Real-time CCTV threat analytics

AI Sentinel

A multi-camera video analytics platform that watches live feeds and raises instant operator alarms for persons, weapons, groups, loitering, no-go zone breaches, and people or vehicles approaching a perimeter fence.

• Processes up to 10 simultaneous RTSP feeds on a single RTX 4090 server
• Pipeline being re-engineered to run 20–30 cameras on 8 GB GPUs with higher accuracy
• Turned security-force requirements (armed-individual alerts, uniformed vs non-uniformed, 4–5 person groups) into a product spec and shipped it
• Operator dashboard with zone drawing, event timeline and alarm acknowledgement

ATLAS

An open-source intelligence workspace that fuses live video and news feeds onto a map, with an AI analyst you can question. Every answer is grounded in retrieved sources.

• Live RTSP and RSS ingestion with geotagged events on an interactive map
• RAG chat assistant on a locally hosted Qwen 32B model via Ollama: no data leaves the server
• Query rewriting, deflection detection, date-context injection and threaded follow-ups
• Built and delivered end to end

AI sourcing workbench for importers

Quolate

My own B2B product. Drop in supplier quotations in any format, and Quolate extracts the line items, classifies HS codes and calculates true landed cost so buyers can compare suppliers like for like.

• Universal document ingestion: PDFs, spreadsheets, scans and emails
• Landed cost across Pakistan’s five-levy import duty stack (CD, ACD, RD, Sales Tax, WHT)
• HS code auto-classification and a side-by-side supplier comparison matrix
• Tender intelligence module that scrapes public procurement portals and pushes WhatsApp alerts

Facial + voice analysis for training

AI E-Learning & Soft-Skills Coach

A learning platform that watches and listens while learners practise real conversations, then scores behaviour such as eye contact, tone, empathy and pacing, and coaches them on it.

• Facial recognition and voice analysis pipeline scoring learner behaviour in real time
• Grew to roughly 25,000 users across multiple licensee organisations
• 45% higher engagement and 2.1× course completion
• A government training rollout reached 500+ learners in six months and cut delivery cost by 27%

Virtual Intelligent Responsive Avatar

VIRA

A conversational video interface: you join a video call and talk to a lifelike AI avatar that listens, reasons with an LLM and answers back in real time.

• Speech-in, speech-out loop with LLM dialogue management
• Talking-head avatar rendered in the browser
• React front end with camera and mic device selection

Vehicles, potholes and cracks

Traffic & Road-Surface AI

Road-facing vision systems: one counts and classifies traffic, the other surveys motorway surfaces for potholes and cracks from a moving vehicle.

• YOLOv8 traffic monitoring at 97% accuracy
• Pothole and crack detection on motorway surfaces
• Geo-tagged defect logs for maintenance crews

Visual radar for vessels

Maritime Collision Avoidance

Detects and tracks vessels approaching or leaving a jetty and alerts watch-keepers when a craft enters a close-proximity zone.

• Small-craft detection on water, including in glare and haze
• Track-based approach and departure logic
• Alarm zones configurable per berth

Borescope defect detection

Turbine Engine Inspection AI

AI that turns borescope footage from inside turbine engines into defect reports, flagging dents, nicks and blade damage that inspectors could miss.

• Borescope software that detects dents and blade damage, developed with an aviation engine OEM
• Frame-by-frame defect detection with annotated evidence for the inspection record
• Runway foreign-object-debris (FOD) detection concept combining AI vision and radar

Speech-to-speech, many languages

Multilingual Speech Translator

Real-time speech translation that keeps the conversation flowing: speak in one language and hear the reply in another.

• Streaming speech recognition, translation and synthesis
• Demonstrated across English, Japanese and more

Air-gapped document intelligence

Private On-Prem RAG

A fully private question-answering system over thousands of mixed documents, including scans, that runs on a single workstation with no cloud dependency.

• Qwen2.5 32B (4-bit) served with vLLM on an RTX 5090
• bge-large embeddings and Qdrant vector store
• OCR pipeline with PaddleOCR and Marker for scanned files

Seeing people with radio reflections

Device-Free WiFi Sensing

Uses WiFi channel state information (CSI) to detect people in a room with no camera and no phone. Built for evacuation sweeps and after-hours closing checks.

• Working ESP32 CSI prototype
• Porting to commodity router chipsets for whole-floor coverage
• Privacy-preserving: no images captured
