Twenty-five years ago GPS became accurate to within a meter. This began a quiet revolution in the commercial space, suddenly entire new markets around GPS devices, surveying, fleet management, and navigation were made possible. GPS is now indispensable. Kubia aims to create the same level of disruption with the accurate positioning of assets of a physical space.
Kubia's secret is the spatial digital twin (SDT), a virtual one-to-one representation of a physical space. This additional information is used to dramatically increase the accuracy we can achieve when estimating the position of subjects.
Kubia is the next generation of location based monitoring and analytics using existing security camera infrastructure. Existing technologies use older computer vision techniques to detect subjects of interest and estimate their position. Kubia believes we can do much better by creating a digital twin of the physical space using Gaussian Splatting, and leveraging this additional information to more accurately place subjects of interest within the digital twin in three dimensions. Instead of knowing there was a person at a position within a meter at best, now analysts can have access to positional information with accuracy approaching a few inches. This in conjunction with the digital twin allows for real-time dashboards and analysis of historical information never before possible.
Other camera tracking solutions either use multiple cameras to triangulate the position of a subject, or a single camera to estimate the depth to a subject. Calibrating the position and orientation of these cameras can be difficult, and any error in calibration is multiplied many times when estimating the position of a subject. Kubia is able to automatically perform calibration of camera positions using the digital twin, allowing for simple, easy, and highly accurate positioning of the cameras themselves within the digital twin. In addition, Kubia utilizes features (such as edges and corners) extracted from the live video to estimate the position of tracked subjects. This minimizes error, and allows for accuracy to be increased as more information becomes available.
Kubia's unique process also allows us to run seamlessly on dynamic cameras, such as drones, in real-time.
Our fundamental belief is simple, AI doesn't replace people, it augments them. Kubia enhances the capabilities of humans by providing a real-time snapshot of their physical space. Whether in manufacturing, logistics, retail, or any other industry; Kubia's integration of AI with the SDT ensures you have the tools you need to make informed decisions and respond quickly to change.
Let Kubia's AI act as a lens: quickly transforming large amounts of data into a new perspective. This lets people excel at our strength: rapidly consuming this information and making informed decisions.Curious about what we're doing? Drop us a line and we can chat.
