Cerritos, CA (September 11, 2023) – Digital Watchdog® (DW), the industry leader in digital recorders, surveillance cameras, system peripherals and related management software announces our new Blackjack Ai appliances. The new, advanced products are the latest additions to DW’s growing line of products with artificial intelligence (AI), that can categorize objects and people in real time. These innovative video analytics solutions deliver rapid ROI by adding deep learning Ai capabilities to existing video streams connected to video surveillance systems powered by DW Spectrum IPVMS.

When paired with a system running DW Spectrum IPVMS, this Blackjack Ai Appliance recognizes objects and people in all connected streams by combining advanced algorithms and machine learning to analyze real-time video streams and provide comprehensive video analytics in a user-friendly, scalable solution. Available in a slim desktop or 2U rackmount housing, the appliances are NDAA/TAA compliant, including Windows 10® IoT OS on a separate SSD and supporting up to 64 secondary streams. The 2U rack-mountable hardware is also UL listed and features single and dual Intel® Xeon® processors, four (4) network ports, up to 64GB RAM, single and dual NVIDIA video cards and a dual power supply. The appliances come preloaded with four complimentary DW Ai Server licenses. The 2U rack-mountable models have a 5-year, on-site, Next Business Day* warranty to ensure peace of mind.
