Arden.ai V1 Server

Description

Arden AI Server is an on-premise, high-performance video analytics and management platform designed to transform any IP camera network into a fully autonomous, AI-driven security system. It combines real-time object detection, advanced event classification, and flexible integrations—making it equally at home in luxury residential, commercial, storage-facility or daycare environments. Can Run 4-8 Cameras Depending on resolution

Core Capabilities

• Real-Time Object Detection & Classification
  – Detects and tags people, vehicles (with make/model/year), animals and more, with confidence thresholds you control.
  – License-Plate Recognition (LPR) module captures plate number, timestamp, and high-res snapshots for rapid lookup.

• Video Management & Search
  – Automatically archives AI-classified clips and generates an interactive 24-hour timeline.
  – Search by object type, timestamp

• Voice & Display Responses
  – Triggers pre-recorded or TTS-generated announcements (e.g., “Please step back behind the fence”) via local speakers, Alexa or Arden Touch displays.
  – Video overlays pushed to TVs/tablets when events occur.

• Automation & Integrations
  – Native HTTP/Webhook API for integration with home-automation hubs (Hubitat, Home Assistant, Control4) and cloud services.
  – Pushover, SMS or email notifications with embedded snapshots or clip links.

• Flexible Deployment & Scaling
  – Stackable architecture to run multiple servers on premises or at different locations. 
  – Supports RAID/DAS storage arrays for months of continuous recording.

• Security & Privacy
  – Fully local processing—no footage or metadata leaves your network unless you choose to stream externally.
  – Tailscale integration for true VPN access

Technical Architecture

1. Video Ingestion: ONVIF/RTSP inputs from any IP camera.

2. Camera Per Server: 4-8 Depending on Resolution.

3. AI Inference Engine: Runs optimized YOLO-based and custom models in parallel for object, behavior and LPR detection.

4. Database & Storage: Metadata indexed in SQLite or PostgreSQL; video stored on local NAS or cloud-mounted volumes.

5. Web-UI & Mobile: Responsive dashboard with live view, clip review, and user-management.

Key Benefits

• Ultra-Low False-Positive Rates—advanced filtering and behavior-based checks keep alerts meaningful.

• Rapid ROI—automated perimeter protection, revenue opportunities (paid camera access), and work-order automation for security teams
