AI for the Good, Building a New Scene for Smart Cities - The Theme of the 8th Session of the "Youth Federation Role Models" Speech by Guest Yang Fan
Recently, Yang Fan, CEO of Minivision Technology, appeared in the "Outstanding Strugglers - Youth Federation Role Models" column to tell the story of the youth entrepreneurship and struggle history of "AI for the Good, Building a New Scene of Smart City", demonstrating their youthful strength in the construction of the "Strong Wealth, Beautiful High" New Nanjing. This program is organized by the Nanjing Municipal Committee of the Communist Youth League and the Nanjing Youth Federation, organized by the Nanjing Youth Chamber of Commerce, the Nanjing Youth Federation News and Publishing and New Media Sectors, and Longhu Network. It is also co organized by Jiangsu Qidi Science and Technology Park Development Co., Ltd. and Jiangsu Youth Entrepreneurship Park.
Minivision AI, Helping the Frontline Anti epidemic War
During the 2020 pandemic, Minivision Technology actively responded to the call to devote itself to the fight against the epidemic through technology. During the anti epidemic process, there was a warm set of numbers that made Yang Fan particularly profound. The first number, 7, took only 7 days from the establishment of the anti epidemic special group, to the internationally pioneered mask recognition and non-contact temperature measurement technology, and to the official launch of the AI epidemic prevention community emergency plan. The team has developed an AI solution of "body temperature measurement+mask detection", which maximizes the potential risk of the epidemic by utilizing the various capabilities of AI facial recognition.
The second number is 100. In these 7 days, Minivision has over 100 partners from all over the world who have rushed back to join the AI epidemic front line. They are pioneers in the epidemic and also the most beautiful rebels. At that time, it was a freezing winter and there was no construction team. My friends brought screwdrivers from home to the front line of the community. Since many communities covered by the construction have suspected cases of COVID-19, construction cannot be carried out during the day. Many children work tirelessly from 1am to 6am every day, lying on the security booth during the day to make do with their homework. They also dare not go home, afraid of taking risks to their parents and children. Eating and taking a shower are also troublesome matters in their work. Everyone has a cold meal, often takes a cold shower, and lies in the car sleeping with clothes on. Whenever she sees this scene, Yang Fan feels both proud and heartbroken.
The third number, 69 million, with two numbers of 7 and 100, ensured the safety of travel for 69 million people during the epidemic prevention and control period. At the CCTV 315 Gala, many companies were exposed for allegedly abusing facial recognition technology, which also sparked widespread discussion on facial information security issues in society. More and more people began to doubt or even reject artificial intelligence technology. Yang Fan hopes that through these real stories, more people can see that there is also a group of companies like Minivision Technology, who embrace the concept of technology to revitalize the country and strive to realize the value of AI for the good.
Building a Better World with the Power of Technology
In the 14th Five Year Plan, it is pointed out to accelerate digital construction and build a digital China, including smart communities closely related to people's lives. The outline proposes to "promote community perception facilities, develop intelligent early warning, emergency rescue, and smart elderly care". Xiaoshi Technology is the leader of smart communities, and in this scenario, Minivision Technology has done a particularly important thing: using AI to make cameras speak, creating the Eye of the City, and guarding smart communities.
For example, in cases such as high-altitude throwing, Minivision's high-altitude throwing algorithm monitors and tracks all moving objects in the video in real-time, achieving intelligent monitoring and traceability of high-altitude throwing. For example, AI can also play a valuable role in caring for the elderly. In the smart community built by Xiaoshi, the elderly can be equipped with a one click help system. When the elderly accidentally falls or has other unexpected situations, they can directly seek help with one click. At the same time, if the camera in the associated area captures this image, the algorithm will also issue an alarm and promptly notify the property management personnel to come and help. At the same time, every elderly person living alone will be recorded for care. When the elderly person living alone has not gone out for a long time, or has not returned home for a long time, the algorithm will also give a warning. There are more than 30 algorithms, including flame and smoke recognition, electric vehicle entry recognition, illegal occupancy recognition, wall crossing detection, dog leash detection, etc., constantly guarding community safety.
Communities are the fundamental units of cities, and smart cities are also widely used scenarios for AI in urban governance. For example, the manhole cover is missing. Simply deploy the "City Eye" on the corresponding roads to monitor the manhole cover facilities in the area, and if lost, an automatic warning will be given. Compared to previous human observations, it is simpler and faster.
In addition, visual analysis can also be used to perceive and detect obstacles, road damage, road water accumulation, and road occupation. Minivision Technology has always believed that AI will change every bit of our lives and build a safe and happy smart city. Since its establishment, Minivision has always adhered to the original intention and mission of revitalizing the country through technology and promoting AI for the good. Minivision Technology is also making every effort to let technology bloom in the places where the Party and the people need it the most.
