AI cameras are existing surveillance cameras equipped with intelligent AI functions. Various work improvements and innovations can be achieved by using AI cameras to perform tasks that were traditionally performed by humans, such as counting inventory, grasping traffic conditions, looking at meters on measuring instruments, and checking the finish of products. can be connected to
Since 2019, Soracom has been developing an AI camera "S+ Camera" that can be used simply by connecting a power supply. By equipping the S+ Camera with a cellular communication function as standard in the AI camera, settings can be changed and the AI algorithm can be updated remotely. In addition to waterproof models and dedicated optional lenses, various sample algorithms such as face / mask detection, reading numbers and letters, object detection, etc. can be used free of charge. And the "S+ Camera WP" announced on February 24 is an outdoor AI camera that supports waterproof performance IP66. This expresses the performance that "dust from strong winds does not enter inside and there is no risk of flooding even in heavy rain", and it is not only waterproof but also dustproof. It also supports outdoor shooting at night, so it can be used for various purposes.

At AI Camera NOW, which will be held on March 16th, Soracom S+ Camera Product Manager Ken Igarashi and Customer Reliability Engineer Shunsuke Kano explained the S+ Camera WP in an easy-to-understand manner, from installation to usage. In addition, as a user example, Mr. Kiichiro Katsuren, Director of Business Management Headquarters of Aprism, will explain how to use it in the congestion measurement solution at "Namba Parks" at Namba Station in Osaka.
In addition, I'm actually interested in AI cameras and want to use S+ Camera! For those people, an individual consultation meeting (pre-registration required, applicants only) will be held via web conference. In addition, a workshop will be held where you can experience a free trial of operating the S+ Camera installed in Tokyo from a web browser with explanations from the instructor (SORACOM account required). There are three basic functions: "simple image acquisition" for checking images remotely, "text reading (OCR)" for digitizing analog information such as paper and electronic bulletin boards, and "visitor count" for counting the number of people captured by the camera. It is said that you can experience how to use it.
The event will be held on Wednesday, March 16, 2022 from 15:00 to 16:30. It is held online and is free to attend. I would like you to come and join us.
