Local Computer Vision. Open Integration. Built for Real-World Deployment.
DSDevices Edge AI Service is a downloadable computer vision application designed to make local vision processing simple to deploy on DSDevices hardware.
Using either a standard USB camera or an RTSP-enabled IP camera, supported DSDevices players can process visual data locally and make detection results available through a simple REST API.
The service is designed for CMS providers, integrators and developers looking to add practical computer vision capabilities to their platforms, applications and deployments.
The current release includes a multi-model inference pipeline combining Facial Demographic Classification (Gender and Age) with Real-Time Object Tracking across 80 COCO object classes.
- Local computer-vision processing
- Facial demographic classification for gender and age
- Real-time object detection and tracking
- Detection across 80 COCO object classes
- USB camera and RTSP-enabled IP camera support
- REST API for integration
- Downloadable application from the DSDevices website
- Support for DSDA1 and DSDX5
- CPU-based inference on current hardware
- Future NPU-accelerated support
- Custom AI models and integration services

Simple Local Architecture
DSDevices Edge AI Service supports the DSDA1 and DSDX5, using CPU-based inference on the current generation of devices.
USB Camera / IP Camera (RTSP) → DSDA1 / DSDX5 → DSDevices Edge AI Service → REST API → CMS / Third-Party App
Processing takes place locally on the device, reducing reliance on cloud-based AI services and giving partners and developers a straightforward way to integrate computer-vision data into their own applications and workflows.
A Working Multi-Model Computer Vision Application
DSDevices Edge AI Service provides a working multi-model computer-vision pipeline out of the box.
The current release combines:
- Facial Demographic Classification – Gender and Age
- Real-Time Object Tracking – detection and tracking across 80 COCO object classes
The application supports both USB cameras and RTSP-enabled IP cameras, providing flexibility in how camera feeds are connected.
Detection and classification results can be accessed through the REST API and used within CMS platforms, third-party applications, dashboards and custom integrations.
The included models provide a practical computer vision solution for a range of applications, with additional and custom models available through DSDevices for projects with different requirements.

Designed for Easy Integration
DSDevices Edge AI Service exposes a simple REST API designed for integration with CMS platforms and third-party applications.
Available endpoints include:
/api/v1/status– service and processing status/api/v1/detections– structured detection and classification results/api/v1/snapshot– current camera snapshot/api/v1/csv– detection data in CSV format
Applications can consume this output without needing to manage the underlying computer vision inference pipeline.
Available Directly from DSDevices
DSDevices Edge AI Service is available as a downloadable application directly from the DSDevices website.
Partners and developers can install the application on supported DSDevices hardware and use the REST API to integrate detection and classification data into their own platforms, applications and workflows.

The API provides a consistent integration layer between the Edge AI Service and external applications, allowing additional AI models and processing methods to be introduced without requiring existing integrations to be redesigned.
Security & Malware Audited
DSDevices Edge AI Service has undergone a dedicated Security & Malware Audit, providing additional assurance for partners evaluating or deploying the application.
The audit report for the released application is available to review directly from the DSDevices website.

Built for CMS Providers, Integrators and Developers
DSDevices Edge AI Service provides a straightforward way to introduce computer vision into digital signage and other connected applications.
CMS providers can consume detection and classification data within their platforms, while integrators and developers can use the REST API to build applications, workflows and tailored solutions around the service.
Potential applications include:
- Audience analytics
- Age and gender analysis
- People detection and tracking
- Object detection and tracking
- Occupancy and footfall monitoring
- Retail and display monitoring
- Event-based content triggering
- Operational monitoring
- Custom computer-vision applications
Need a Different Computer Vision Model?
The standard application includes Facial Demographic Classification and Real-Time Object Tracking across 80 COCO object classes, but different projects can require different types of computer vision.
DSDevices offers custom computer vision model development and integration services for partners and developers who require a different model, additional classifications or a solution tailored to a particular application.
Services can include:
- Custom model development and training
- Dataset preparation and annotation
- Model optimisation
- CPU and NPU deployment optimisation
- API and application integration
- Deployment engineering
- Ongoing model and technical support
Partners and developers can start with the standard application and move to a customised AI solution where required.

Existing Hardware. New Possibilities.
DSDevices Edge AI Service runs on the existing DSDA1 and DSDX5 platforms using CPU-based processing.
This allows partners and developers to deploy computer vision using existing DSDevices hardware with either a USB camera or an RTSP-enabled IP camera, without requiring a separate AI appliance.
Future DSDevices hardware will extend this capability with NPU acceleration, supporting higher-performance computer vision workloads and more demanding applications.
The Edge AI Service can therefore evolve alongside the DSDevices hardware platform while maintaining a consistent integration layer for CMS platforms and third-party applications.
Available Now
DSDevices Edge AI Service is now available to download for DSDA1 and DSDX5.
The current release includes Facial Demographic Classification, Real-Time Object Tracking across 80 COCO object classes, support for USB and RTSP-enabled IP cameras, and access through the DSDevices REST API.
