Smart Retail: Edge AI People Counting
Real-Time ROI Analytics | High-Performance Low-Power Vision AI
Transform retail foot traffic into actionable data. Our demo features ROI-based counting and dwell-time analytics running entirely at the edge on the Grinn GenioBoard - zero-latency insights with 100% on-device privacy.
The Efficiency-First Edge AI Stack
CrossPlay Integration: A versatile streaming and interaction stack that brings desktop-class connectivity to embedded HMIs. It enables seamless WebRTC remote interaction and real-time Vision AI overlays within a unified Qt-based architecture.
Grinn GenioBoard (Genio 700): Built on an advanced 6nm process, this octa-core SoC delivers "desktop-class" performance with outstanding thermal efficiency. Optimized for 24/7 operation, the board features a typical power consumption of just ~6W, making it ideal for fanless, energy-efficient retail deployments. While our 42" demo runs in Full-HD, the board’s HDMI and DisplayPort outputs natively support up to 4K60.
DeepX M1 NPU Acceleration: By offloading AI workloads to the M.2 PCIe accelerator, we achieve elite-level throughput (25 TOPS) at a mere 3W-5W. This allows the CPU to stay cool and responsive, ensuring a lag-free Full-HD touch interface even during peak traffic.
Ready for EU CRA Compliance: Built with security in mind, featuring the Infineon OPTIGA™ Trust M module. This provides hardware-based key storage and cryptographic integrity, simplifying the path to meeting Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) requirements for IoT devices.
Core Demo Features
ROI-Based Counting: Define specific "Power Zones" to track engagement with premium store displays.
Dwell-time Analysis: Quantify how long customers interact with products to optimize floor layouts.
Bi-Directional Flow: Accurate entry/exit tracking to calculate real-time conversion rates.
Privacy by Design: No video data leaves the device. Local processing ensures 100% data sovereignty.
Modern Interactive UI: Experience a lag-free, high-refresh dashboard with real-time telemetry overlays. Effortlessly manage multitasking and touch interactions without impacting AI detection performance.
Manufacturer: DeepX
The DEEPX DX-M1 M.2 module brings server-grade AI
inference directly to edge devices. Delivering 25 TOPS
of performance at just 2-5W, the module achieves 20x
better performance efficiency (FPS/W) than GPGPUs
while maintaining GPU-level AI accuracy.
