JON LEE FOUNDER, CEO of POLYTRONAI & VIZZIO.AI, expressed his enthusiasm for the partnership: "We are thrilled to partner with ASRock Industrial. Their expertise in industrial computing, combined with our AI-POWERED REAL-TIME DIGITAL TWIN technology, creates a formidable synergy that will drive significant advancements in smart manufacturing, smart city, safe city applications. Together, we are poised to unlock new levels of operational efficiency and productivity for our clients. By combining our advanced 3D modeling capabilities with ASRock Industrial's powerful Intel-based hardware with OPEN VINO, we are delivering powerful inferencing capabilities and real-time edge-based video analytics, enabling businesses to process data closer to the source.
This approach ensures faster decision-making, reduces latency, and enhances performance for critical applications in industries ranging from smart manufacturing to security and surveillance. Combining REAL-TIME 3D Scene and POLYTRON LIVE 3D, we optimize and deploy deep learning models across various Intel hardware, such as CPUs, integrated GPUs, FPGAs, and VPUs. The OPEN VINO toolkit is designed to help developers accelerate AI inference workloads, particularly in computer vision, natural language processing, and other machine learning tasks at the edge and in cloud environments.
James Lee, Chairman of ASRock Industrial added: "We are thrilled to partner with VIZZIO Technologies & POLYTRON.AI, it’s camera technology subsidiary. Their innovative approach to digital twin technology aligns perfectly with our mission to provide robust and reliable AI computing solutions for demanding environments. Together, we will push the boundaries of what's possible in real-time interactive digital twin applications. The first joint solutions are expected to be unveiled for Water Utilities, Energy Power Plants, Factories and Malls across South East Asia, China and Middle East, showcasing the potential of this groundbreaking partnership to reshape urban and industrial environments worldwide.”
ASRock Industrial’s range of Robust Edge AIoT Platform, designed to withstand the most challenging industrial environments, will now feature POLYTRON’s AI-driven REAL-TIME LIVE 3D capabilities. POLYTRON LIVE 3D cameras capture high-resolution video feeds and integrate them into a spatial 3D geometry at the edge, creating a dynamic LIVE virtual environment where real-time monitoring occurs. The combined offering introduces an innovative solution for autonomous surveillance within a photorealistic 3D virtual environment. The system employs an AI route-navigation engine that autonomously navigates and patrols a 3D virtual space, mimicking the actions typically performed by human security personnel during ground patrols. This approach eliminates the need for manual controls, such as mouse clicks or joystick manipulation, thereby enhancing the efficiency and reliability of surveillance operations.
“The collaboration with Polytron.ai marks a significant step forward in our commitment to providing state-of-the-art solutions for smart cities and Industry 4.0,” said James Lee, Chairman of ASRock Industrial. “By combining our robust hardware solutions with POLYTRON.AI’s LIVE 3D, we are creating a new standard for smart, real-time, photorealistic digital replica of the connected industrial environments.”
The first phase of the partnership will focus on deploying these integrated solutions in select pilot projects in Singapore, Middle East, South East Asia and China, with a broader rollout planned for later this year. These projects will showcase the transformative potential of AIoT + REAL-TiME Digital Twin technologies in real-world settings, demonstrating improved operational efficiencies, reduced costs, and enhanced overall performance.
Both POLYTRON.AI and ASRock Industrial are committed to continuous innovation and look forward to exploring new opportunities to expand their collaboration into other sectors, including defense, construction, facilities management, security & surveillance applications.
