By combining computer vision and artificial intelligence Sighthound is redefining real time video analysis for homes and businesses.BOULDER - Boulder AI Inc., an artificial intelligence-enable smart camera developer, will be acquired by Sighthound Inc., the Florida-based computer vision technology and video analytics company revealed this week. Sighthound makes sense of movement through our world. The latest release of Sighthound Video also supports the discovery and configuration of IP cameras using ONVIF, making the configuration of cameras which are not pre-populated in Sighthound Video even easier. The partnership with IFTTT enables Sighthound's computer vision intelligence to interact with the other apps in users' lives.

Call me when a person climbs over my fence. When a person enters a room, turn my Nest thermostat up (but not if it's my dog). Log every person who enters my house in Google Calendar. When a person is in my yard when I'm on vacation, alert my neighborhood watch Facebook Group. If Sighthound Video detects a person in my home while I'm out, turn Philips hue bulbs red.
