Productizing Edge AI Across Applications and Verticals: NEC Case Study and Insights


Date:  Friday, May 28

Start Time: 9:00 am

End Time: 9:30 am

As edge AI is growing across different markets and entering more products, discussions about realizing product and application goals are growing in importance. This presentation will explore how product and application goals are being met in real-world applications by examining case studies from customers who have leveraged Hailo’s processors to perform high-performance AI inferencing at the edge. The main case study we’ll discuss is NEC’s video analytics platform, which targets smart city, security and other use cases. For this, Hailo’s Orr Danon will be joined by a guest speaker, Tsvi Lev, Managing Director of NEC Research Center Israel and an NEC Vice President. Following the case study, we will conclude by highlighting key insights learned and offer a glimpse into future deployments.
