Synthetic data for computer vision models and retail analytics
At Vision Analytics, we are a company specialized in the development of computer vision solutions. Our neural networks allow (among other things) to generate value and information from an image, allowing smart decision-making based on data and real analytics. One of the problems facing artificial intelligence these days, and in particular the area of computer vision, is the lack of data. Surprising as it may seem, we generate more than 50 thousand photos per second (phototutorial), but we only have access to a few of these photos and from these, only some of them are valid for the task we are facing on. The problem of the lack of data is so heavy that companies like Vision Analytics (visionanalytics.ai) This is where our partner Veris Behavior (verisbehavior.com)
Israeli startup wins $7m investment for retail vision platform
Israeli computer vision startup, Trigo Vision, has won $7 million in a seed funding round by UK-Israel based Hetz Ventures and Vertex Ventures Israel. Trigo Vision's vision platform is designed for the retail market. It combines a network of ceiling-based cameras with machine vision algorithms to identify customers' shopping items, similar in principle to the Amazon Go store in Seattle, which doesn't have a checkout because it can track what customers put in their shopping basket. The funding will be used to grow the company's core R&D team and build new applications for its technology. 'The founding team has managed to assemble a world-class R&D team to tackle an enormous user experience problem in retail,' commented Yanai Oron, general partner at Vertex Ventures.
