Giraffe AI

The Giraffe Edge Controller makes use of an in-house trained AI model in order to detect different activities on the site being protected. This is achieved using both software and hardware. The hardware is in the form of the Google Coral AI accelerator, with a less powerful software only fallback should the Google Coral become unavailable.

Further information about the AI configuration can be found in the camera setup or Virtual Security Guard pages, but a brief summary of the different AI levels can be found below:

AI level	Platform feature	Provided by
Motion	Provides alerts of movement/changes within a scene	Software: keyframe differences
AI	Provides alerts of movement/changes within a scene, after filtering for & classifying human/vehicle movement	Hardware: Google Coral + Motion software
Virtual Security Guard	Provides alerts as above + issues an automated, targeted talkdown alert to the site	Hardware + software (as above) + Cloud Filtering + VSG
