Our Technology

Machine learning that works where it counts.

We design our own systems to deliver practical intelligence. Enhancing automation, improving efficiency, and delivering insight where speed and accuracy matter most.

More than just algorithms.

We build machine learning systems in-house, optimised for fast processing on embedded devices and scalable across cloud platforms. Our tech is efficient, adaptable, and ready for real-world use.

Biometric Recognition

Advanced biometric processing enables real-time recognition, age estimation, and liveness detection. Secure, accurate, and privacy-conscious identification across both embedded systems and cloud-based environments.

Predictive Restocking

Predictive stock monitoring uses machine learning to forecast inventory needs based on real-time and historical usage patterns, helping maintain optimal stock levels while reducing waste and operational inefficiencies.

Targeted Display

Audience matching uses real-time data to tailor content to viewer demographics, ensuring more relevant messaging, improved engagement, and smarter marketing at the point of interaction.

Anomaly Detection

Anomaly detection identifies unusual patterns or behaviours in system data, enabling automatic alerts and responses when activity deviates from expected norms, improving reliability, security, and operational awareness.

How machine learning powers our products.

We build machine learning systems in-house, optimised for fast processing on embedded devices and scalable across cloud platforms. Our tech is efficient, adaptable, and ready for real-world use.

Facial Recognition

Identify users or detect faces to personalise interactions or enforce access.

Age Estimation

Estimate age in real time using facial features for use in age-restricted environments.

ID Matching

Compare a live face with photo ID to verify identity securely and instantly.

Demographic Analysis

Determine user traits like age group and gender to inform display or data strategies.

Gaze Detection

Identify users or detect faces to personalise interactions or enforce access.

Expression Analysis

Read emotions through micro-expressions to trigger smarter responses.

Behaviour Tracking

Understand how users interact with your system — from approach to hesitation to use.

Audience Matching

Adapt marketing messages based on who’s watching, in real time.

Responsive Signage

Switch messages depending on dwell time, direction, or whether someone stops.

Predictive Restocking

Forecast when restocking is needed using usage patterns and environment signals.

Anomaly Detection

Identify anything that shouldn’t be happening — even if it has never occurred before.

Error Prevention

Spot early signs of failure or misalignment before they impact performance.

We don’t plug in third-party models.

We build our own.

Custom Algorythms

Each model is trained in-house on real-world behaviour, using data collected from the environments where it will actually operate. This ensures the system performs reliably under practical conditions, not just in theory.

Data Sovereignty

All data is handled within our own infrastructure, giving us complete control over how it’s collected, processed, and stored. Nothing is shared with third parties or external platforms.

Modular Design

The system is built as a set of modular components, allowing features to be added, removed, or updated without disrupting the core functionality. This makes it easy to adapt as needs evolve.

The value of smart vending.

Modern vending systems give businesses instant, reliable access to essential products while delivering long-term value through automation and insight.

Healthcare

Enhance safety, streamline operations, and respond to patient needs in real time with intelligent systems that observe, interpret, and adapt to dynamic clinical environments.

Transport

Support smooth passenger flow and improve service delivery with systems that monitor activity, adapt to demand, and respond to changing conditions across busy transit environments.

Hospitality

Create seamless, responsive guest experiences by using intelligent systems that adapt to customer behaviour, manage compliance, and optimise high-traffic environments in real time.

Retail

Deliver more relevant, efficient shopping experiences with systems that respond to customer demographics, monitor behaviour, and anticipate stock or service needs automatically.

Education

Enable more responsive learning environments through systems that track engagement, adapt content delivery, and support safety and access across campus spaces.

Government

Improve public service delivery and site security with intelligent systems that manage access, monitor behaviour, and adapt to the needs of civic environments in real time.

Built Responsibly

Intelligence with integrity.

Fully GDPR compliant

Our systems are designed to meet GDPR standards at every level, including lawful basis for processing, data minimisation, secure storage, and user access rights.

No biometric data storage

Facial recognition is used in real time only. No facial images or biometric data are stored, logged, or transmitted. All processing happens instantly, with no persistent record.

Transparent decision logic

All decisions follow defined, traceable logic. There are no black boxes — every outcome is driven by clear inputs, with consistent behaviour that can be explained and reviewed.
