The Company expects to release its new SNAPvision software product line in the September quarter of 2017. A first-of-its-kind solution, the SNAPvision software combines 10 years of spiking neural networking development to provide facial and pattern recognition solutions for Homeland Security and Law Enforcement efforts in anti-terrorism and crime prevention.
The SNAPvision software commercialises the unique capabilities of a spiking neural network, including one-shot learning and exceptional performance in low-light, lowresolution imaging environments. The SNAPvision software will enable law-enforcement and intelligence agencies to rapidly perform forensic and live-search across large video networks, acting as a force multiplier to speed the detection of subjects of interest.
The Company also expects to release the SNAPvision hardware accelerator card in the third quarter of 2017. The SNAPvision accelerator card will enable high-speed, highdensity video analytic acceleration of multiple high-definition channels, reducing latency, increasing throughput and reducing total cost of ownership for large-scale installations.
