Leopard Imaging and Sony Semiconductor Solutions Collaborate to Showcase GS500 AI-Based Imaging Solution for Smart City at CES 2025

The GS500 AI Vision System features the state-of-the-art GS500-MIPI camera, powered by Sony's world-first intelligent vision sensor IMX500 and its advanced edge AI sensing platform, AITRIOS™. This combination of Leopard Imaging advanced camera design and manufacturing together with Sony IMX500 sensor delivers robust AI processing capabilities, enabling high-performance edge AI computing directly on the device.

Equipped with a 12-megapixel sensor, the GS500 excels at scene interpretation and executing machine learning tasks within the camera itself. Its edge AI-powered design from IMX500 furthers high-speed performance, enhanced security, and a scalable system architecture adaptable to various applications.

Together, the system supports seamless installation and maintenance with flexible connectivity options, including PoE, WiFi, and LTE-CatM1, while enabling OTA updates for AI models and applications.

A standout feature is its data minimization approach. Sony's IMX500 sensor processes visual data into metadata at the point of capture. This supports data anonymization and robust protection, making the GS500 an ideal solution for privacy-conscious deployments in smart city infrastructure, robotic vision, and industrial automation.

Leopard Imaging's expertise in AI-driven imaging was recognized when it secured first place in the 2023 Pedestrian Safety Challenge Hackathon, co-sponsored by the tinyML Foundation, the City of San José, and Sony Semiconductor Solutions. This achievement played a pivotal role in advancing the development of the GS500 AI Vision System.

Visit Leopard Imaging at CES 2025, Booth No. 9439, Las Vegas Convention Center, North Hall, January 7th-10th, to explore GS500 demo, and Leopard Imaging latest imaging innovations. To arrange a meeting at the event, please contact [email protected].
