Horus
 Horus is a secure, offline, AI-powered video
monitoring system with real-time object detection
that protects your home and properity.
- Watch (and control) your cameras, listen through them and talk
- View object detection in real-time
- Control object and audio detection of what each camera should watch and listen for (people, cars, animals, bark, alarm, conversation, music, etc).
- Browse detected events in a timeline from multiple cameras
- Use AI Search to locate events.
- Facial recognition.
- Analyze how an object traveled across camera view with points where it appeared, disappeared, and its movement path
- Manage your users & permissions
Horus outperforms a team of full-time security guards when it comes to
monitoring cameras and responding to events.
It can be scaled up to observe large construction sites with
multi-story buildings, or scaled down to watch and listen the
perimeter of your Sprinter van detecting animals, people, sounds, etc.
Privacy by Design
All consumer-grade video monitoring systems
suffer from a major design flaw: "Big Brother"
cloud-hosted architecture.
They sell you "smart cameras" (cameras with
built-in computers and WIFI) that stream your
footage to cloud. You have zero control over
who can access your live camera feeds or how your
video footage is being used. They own your
data. There is always a possibility of your footage and
live camera feeds being accessed by other
individuals: vendor spying, hackers, foreign
governments, police, local authorities, etc.
With Horus, its impossible for someone else to
access your cameras or recorded footage. Horus is
the opposite of "Big Brother". It's a self-contained
system with built-in AI. It's designed to work
offline, requiring no internet connection. All
processing is done locally, on the device.

AI Power
Horus is self-contained with extremely powerful
built-in AI capabilities, with multiple types of
artificial intelligence working together, such
as computer vision real-time object detection,
language models, and generative AI.
Horus recognizes objects seen on camera and tracks their movement. It
understands what it's looking at and remembers key aspects of what it
has seen. Once it detects an object of interest, you can locate it
using AI-powered search.
AI Search
AI Search helps you find relevant footage and object detection
details such as motion paths. It understands the meaning and context
of your search queries. You can search in over 80 human
languages. Horus understands the relationship between words, images,
videos and sounds.
