HorizonIQ Expands IREX Ethical AI Capabilities for Enhanced Weapon Detection in Texas and California

HorizonIQ has bolstered the IREX Ethical AI bare metal instance in Texas by integrating new GPU nodes. These nodes now form part of a private cloud, delivering real-time weapon detection video analytics services across campuses, malls, and airports in Texas and California.

The inclusion of these advanced GPU nodes allows IREX to deploy larger neural networks, significantly improving the accuracy of weapon detection at extended distances from cameras. Additionally, IREX will continue to support CPU video analytics on Intel and AMD processors, catering to international clients who may lack the technical infrastructure to integrate GPUs into their local data centers.

"We are extremely pleased with our partnership with HorizonIQ. They have provided IREX with highly optimized bespoke bare metal configurations at a very competitive price point. We appreciate the agility with which HorizonIQ can scale up the infrastructure," said Nik Ptitsyn, CTO of IREX.

"We are delighted to support IREX's ambitious plans for expansion in the US and Latin America by offering one of the best SLAs for mission-critical applications," stated John Scanlon, CEO of HorizonIQ.
