iSense™ is a compact, low power, embedded video content analysis and
transmission server for real-time detection and counting of people or cars in video
images. iSense uses a DSP processor to analyze an external video camera, with
video encoding and transmission over a network.
iSense is packaged with all software programs required to operate as a complete
“single-machine” video detection system, but can be configured to operate as one
of several VDUs (Video Detection Units) in a network saving all data to a
common database.
Access to the counting data is done via one or more web-based tools run from
standard browsers.
