Tokyo Century and NTT DOCOMO announced last week that they are signed a collaboration to globally expand the EDGEMATRIX edge-AI platform for video surveillance and monitoring provided by EDGEMATRIX.
EDGEMATRIX simplifies the implementation and management of edge AI for processing and storing video data captured with video cameras on location (edge) at factories, buildings and other outdoor and indoor locations.
The platform maps the locations of multiple Edge AI Box devices installed on site, monitors their operational status and enables the devices to be controlled remotely. Customers can purchase convenient and practical AI applications at the EDGEMATRIX Store for the simplified implementation of AI solutions for various surveillance and monitoring purposes. Tokyo Century and DOCOMO are now exploring opportunities to market and sell EDGEMATRIX services mainly in North America but also other overseas markets. DOCOMO is looking into conducting marketing and sales activities either on its own or through local sales partners.
Tokyo Century is considering options for providing customer financing and leasing, rental and subscription services for EDGEMATRIX devices and related equipment.
The two firms will now collaborate with diverse partners to expand the EDGEMATRIX ecosystem in Japan and other markets worldwide, helping customers to realize enhanced security, safety and efficiency in workplaces and across society through application of EDGEMATRIX edge-AI video solutions.
