ITRI Introduces Artificial Intelligence Applications for Smart Homes and Smart Cities at CES 2018CES 2018--The Industrial Technology Research Institute (News - Alert) (ITRI), Taiwan's largest and one of the world's leading high-tech applied research institutions, today announced it will introduce and demonstrate artificial-intelligence (AI) applications for smart homes and smart cities at its booth Tech East, LVCC South Hall 2 - 25611 at CES (News - Alert) 2018. Two of its AI technologies are CES 2018 Innovation Awards Honorees: The Intelligent Vision System for Companion Robots plays Scrabble; the Handheld Pesticide Residue Detector determines if the amount of pesticide residues is safe while washing fruits and vegetables and lets the user know when washing is complete. Another AI application, DeepLook, is a large-scale cloud-based video analytics technology to integrate video streaming and computing resources for video analysis and identification for tracking stolen vehicles, detecting tailgating and monitoring suspicious activities. This press release features multimedia.

(Photo: Business Wire) ITRI's seven AI applications for smart homes and smart cities at CES 2018 also include: Genki Bot, which uses AI to optimize a user's sleep environment; ITRI MusicAI, which classifies musical genres and composes new music. LIM-3D, a multi-layer 3D antenna design and manufacturing technology. Optical Camera Communications (OCC) technology, which utilizes LEDs and smartphone camera to achieve visible light communications, introducing a new way of distributing and displaying information. All technologies demonstrate ITRI's innovation capability of offering breakthrough solutions for smart living. ITRI's Intelligent Vision System for Companion Robots, a CES 2018 Innovation Awards Honoree, integrates AI, 3D vision recognition, and eye-hand coordination technologies to play Scrabble and learn from experience. ITRI's Intelligent Vision System for Companion Robots delivers the following technology breakthroughs:
The Handheld Pesticide Residue Detector is easy to operate and read. The user pushes one button to activate the detector, and places the detector in water with the fruits or vegetables. The detector displays lights on the wireless charger indicating results. A red flashing light indicates danger, meaning further washing is needed; a yellow flashing light displays while washing is in progress; and a green flashing light signals that washing is complete. The Handheld Pesticide Residue Detector includes patented technology innovations that make the portable, affordable, real-time pesticide residue detector possible. It employs a "Fabry-Perot Detection Spectrum (News - Alert) System" and a "Dynamic Degradative Algorithm."
ITRI's DeepLook Helps Fight Crime ITRI is also featuring at CES 2018 its game-changing technology, DeepLook, for city security surveillance. DeepLook is a large-scale cloud-based video analytical technology that integrates video streaming and computing resources. DeepLook monitors traffic activities so that public safety and law enforcement agencies can respond rapidly to reported incidents. It enables license plate recognition, video condensation, and camera network monitoring. It can track stolen vehicles or detect tailgating events. It leverages existing video surveillance infrastructure and incorporates cloud computing capabilities to enhance scalability and flexibility of incident analysis, and mass-scale video analysis, condensation, and summarization. DeepLook can integrate in seconds any video or image analytical engines (including the GPU supported AI/DNN model), and it automates and transforms time- and resource-intensive chores into ready information.
