Mandatory Precast Technology: A Double-Edged Sword for India’s Construction Industry

pre-cast image

An analysis of the potential impacts of making precast construction mandatory in India India’s construction industry stands at a crossroads. While traditional construction methods have built our cities for generations, there’s growing pressure to modernize through technologies like precast construction. Some policymakers have even suggested making precast technology mandatory across the construction sector. But is […]

Ensuring Safety and Efficiency on Construction Sites with AI

In the rapidly evolving landscape of construction, ensuring the safety of workers while maintaining efficient operations is paramount. Leveraging AI and robotics, innovative solutions are now emerging to address these critical aspects. This blog explores how advanced AI systems are revolutionizing construction site safety. Introduction Construction sites are inherently hazardous environments, requiring numerous safety protocols […]

PoseNet Pose Estimation model on Flo Edge One

Pose estimation on dancers

Pose estimation is a computer vision and deep learning method where the goal is to detect a person and their pose in a given image. This is done by locating specific landmarks like the head, shoulders, elbows, hands, hip, knees, feet, etc. By tracking the position and orientation of human body parts, a rough estimate […]

Mediapipe Gender detection model on Flo Edge One

Gender detection

In this blog, we are going to discuss yet another mini-project for novice AI explorers. A gender detection model, as basic as it might appear, might just be exactly what we need in the 21st century where everybody seems confu- nope. Not getting cancelled already. Anyway. A gender detection model is a simple classifier model […]

Age Detection using Haar Cascades on Flo Edge One

Haar cascade types of features

In this blog, we are going to discuss a fun project that’s built on a face detection model. Age detection can be used in the industry to customize ads in stores to see what groups of people are most likely to buy the product. It can also be used in forensic sciences, where often only […]

Mediapipe Hand Pose detection on Flo Edge One

Hand detection and landmarking

Like Tensorflow, Mediapipe is a framework used to build machine learning models and deploy them. The model we will be talking about in this blog is Mediapipe’s Hand landmark model that is trained on over 30K real life images. Mediapipe is the perfect API because it is light weight and it contains everything you need […]

Semantic Segmentation using Deeplabv3 on Flo Edge One

Semantic segementation on bus

Let’s take a look at a deep learning algorithm called semantic segmentation today. It is technically an extension to object detection where instead of bounding the rough region containing the object in a box, it classifies each pixel in that region as part of the object or not part of it. This essentially creates segments […]

MiDaS Depth Estimation Model on Flo Edge One

Depth Map of various images

This is an introduction to a machine learning model called MiDaS that can be used with the Flo Edge One. You can easily use this model to create AI applications using Flo Edge as well as many other ready-to-use Flo Edge GPU models. Before we get into that, let’s take a quick look at the […]

People detection and counting using YOLOv5 on Flo Edge One

People Detection using FLO EDGE

In this blog we will be seeing how YOLOv5 can be used for people detection and counting. Our dataset is a variety of clips from an India vs. Pakistan cricket match, covering all your favourite shots and moments! Yes, including all the random clips of camera wala dada focusing on pretty women in the crowd […]

How Edge AI is revolutionizing Internet of things

Interconnected networks

The Internet of Things (IoT) and artificial intelligence (AI) are two technologies that have been rapidly advancing in recent years. IoT refers to the interconnectivity of devices and sensors that can collect and exchange data, while AI involves the development of algorithms and software that can perform intelligent tasks. These technologies are becoming increasingly integrated, […]
