RealNetworks and Digifort Partner to Offer SAFR™ Facial Recognition Worldwide
March 14 2019 - 6:00AM
RealNetworks, Inc. (NASDAQ: RNWK), a global leader in digital media
software and services announced today that it has partnered with
Digifort, a leader in video management systems headquartered in
Brazil with offices around the world, to make the SAFR facial
recognition platform available to Digifort’s 28,000 customers in
more than 130 countries worldwide.
Security teams are burdened with hours of monitoring, which
requires extended periods of extreme concentration and attention to
detail in order to identify unauthorized or unknown activity. With
SAFR, security staff can be alerted in real time when persons of
interest are recognized on any live camera feed, whether or not
they’re in view of security personnel. This includes registered
persons, threats, concerns, and VIPs in authorized or unauthorized
areas.
“We are delighted to partner with Digifort to accelerate the
availability of SAFR for security professionals working to keep
cities, airports, train stations, schools, shops, and workspaces
safe in Brazil, Latin America, and around the world,” said Jose
Larrucea, Vice-President of RealNetworks Latin America. “Our deep
market innovation is founded on SAFR’s unmatched performance for
facial recognition in the real world, ease of deployment, and
flexible business model.”
“It is a privilege to join forces with a partner like
RealNetworks, which not only brings global capacity and technology
experience but also provides local representation and support in
Brazil and in other regional markets where Digifort operates,”
commented Carlos Bonilha, Digifort’s CEO.
SAFR is an AI-powered facial recognition platform architected to
economically scale with high performance and rapid processing to
detect and match millions of faces in real time. It offers
vigilant, 24-hour-per-day service, automating alerts and
notifications as an event occurs, providing immediate insight and
situational awareness. The SAFR platform supports flexible
deployment – including on-premise, cloud, or hybrid – and can also
characterize gender, age, and sentiment. This enables security
professionals to not only identify people on watchlists, but also
build greater awareness of demographics and traffic patterns in
facilities across retail, health, telecom, education, government,
and other commercial markets.
Digifort and RealNetworks are committed to making SAFR available
to current and new customers around the world in 2019.
Current Digifort customers can contact their Digifort sales
representative or authorized reseller to learn how to purchase and
install SAFR. For more information on SAFR and Digifort please
