About us

What's inside the band

We are a company that supplies partners worldwide with visual recognition technologies, based on artificial intelligence and machine learning. Eyedea Recognition was established in 2006 as a university spin-off of the Czech Technical University in Prague (CTU). The company was founded by a group of researchers from the Centre for Machine Perception, at the CTU. Our very first product was car licence plate recognition in 2006. To this day, we are collaborating with research teams and our products are based on the latest knowledge in AI and machine learning technologies.

Thanks to this, our products have a high success rate in visual recognition systems and are among the best in the industry. We focus on recognition for transportation applications, biometrics, anonymization, and generic objects recognition and tracking in image and video. We supply ready-made software products that our partners integrate into their own final systems. As a software producer, we can concentrate on the design and development of state-of-the-art algorithms with excellent real results, which are verified in practice with our partners. We provide them full integration support worldwide.

We are a company that regularly contributes to charity.... We also take a responsible approach to the use of artificial intelligence technologies. We have a code of ethics in place that prevents us from delivering our systems where they could be misused or where they could be exploited to violate privacy and human rights.

We value our professional employees. They are engineering creative hi-tech products, attracting young talents in the AI domain. See Join the band for more.
