Plainsight, Ericsson Launch 5G Partnership for Vision AI Solutions

Plainsight, a leader in proven vision AI, is teaming with Ericsson to develop and manage computer vision solutions for 5G-powered video streaming and edge-based data analytics.

Combining the low latency and reliable throughput of Ericsson’s 5G network solutions with Plainsight’s computer vision expertise, centralized platform and suite of managed services will equip communications service providers (CSPs) and enterprise customers with computer vision-based applications to see the full benefit of higher-quality streaming video optimized for visual data collection and processing.

The speed and reliability of 5G networks and edge computing remove many of the bottlenecks between end-user devices and real-time video applications. Continuous connectivity benefits consumers and enterprises with always-on access to interactive, autonomous and decision-making insights.

To minimize the response time of video streaming, operators and providers will require network optimization to deliver low-latency applications with highest-quality experiences.

The partnership brings together the real-time quality of service (QoS) optimizations of streaming video over cellular networks and real-time computer vision insights from custom-built solutions at the edge. Together, they will empower CSPs to leverage the latest technology for enhancing industry-specific business models with centralized, repeatable solutions to address evolving challenges, rising consumer expectations and increasing competitive pressure.

The partners will focus initially on supporting enterprises in the manufacturing, retail and hospitality sectors with production-ready solutions.
