Computer Vision and Edge AI, what are the challenges?
By combining image processing with machine learning and deep learning techniques, computer vision systems are revolutionizing many sectors, from Industry 4.0 to autonomous cars and Smart Cities. The emergence of the Computer Vision-Edge AI combo is ushering in a new technological era with intelligent embedded systems that process information locally, in real time, and securely.
Expertise at the heart of innovation
To capture these markets and deliver significant added value, Impulse designs software and algorithmic solutions for image processing, upstream of the vision system industrialization phase. By incorporating use cases from the earliest design stages, we develop Computer Vision and Edge AI solutions with a holistic understanding of the end product and its operating environment.
We design all the algorithms needed for the image acquisition workflow and for extracting the information required for object detection, classification and tracking, as well as for image segmentation and recognition of static and dynamic shapes in a scene. These algorithms have been designed to accommodate the varying computing power needs of both low- and high-performance Edge computing applications.
From Cloud to Edge AI
Leveraging our extensive expertise in Computer Vision, AI, and embedded systems, we deliver algorithms optimized for execution time, memory footprint, and energy consumption.
Our capabilities encompass the design of learning models, their deployment in production, and the continuous optimization and maintenance throughout the embedded system’s lifecycle.
Our Imaging Laboratory for Camera Calibration
Camera calibration, a fundamental step in computer vision, is particularly critical for ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems) applications. At Impulse’s Imaging Laboratory, we calibrate all types of image sensors using advanced techniques that model both intrinsic and extrinsic camera parameters. We ensure optimal image quality by intervening throughout the entire video workflow.
