Real-time Protection for Individuals – Privacy-Compliant and Innovative.
Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an indispensable tool in many industries and can also enhance the safety of employees, patients, and residents. With the enormous power of AI comes the responsibility to protect sensitive data and adhere to the highest privacy standards. But how can AI enhance systems without compromising privacy?
#Artificial Intelligence #Alarming
The answer lies in smart technology that unites security, sustainability, and data protection. This is where the partnership between UMB and novalink[i] comes in. UMB is integrating novalink's highly developed AI alerting solutions into its portfolio, thereby providing its customers with innovative, secure, and responsible technologies.
Rethinking patient safety: AI-supported patient monitoring
In healthcare, every second counts. novalink's AI solutions provide real-time monitoring systems that are seamlessly integrated into the novaalert alerting software. They are designed to immediately detect critical situations - be it a fall in a nursing home, an epileptic seizure or a lost patient. The technology is based on algorithms that analyze motion data and accurately identify anomalies. The systems use a combination of neural networks and machine learning models that are continuously trained to recognize specific movement patterns - such as unusual twitches or sudden immobility - and react within milliseconds.
Sophisticated and data protection-compliant solutions
What sets these solutions apart is their technically sophisticated, privacy-compliant approach. Instead of collecting personal data, all footage is pixelated in real time so that faces or other identifiable features are invisible. The AI analyzes only anonymized motion vectors, which are processed locally on specially secured devices. There is no transmission to the cloud, no storage of images, and no invasion of privacy. This approach not only complies with the European General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), but also sets a new standard for the ethical use of AI[ii]. For UMB's customers, this means a solution that makes everyday care safer, reduces staff workload, and protects patient dignity.
Precision and protection in industry and administration
The AI-supported monitoring of novalink also ensures preventive protection at the highest level in industrial companies, public institutions and schools. Imagine the following scenario: A camera detects an unauthorized person on the company’s premises, reports a potential accident in the production hall or identifies a suspicious object in a classroom. Thanks to the integration with novaalert software, such events are detected in real time and reported via channels such as mobile applications, MS Teams or even voice announcements, so that employees can act immediately.
This functionality is based on a powerful combination of image recognition algorithms and adaptive machine learning models. The systems process video locally on edge computing devices equipped with specialized processors to minimize latency and optimize data flows.
Recognize potential dangers at an early stage
For intrusion and theft protection, novalink systems can immediately detect and report unauthorized persons or unusual movement patterns. License plate recognition automatically controls access to factory premises to prevent unauthorized entry.
When it comes to early detection of potential dangers in government offices or educational institutions, AI can also prevent violence by recognizing escalations and enabling timely intervention. Weapons or dangerous objects can be identified before an incident occurs. For example: When an object, such as an abandoned bag, is detected, AI compares its contours and position to a trained dataset to determine whether it is a potential threat - in less than a second. At the same time, privacy is maintained: people are pixelated and the data remains in the local system. For UMB customers, this means that they have access to a security solution that is not only technically precise, but also legally compliant - a decisive advantage in times of strict data protection regulations.[iii].
Sustainability and efficiency: responsible AI
AI can offer far more than just security - it optimizes processes and reduces resource consumption. novalink's solutions process data locally, which eliminates the need for energy-intensive cloud services. At the same time, intelligent algorithms control processes in such a way that less energy is wasted - for example, by detecting inefficient processes in production or unnecessary power consumption in buildings at an early stage. A concrete example: In a care home, AI can automatically adjust lighting and heating to the presence of people. AI therefore enables IT solutions that combine ecological and social responsibility.
