31.05 2018. In one of the Minsk schools, video cameras will recognize and count students. This was reported by the Director of "Synesis stratus" Sergey Poblaguev during the scientific and practical conference "Digital transformation of education".
In the capital's school began testing security system based on artificial intelligence. In the building and on the territory there are cameras that identify all visitors in real time on the principle of "friend-or-foe". The system is not only able to recognize (with an accuracy of 95-98%) and count students, but also instantly notify parents via a messenger notification when the child came to class or went home.
This platform was developed by the company "Synesis", which proposed to introduce it in one school as a pilot project. "Our group of companies has a few ideas on how to make some of the key processes in the school more effective. This is especially true of security issues, - said Sergey Poblaguev. - This can be done using the already available tools in service of our company. In particular, I'm talking about the Kipod video Analytics system, which is able to work with facial recognition, which, in our opinion, is more convenient than turnstiles and has additional advantages."
Students and staff will be entered into the database within one day. Further, the artificial intelligence he gathers and remembers information about them, about clothing, hairstyles or age-related changes. This will increase the recognition accuracy. Staff will no longer have to check attendance on the lists. And the information about non-registered people on-site immediately goes to the security service.
The introduction of such technologies is a matter of a large project that can be supported by the Ministry of education. "Such cooperation will be especially important when a competition is announced for the choice of an operator for the Republican system of public security monitoring. In my opinion, the integration of schools into this system is very important. We hope that the results of the pilot project will be of interest to the organizations responsible for Informatization," Sergey Poblaguev added.
