VIBR – Vision Intelligence Block for Robotics

VIBR is a standalone, real-time vision AI block that runs entirely offline. It performs object detection, face recognition, and behavior/event analysis using edge-friendly models (YOLOv8, InsightFace). Logs are structured and queryable.

What It Does

  • Detects people, objects, and faces in real time
  • Classifies behaviors (e.g., aggression)
  • Logs structured events for later queries
  • Triggers downstream control events (via Qognix)

Example Use Cases

  • Surveillance bots that watch for specific individuals
  • Warehouse bots that detect pallet placement
  • Delivery robots that identify entry/exit points
