VIDEO DATA LABELING SERVICES

Automated Annotation Often Misses the Mark

We Fill the Gap with Human Expertise

AI models are only as accurate as the data they’re trained on. Yet, automated video annotation tools frequently miss critical details that can compromise your AI projects. The nuance and context that make real-world data so complex often become insurmountable challenges for fully automated annotation systems.

The consequences of AI models trained on such flawed data can be disastrous, such as:

  • Autonomous vehicles missing safety signs
  • Surveillance systems overlooking threats
  • Construction site monitoring systems misidentifying safety hazards

These errors not only threaten user safety but also expose your business to reputational damage and significant liability risks.

OUR SERVICES

Our Video Annotation Services Include

2D Bounding Box Annotation

  • Categorize and tag video components by drawing rectangular boxes around them.
  • Accurately determine the position, partial obstruction, and orientation of objects or people.

Polygon & Polyline Annotation

  • Trace the exact shape of objects.
  • Enable precise segmentation and recognition for complex and irregularly shaped items.

Keypoint/Landmark Annotation

  • Annotate key points on objects or people, such as facial landmarks or joint positions.
  • Best for tasks like facial recognition, pose estimation, and motion analysis.

Event Classification

  • Identifying and tagging specific events within video footage to categorize and label key actions.
  • Helps AI models accurately classify and differentiate between various activities.

Lines and Splines Annotation

  • Draw lines or curves over video components to define edges, paths, or boundaries.
  • Enables AI models to accurately understand shapes and trajectories.
  • Useful for tasks like lane detection in autonomous driving and object boundary recognition.

Event Tracking

  • Monitor and annotate specific events throughout video sequences, ensuring accurate tracking of positions, durations, and movements.
  • Useful to train AI models to effectively follow events over time and understand the context.

3D Cuboid Annotation

  • 3D bounding boxes to represent objects in three-dimensional space.
  • Provides depth and spatial context, like basic object detection for autonomous driving and warehouse automation.

Skeleton Annotation

  • Map the skeletal structure of humans or animals by marking joints and bones.
  • Aids in the analysis of posture, movement, and activity recognition.

Semantic Segmentation

  • Pixel-level classification in video datasets for comprehensive understanding and segmentation of scenes.
  • Essential for applications like medical imaging and autonomous vehicles.

Oriented Bounding Boxes Annotation

  • Annotate objects with rotated bounding boxes that align with their orientation, providing more accurate object localization.
  • Works well for objects at an angle, with irregular shapes, like in aerial imagery.

Instance Segmentation

  • Differentiate individual objects within an image by assigning each pixel to a specific object, even within overlapping regions.
  • Crucial for tasks requiring precise object boundaries for detailed scene understanding, such as medical imaging.

3D Point Cloud Annotation

  • Three-dimensional environment mapping for 3D point clouds, typically captured by LiDAR sensors or depth cameras.
  • Useful for detailed environmental mapping, object recognition in autonomous driving, robotics, and augmented reality (AR).
DATA SECURITY

Data Security Should Never be an Afterthought

Don't compromise on data security while outsourcing—choose a partner who prioritizes it as much as you do. Our commitment to data protection is backed by internationally recognized certifications, including ISO/IEC 27001:2022 for information security management and ISO 9001:2015 for quality management.
