AI VISUAL MONITORING

Most deployments are live within 7–14 days of the initial assessment. The process has five stages:

• Week 1: Operational assessment — camera inventory, use case prioritisation, integration mapping.
• Weeks 1–2: Edge machine installation and camera connection.
• Day 7–14: Go-live with baseline AI models. Dashboard active.
• Weeks 2–6: Real-world data collection for the first retraining cycle.
• Month 2 onwards: First improved models redeployed. Continuous improvement from here.

OCTOps is live in days, not months. The baseline models work from day one — and improve from day two

No. OCTOps is designed to work with the cameras you already have. The platform connects to existing IP cameras, CCTV systems, and industrial cameras via your network — no replacement, no new cabling, no hardware lock-in.

The only hardware requirement is an RTSP stream from your cameras, which is a standard setting on most IP cameras. If yours don’t currently have this enabled, our team can assist with configuration during onboarding.

OCTOps has been deployed across multiple facilities without a single camera being replaced.

OCTOps uses a six-step continuous improvement cycle: Deploy → Collect → Annotate → Retrain → Redeploy → Repeat.

After the baseline models go live, the edge machine continuously collects footage from your specific environment. OCTOps specialists annotate this data — labelling what the AI should have detected, what it correctly identified, and what it missed. The annotated dataset is used to retrain your models, which are then redeployed with measurably better accuracy.

This cycle repeats indefinitely. Each iteration produces a model that knows your facility better — your equipment types, your lighting conditions, your production rhythms, your defect patterns.

OCTOps is proven across manufacturing, logistics and warehousing, construction, and commercial facilities. Any operation that relies on visual oversight – quality control lines, inventory management, equipment monitoring, or workplace safety is a strong fit. We also support custom model development for niche industry requirements.

Multiple capabilities can run simultaneously on the same camera feed. OCTOps has seven built-in capabilities: Labour analytics, Inventory management, Equipment panel monitoring, Visual quality inspection, Safety management, AI system integration, and AI model enhancement.

For example, a single camera on a production floor can simultaneously monitor worker PPE compliance, detect equipment panel anomalies, and track zone activity — without requiring separate hardware or separate vendor contracts for each.

Yes. OCTOps is designed to feed into your existing workflows rather than replace them. Integration options include:

• ERP systems: Inventory counts and labour data feed directly into your ERP without manual data entry.
• PLC integration: For visual inspection, the system can communicate directly with your PLC to halt a machine the moment a defect is detected — before the faulty unit is sealed or dispatched.
• Production management systems: Man-hour data matched to PLC output can be fed into your production management platform for cross-site performance comparison.

Custom API connections are also available for systems not covered by standard integrations.
