The Challenge
An automotive partner needed to enhance their driver assist system with the goal of improving road safety and saving lives. They chose the Astris AI Strategy and Consulting teams for their expertise in AI-based facial recognition and object detection.
Though this application targets the automotive sector, similar AI-driven, real-time monitoring and decision-making capabilities apply across various industries. For example:
Healthcare: Wearable devices or remote patient monitoring tools could spot early signs of fatigue or distress.
Manufacturing: Industrial equipment operators can be monitored for distraction, ensuring a safer, more efficient production floor.
Financial Services: Security cameras at bank branches can detect suspicious or inattentive behavior to prevent fraud or security breaches.
Retail: In-store monitoring systems could identify when staff become distracted, ensuring better customer service and improved store operations.
