What to learn from this article:
- “AAEON teams up with LatticeWork to deliver a solution for the retail sector."
- "The solution helps retailers prioritize marketing strategies based on real-time data."
- "By assigning impersonal IDs, the solution ensures data collection while safeguarding personal privacy."
Industrial computer manufacturer AAEON has announced a collaboration with U.S.-based startup LatticeWork, a company specializing in cloud and AI development. This partnership facilitates the integration of AAEON’s UP series, designed for Makers, with LatticeWork’s innovative software. AAEON noted that their hardware, the UP Xtreme i12 Edge, has recently been paired with LatticeWork’s VAISense software for AI-powered image and sensor data processing. This integrated solution has already been widely adopted in major retail stores across Thailand.
AAEON highlighted that LatticeWork is a software company specializing in the development of edge AI applications. This integration leverages AAEON’s UP Xtreme i12 Edge platform, paired with their self-developed OS (Linux Kernel), to enable remote data management, updates, retrieval, and maintenance.
LatticeWork
capitalizes on the features of the UP Xtreme i12 Edge, an edge AI
device, to process data at the edge before sending relevant information
to the cloud. Recently,
this solution has been adopted by major retail stores in Thailand to
monitor foot traffic at store entrances. It tracks the number of people
passing by and entering the stores, with the data being used to inform
marketing strategies and optimize product placements at the entrance.
Additionally, the solution can further analyze behavior patterns once customers enter the store by integrating with a map to provide coordinates and assigning a sequential ID to each individual, including both customers and employees. Using impersonal IDs for tracking helps mitigate concerns regarding personal privacy.
AAEON's UP Xtreme i12 Edge is powered by 12th Generation Intel processors and equipped with an AI acceleration module. It features two M.2 2280 M-Key slots, providing a four-lane PCIe Gen 4 interface, which allows it to process video and sensor data at the edge and perform rapid analysis.
