Rostec's technology partner, NtechLab, has presented video analytics based on artificial intelligence that automatically finds unapproved graffiti and advertising in the urban environment.
The system processes video streams from public transport cameras and stationary urban devices, records violations, and transmits data to relevant services. The algorithm is configured so that legal street art and artistic murals do not fall within its field of attention.
Alexey Palamarchuk, CEO of NtechLab, noted that one of the acute urban problems is petty vandalism, including unauthorized inscriptions on fences, building facades, and garages. According to him, the new solution allows for the prompt detection and elimination of such violations, which ultimately improves the visual environment of cities.
Currently, the technology is being tested in a limited mode in several constituent entities of the Russian Federation. By the end of this year, it is planned to expand its use to several large cities in the country.
