PixelTHERE 1.0
Category: Misc.

After five years in development, Inc Factory’s flagship product, PixelTHERE, is nearing its release and I couldn’t be more excited. Even more exciting is that I’ve received the go-ahead to mention it here. This was no small feat as it involved government clearing and a stack of legal big enough to choke a horse.

Due to restrictions, I’ve not mentioned this product to anyone (friends and family included). While courting both federal and state law enforcement agencies, it was imperative to keep the technology under wraps. While I’m not a huge fan of secrecy, the CIA and the FBI are. Sorry to those who are feeling a bit betrayed by my previous silence.

FAQ:

Q) What is PixelTHERE?
A) PixelTHERE is state-of-the-art video interpolation software. Its purpose is to convert the low-grade video found in surveillance cameras (banks, gas stations, ATMs, etc.) to a state where facial recognition software can accurately identify both people and objects.

Q)
Is PixelTHERE accurate?
A) Yes, it’s incredibly accurate. In real-world situations PixelTHERE’s preprocessing has lead to a 99% positive identification rate. More importantly, PT’s false positive rate is .001%. This outdoes industry standards by nearly 17% on the PI rate and 6% on the FI rate.

Q) Have I seen your product before?
A) Yes, we’ve been working with Hollywood writers on product placement for a couple of years now. Most notably, the hit series ‘CSI’ and ‘CSI: Miami’ have incorporated our technology previews into a number of episodes. The feature that is most often shown is OnePixelTHERE.

Q) How does PixelTHERE differ from its competition?
A) As seen on CSI. PixelTHERE utilizes OnePixelTHERE technology. Unlike the competition PixelTHERE requires only one pixel to interpolate any object. For instance, by processing the following image with PT

you get:

Q) What is the future for PT?
A) Our developers are hard at work on ZeroPixelTHERE technology. With ZPT, images of the back of someone’s head will result in a shot of their face. This is often accomplished by processing a reflection from someone’s eyes/jewelry/etc.

Q) What has been the biggest surprise that’s come from PixelTHERE?
A) First, Elvis *is* still alive and has been spotted 47 times in the last 6 months. Second, the Loch Ness monster is actually Triumph: The Insult Comic.

Edit: I'll work for free if I get to meet the Monster. I don't want to have anything to do with spotting Elvis, though. He's just creepy.
