About Irisity
At Irisity, we develop video analytics software for the security industry with great respect for personal integrity and privacy, focusing on detecting suspicious activity rather than exposing personal identity. Our system excels at the automatic detection of unwanted activity, such as intruders at construction sites at night, or people climbing roofs or breaking windows. We focus on detecting and preventing criminal activity, and never do things like registering the identity and whereabouts of regular citizens. At sensitive installations such as schools, our system even white-masks all individuals to hide their identity, to make sure that the invasion of privacy is kept at a zero level. This way, our system can detect what happens and alert, leading to reduce crime rates and increase safety without any negative effects on personal integrity.
