DFI showcased two fanless embedded systems – the EC710-ASL and EC600-RPS – in the DeepX CES booth, featuring the DX-M1 M.2 AI accelerator. “These platforms are designed to meet critical real-time demands in smart cities, enabling applications like smart transportation, surveillance, and accident prevention,” a press release says.
Hailo
The AI chip developer for security cameras and other edge devices showcased is traditional Hailo-8 and Hailo-15 vision processor chips, but a new development was its Hailo-10H, which is capable of bringing deep learning applications directly to edge devices.
“This brings the power of generative AI to our edge solutions,” said James Shields Hailo’s Sales Director.
The chip will enable end-users to query videos using a generative AI interface, for example, ‘find a white truck driving 30 mph down Oak Street.’ “It is all completely contained in the Hailo-10,” Shields added. “It is not connected to the internet. There's no magic fairies in the box. It is completely on premises with low latency, very low power consumption and high performance.”
SK Telecom
Korea’s SK Telecom showcased video surveillance tech in its booth, led by its AI Quantum Camera. While there are few published details about the camera’s features and capabilities, it was clear by the booth demo that it relies on a chipset to deliver advanced AI analytics without a server – for example, anomaly detection for safety issues like fire or slip-and-falls, or privacy masking/anonymization of video for compliance purposes.
Its AI engine can also analyze a scene and create a generative AI-made description, such as “a man wearing a black shirt standing with his arms crossed in front.” According to the booth demo, the camera is also equipped with quantum encryption.
MemryX
MemryX Inc., another 2024 first-time ISC West exhibitor specializing in AI acceleration, was at CES touting a new partnership with Variscite, an Israel-based System on Module (SoM) solution provider. The collaboration combines MemryX's advanced AI acceleration technology with Variscite's SoMs for industrial and edge computing applications.
The integrated solution targets various industries, such as industrial automation, healthcare, and video management systems, enabling real-time data processing and decision-making at the edge.
In addition, MemryX demoed an AI-enabled video management system for advanced surveillance, safety, and analytics applications with 100 simultaneous video streams in its Venetian Palazzo Suite.
