Cut down AI/ML model development time in half with video labeling services

HUMAN SUPERVISION, AI PRECISION

Accurate Video Annotation Demands More Than Just AI Tools

Unlike labeling static images, video annotation is more complex and time-consuming. Annotators must examine video frames, consistently label objects as they move or change across frames, and account for all interactions and motion. Even with automated video annotation tools, data accuracy isn't guaranteed. In many cases, video annotation requires 3D annotations, depth estimation, or a deeper understanding of context, which AI tools can struggle with.

We provide a smarter way to overstep these video annotation challenges: human-supervised, AI-assisted video annotation services.

USE CASES

Video Annotation Services for Enterprises

In-Cabin Monitoring icon In-Cabin Monitoring

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are a trending vehicular feature that streamlines road safety. The camera captures footage of in-cabin movements like eyelid movements, head position, activities of drivers & passengers, etc. Through video data annotation of these key points, our team identifies crucial markers that impact the quality of driving, like signs of fatigue in the driver or emotions of vehicle occupants. This eventually contributes to the training of machine learning models for in-cabin monitoring and equips such AI systems to respond intelligently to occupant behavior.

Security AI Icon Security AI models

The automation of threat and theft detection is the most significant application of AI/ML in the security industry. A security AI solution can be trained to interpret movement, analyze behavior, detect objects, and categorize them as normal, threatening, or suspicious. We enable AI security systems with that functional capability through video data annotation of surveillance footage to identify and track movement and label them across the determined spectrum of human behaviors. Trained using this dataset, an AI model can detect unauthorized access or unusual limb postures, enabling real-time threat detection and response.

Retail Assistants Retail Assistants

AI-powered surveillance cameras can detect theft or fraud. In-store traffic analyzing AI can provide insights into customer sentiment and product performance, predict peak shopping times, enable better staffing decisions, lead to smarter product recommendations, and help offer a truly omnichannel shopping experience to consumers. We help train such AI-powered retail assistants by annotating video feeds from store cameras.

Medical Diagnosis AI for Medical Diagnosis

We employ subject matter experts to annotate medical videos, such as endoscopy or surgery footage, to identify and label anatomical structures, anomalies, or procedural steps. The resultant video datasets help train AI models for automated diagnosis, surgical assistance, and improving patient outcomes.

Video Annotation Live-Stream Video Annotation

Labeling video data as it is being streamed has significant applications in AI models that need to operate in dynamic environments where real-time analysis and decision-making are critical. For instance, monitoring patient vitals during surgery or event monitoring for sports analytics.
