Video analytics use cases to manage COVID-19 response
Four months into 2020, the world is facing a grave global health crisis: the outbreak of a novel coronavirus respiratory disease, COVID-19. Can new digital technology be used to help identify and mitigate the impact of COVID-19? Thankfully, the answer is yes. One technology now in the forefront of the global emergency is the use

Implementing a CPU-based real-time video analytics pipeline
With growth in available data and computation power, use of video analytics solutions has been growing visibly. Most real-time video analytics use-cases, however, require response times in milliseconds—a level of performance that both CPUs and GPUs cannot always meet when it comes to inference. Here we discuss implementation of a real-time video analytics pipeline on

Megh’s platform strategy
The demand for real-time stream processing is increasing rapidly with the explosion of data from the Web, sensors, IoT and mobile devices, and other sources. Enterprises want to process this data as it moves to create business value in areas such as: Finance (e.g., fraud detection, risk management) Sales and marketing (e.g., customer preferences) Operations

Megh’s flexible, high-performance deep learning engine
As deep learning (DL) becomes more pervasive, the need for efficient and fast computation is increasing. Traditional central processing units (CPUs) and graphical processing units (GPUs) are typically used for acceleration, despite the limiting nature of their fixed architectures. Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) have been highlighted for their flexibility, but until recently have fallen
