Company’s Ground-Breaking AI-Based Facial Recognition Technology Set to Revolutionize Two Huge Markets – Security & Advertising

VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) Unveils Tech That Not Only Detects Threats But Will Transform Retail Spaces into Secure Areas while Increasing Sales

VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) has turned science fiction into reality with the unveiling of its facial recognition technology that can identify threats faster than anything out on the market today …

Media today has seemingly been filled with a constant stream of stories of mass shootings and bombings in high capacity public areas. Calls for heightened security everywhere are justified, especially given that both mass shootings^[1] and domestic terrorism^[2] are on the rise.

Social media giant, Facebook spent $22.6 million in private security to protect Mark Zuckerberg in 2018, up from $7.3 million in 2017.  The world’s richest man, Jeff Bezos has private security that is costing Amazon $1.6 million per annum. Trump’s $716 billion dollar^[3] defense bill is growing by the second.  

In the specific case of weapons detection, VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp.’s (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) software utilizes advanced, purpose-built, machine learning algorithms to recognize weapons in the field of view. Because the technology operates optically, the weapons must be fully visible or partially visible (a handgun in a waistband).  Any existing CCTV infrastructure can be used and does not get negatively impacted by scale. The software can also monitor feeds from 4 cameras or 4000 cameras with no degradation in capability.

“there is a 90% probability that a person is carrying a rifle”

As long as the camera can see the object (long range or short range) VSBLTY can alert on the object, classifying it as a threat and providing context to the security operator with a confidence level (“there is a 90% probability that a person is carrying a rifle”). There are cameras that can see 3 meters as well as cameras that can recognize high resolution at over 100 meters. VSBLTY can work with either camera option as long as they provide a high-resolution feed.

In just four years, the combined value of the Digital Display & Security Markets is projected to reach $219 billion. Meanwhile, the global facial recognition market is forecast to be worth U.S. $6.5 billion by 2021, up from US$2.3 billion in 2016, according to the latest estimates from research company Technavio.

As an example of what escalating facial recognition demand is doing to company valuations – China’s SenseTime, which produces facial recognition software, is now valued at over $4.5 billion[5] – and that’s just five years after the company was founded in 2014.  

VSBLTY (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) is presenting solutions that experts say go beyond that of SenseTime and it has a market cap 148x smaller than SenseTime right now.

Most public venue security systems in place today are not only slow and cumbersome, but also less effective. VSBLTY is the only global enterprise solution that integrates Interactive Touch, Facial Analytics^TM, and Advanced Object Recognition by using proprietary and ground-breaking displays, cameras, and software to solve these problems.

One Reason Why VSBLTY Is a Company To Watch

Compared to their competitors, VSBLTY’s (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) market cap pales in comparison.  VSBLTY has an advantage with superior technology and two product offerings to earn revenue.

Unlike security threat detection options like that offered by Liberty Defense Technologies and Patriot One Technologies, the VSBLTY (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) solution is unique because of  its software as a service (SaaS) option that give added value to clients even when there is no imminent threat.

Where its competitors successfully reduce threats, VSBLTY (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) can reduce threats AND improve marketing and sales.

The Competition Does Not Come Close

There are some very interesting and compelling technologies that utilize AI to identify weapons. Competitors in the security sector such as Liberty Defense and Patriot One, offer “cognitive” capability that can detect weapons using radar-type technologies. Because of this, the sensors can be hidden behind walls or within structures so that, to the person representing a threat, it is not obvious that the technology is being used.

But the Achilles Heel of this technology approach is that, like an X-Ray screen scanner at an airport, the threat cannot be detected until and unless the person representing the threat (carrying a weapon) physically walks through the area that is being scanned.

While this is effective technology there is no lead time. By the time the weapon is detected the threat is already in an area where damage is probable.

The enormous benefit to VSBLTY (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) technology is that it provides security professionals with an alert before the person or threat is in an area where damage is more likely to be done. The security team has a legitimate shot at interdiction and engagement before it is plausibly too late.

And VSBLTY does all of this while simultaneously providing the Facial Recognition and Audience Measurement capability (# of people, gender, age, engagement level, dwell time, sentiment). So a venue can enlist VSBLTY technology to not only provide key crowd analytics but also to look for banned persons (real-time biometric scanning against a “watchlist”) and weapons.

Why is this important?

Because VSBLTY can not only detect one or more humans in an image, but it can compare the faces against an enrolled database designed with security enforcement in mind. This method of security was utilized for a security perimeter over a 5-day event of the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, through a 3 story display that took over the event’s parking lot, with 19 IP cameras deployed, powered by VSBLTY VectorTM.

The technology ascribes a “confidence rating” based on metrics to remove false positives and is robust and scalable with cloud infrastructure for rapid matching. The system includes options for alert notifications to give to security enforcement.

WATCH: VSBLTY – Disrupter in Security

Going digital: VSBLTY AI can watch stores, alert workers or upsell a customer with their favorite products

In April, Walmart announced that thousands of cameras were installed in a 50,000 sq ft store in New York to test out their new AI system. Walmart envisions using them, combined with other technology like sensors on shelves, to monitor the store in real-time so its workers can quickly react to replenish products or fix other problems. The technology will also be able to track when shelves need to be restocked or if shopping carts are running low.

VSBLTY Groupe Technologies Corp. (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) has aggressively entered this space as a first-mover through its deployment of digital displays with in-built cameras for facial recognition, interactive marketing, and data management.

Key to their Digital Signage sales potential, VSBLTY can deliver extremely high customer engagement in a way that traditional point of sale and out of home advertising (traditional billboards and signage) can’t.

VSBLTY (CSE:VSBY) (OTC:VSBGF) brings the advantages of online advertising into the brick and mortar world of shopping, in real-time. Utilizing the emotion recognition from its FacialAnalyticsTM software the company can pull a customer in, move them around a store or venue, and ultimately increase a brand or retailer’s return on investment.

With non-invasive, and enticing real-time interaction, VSBLTY provides significantly increased value to its clients, through not only enhanced security but increased sales as well.
