Computer vision for
real-time decisions

We build computer vision systems that detect, track, read and inspect in real time. They run on your own devices, keep camera footage on site and are monitored once live.

What's included

What we
build for you

6 capabilities, delivered by one squad. Use what you need now and add more as you grow.

  • 01

    Detection and tracking

    Object detection, tracking of several objects at once, counting and event triggers for real-time operations.

    • Works in low light
    • Multi-camera calibration
  • 02

    OCR and visual reading

    Read industrial text, meters, labels, forms and ID documents, with a confidence check on every result.

    • Confidence thresholds
    • Human review queue
  • 03

    Quality inspection

    Defect detection, anomaly spotting and visual QA tuned for the variation on your production line.

    • Drift monitoring
    • Golden sample tests
  • 04

    Edge deployment

    Models run on the device itself for fast responses and privacy, tuned to your hardware's limits.

    • Quantisation and pruning
    • Runtime tuning
  • 05

    Data engine

    Labelling pipelines, dataset checks and active learning, which picks the new images most worth labelling, so the model keeps improving.

    • Hard-negative mining
    • Active learning
  • 06

    Secure monitoring

    Activity records, metrics and alerts that track model confidence and day-to-day reliability.

    • Event logs
    • Confidence drift alerts

Our approach

What usually goes wrong,
and what we do instead

  1. The usual way

    Models get worse when the lighting changes, a camera is swapped or the seasons turn.

    How we do it

    We build datasets that cover your real conditions, add varied training examples and watch for accuracy drift, so the model holds up on site.

  2. The usual way

    Models that work in testing but stall on the device once speed, memory or heat limits are hit.

    How we do it

    We compress, batch and tune each model for your hardware, so it runs steadily on the device.

  3. The usual way

    No one tracks confidence, keeps activity records or collects signals for retraining.

    How we do it

    We log confidence and activity, trigger retraining when needed and send uncertain results to a person for review.

Architecture

How it's
put together

Each layer has a clear job, so the system is easier to secure, test and extend.

  1. Layer 01

    Data and label QA

    Dataset versions, label checks and a steady supply of the cases the model gets wrong, so it learns real-world variation.

    • Label QA and consensus
    • Augmentation
    • Active learning
  2. Layer 02

    Capture and preprocessing

    Camera feeds, time sync, normalisation, regions of interest and calibration for consistent input.

    • RTSP
    • GStreamer
    • OpenCV
    • Calibration
  3. Layer 03

    Edge runtime

    Model compression, hardware acceleration, batching and tuning for steady, fast processing on the device.

    • INT8 / FP16
    • TensorRT
    • OpenVINO
    • TFLite
  4. Layer 04

    Verification and monitoring

    Confidence thresholds, region rules and human review before results trigger actions, plus drift alerts.

    • Confidence thresholds
    • Region rules
    • Human review
    • Drift alerts
    • Audit logs

How we deliver

From first review
to live in production

4 phases, each ending with an output you can review.

  1. Step 1: Environment and data audit

    Define your camera set-up, edge hardware limits, label categories and how success will be measured in production.

    Output: Vision feasibility blueprint

  2. Step 2: Model and dataset build

    Train and test the model, check and expand the datasets, and collect the hard cases it gets wrong.

    Output: Reliable model baseline

  3. Step 3: Edge optimisation and verification

    Compress the model, tune the runtime, and add confidence checks and human review paths.

    Output: Production-ready edge stack

  4. Step 4: Deploy, observe and improve

    Go live with monitoring, drift alerts and a retraining loop connected to your operations team.

    Output: Monitored, measurable accuracy

Your team

Who works
on it

Specialists join your squad for this work, alongside a delivery lead who keeps you updated.

  • Vision architect

    Designs the whole system, from cameras and image preparation to the model, its checks and the signals it sends.

    • Detection
    • Tracking
    • Verification
  • Data and QA lead

    Sets the label categories and runs label checks, dataset versions and active learning, so accuracy holds as conditions change.

    • Taxonomy
    • Label QA
    • Active learning
  • Edge optimisation engineer

    Compresses and tunes models for your hardware, so they run fast without overheating the device.

    • INT8
    • TensorRT
    • Thermal limits
  • Vision ops lead

    Runs monitoring, confidence tracking, drift detection and retraining triggers, with day-to-day dashboards.

    • Monitoring
    • Drift
    • Alerts

Trust and control

Safe by design,
not by policy alone

  • Confidence and verification gates

    Thresholds, region rules and other limits are checked before any action is triggered.

  • Privacy-first outputs

    Frames stay on the device, and only signals, metadata and alerts are sent out.

  • Activity records and drift monitoring

    Event logs and confidence tracking show when accuracy slips and retraining is due, and every deployed model is versioned.

  • Human review

    Low-confidence results go to a review queue, so a person makes the final call.

You keep full ownership of the code, configuration and documentation we create, with no vendor lock-in.

Tools and standards

We pick what fits your product and team, not the other way round.

    Radiology: Likely tumours flagged as each scan completes

    We built edge AI for a high-volume hospital that analyses CT and MRI scans on site, locates likely tumours and moves urgent cases up the worklist. Throughput rose 4.5x, and each on-site analysis takes 40ms.

Common uses are detecting, tracking and counting objects, reading text from meters, labels, forms and ID documents, and spotting defects on a production line. Our case studies include edge AI that locates likely tumours on hospital CT and MRI scans, and a buffet system that tracks tray levels to cut food waste.
