CHARM

Vision4ce offers both hardware and software solutions for video tracking. FrameWorkx is a software based video tracker that can run on either a Linux or Windows platform based on Intel or ARM processors.

The Vision4ce CHARM hardware products are based on the FrameWorkx software which is hosted on an embedded board which uses a multicore ARM processor module. A range of board form factors are available with a variety of video interfaces supported including PAL, NTSC, YPbPr, HD- SDI, CameraLink, CoaxPress, and Ethernet for connection to the imaging sensors.

Object Detection and Classification

The object detection and classification functionality leverages neural networks to enhance both operator-assisted and automated target acquisition, even in the most complex environments. This cutting-edge technology simplifies the operation of our products, making it more efficient for common use cases such as the detection of air and naval targets. Customisable to meet specific operational requirements, our technology ensures precision and adaptability across diverse scenarios, enhancing situational awareness and decision-making processes for surveillance, defence, and industrial applications.

DEFT

The object tracking includes DEFT, the latest innovation in target tracking using a deep learning-based algorithm that provides accurate and robust tracking in complex situations where there is both occlusion and rapid motion.

Rugged PCs

Digital Video Recorders

The Vision4ce GRIP PCs are high performance, rugged, computer platforms for image and video processing. Based on industrial PC hardware that is packaged in a rugged, sealed enclosure for use in harsh environmental applications. Vision4ce’s GRIP range uses high performance Intel Core i7 CPUs, which can also include NVIDIA GPUs to support complex graphics requirements or high performance computing applications using GPU processing.

The Vision4ce range of specialised and bespoke DVRs (digital video recorders) are based on the Vision4ce GRIP hardware and VMS software. The DVRs can incorporate the following capabilities:

• Recording of un-compressed video

• Recording of compressed video using H.264 and M-JPEG compression

• Recording of metadata

• Live pause, rewind, playback capability

• Removable media

• Bulk erase for rapid deletion of sensitive video

• Encryption of recorded video

• Selectable video input formats including PAL, NTSC, 3G/HD-SDI, YPbPr, CameraLink, HDMI, VGA, CoaXPress and GigE Vision

• Network interface
