumerai Video Intelligence components are available:
- Object Detection, including:
- Plumerai People Detection
- Plumerai Vehicle Detection
- Plumerai Animal Detection
- Plumerai Package Detection
- Plumerai Familiar Face Identification (FFID)
- Plumerai Stranger Detection
- Plumerai Advanced Motion Detection
- Products based on Vision Language Models ('VLM'):
Platforms, API, and deployment¶
Plumerai Video Intelligence runs on a wide variety of platforms and operating systems while using the same unified API across environments.
Depending on the compute and memory available on the target platform, the end-to-end AI pipeline can be deployed entirely at the edge, or partitioned so that some components run on-device while others run on a hub, on-prem server, or in the cloud.
Demos¶
We provide demo applications that run:
- on Arm Cortex-A and x86 CPUs
- on an ESP32-S3 microcontroller
- on a Realtek Ameba Pro2
- directly in your browser
Plumerai Inference Engine¶
Plumerai Inference Engine is the world's fastest deep learning inference engine for Arm Cortex-M and other microcontrollers.
