AI-Based CCTV Analytics

Real-time AI-driven face and vehicle recognition for enhanced security and operational efficiency in APSCSCL Warehouses.

APSCSCL Smart Surveillance Hackathon

The APSCSCL Smart Surveillance Hackathon (April 2025 Challenge) sought innovative AI solutions for video analytics using existing CCTV infrastructure. Key objectives included enhancing warehouse security, improving operational efficiency, and enabling real-time monitoring through advanced object detection, recognition, and event analysis. Our project directly addresses these critical needs.

Our Innovative Solution

👤 Face Recognition

We employ ArcFace, a cutting-edge deep learning model for highly accurate face feature extraction, integrated via the InsightFace library. This system reliably identifies authorized personnel in real-time, enhancing access control and enabling precise tracking of individuals within warehouse premises.

🚗 Vehicle Recognition & Tracking

Our vehicle analysis module uses YOLOv8 for robust vehicle detection. Subsequently, PaddleOCR (with OpenALPR as an alternative) performs license plate recognition. This dual system allows for automated logging of vehicle entries/exits, tracking movement, and flagging unauthorized vehicles, streamlining logistics and bolstering site security.

System Architecture

Our system architecture is designed for scalability and real-time processing, integrating multiple AI models and data streams efficiently.
