Artificial intelligence is able to learn to identify objects, people, events and behaviours in a similar fashion as our eye-brain combo does. Computer vision processes video streams, often in real time, and this way we are able to create tools aimed at safeguarding critical infrastructures, protecting public spaces, automating effort-consuming tasks and creating unique customer experiences, among many other things. Computer vision is a fast-evolving field with a massive growth potential and, when it is combined with highly autonomous systems such as robots and swarms of drones, the possibilities are truly fascinating. 

In Atos Research and Innovation we work alongside European and international top researchers to make all this happen. We closely follow many research lines so we are prepared to make our computer vision solutions faster, better, lighter, more reliable and readily available. We work towards reducing system loads and reduce processing time from days to something able to respond in real time while maintaining maximum accuracy. We also optimise our platforms so all the calculations can take place in edge devices and hybrid edge/server configurations, thus increasing the flexibility and versatility of all our tools. Our ultimate goal is to maximise Atos AI capabilities, develop the most advanced computer vision tools for our clients and deploy the best cost effective solutions for highly complex business cases.
