October 2019 -Canon today announced a partnership with Agent
Video Intelligence (Agent Vi�), the leading global provider of video
analytics solutions, to launch the first AI-powered cloud-based video analytics
service in Singapore. The partnership with Agent Vi will enhance Canon's suite
of network visual solutions, offering businesses seamless connectivity with
maximum productivity and reduced costs.

Customers in Singapore are the first and only in Asia to
experience innoVi, Agent Vi's cutting-edge AI-powered video analytics Software
as a Service (SaaS) on their existing surveillance cameras. The service is
offered on a monthly subscription basis, saving customers from investing in any
upfront capital costs or having to purchase dedicated equipment.

innoVi is a centrally-managed video analytics solution
powered by cutting-edge Deep Learning technology that enables unparalleled
detection accuracy. Its algorithms actively and continuously learn how to
categorize objects with precision, allowing innoVi to distinguish between
people, vehicles and static objects. innoVi is able to transform any ONVIF /
RTSP fixed IP camera into an intelligent video device, uncovering otherwise
hidden incidents, insights and information.

Being fully automated, the solution minimises the need for
24-hour monitoring and eliminates the chance of human error. The product is
designed to meet the needs of companies requiring video analytics with a simple
and easy-to-maintain setup such as hotels, condominium security and healthcare
facilities. Subscription to the service starts at only $137 per month with no upfront
costs.

"We are
always looking for ways to help our customers improve and streamline their
processes, and are delighted that this partnership with Agent Vi enables us to
be the first to introduce cloud-based video analytics to Singapore," said Edwin
