A traditional camera system records footage but never understands it. Computer vision analyzes the same feed with AI to make sense of it.
Most cameras are blind -- they record but never understand. This difference shows up across cost, setup time, target audience, and architecture.
Building a traditional camera setup typically requires $50K+ in specialized hardware and weeks of setup time. That cost and timeline make the solution accessible mostly to large corporations.
On the architecture side, complex on-premise systems come into play. The resulting approach is reactive: footage is only reviewed after an incident, not before.
Colt AI works with your existing cameras -- no camera replacement or specialized hardware investment required. Setup is complete in hours, not weeks.
Managed through a simple cloud dashboard, the system is affordable for every business size. The approach is proactive: incidents are prevented before they happen, not reviewed after.
Hardware cost -- Traditional: $50K+ specialized hardware. Colt AI: works with your existing cameras.
Setup time -- Traditional: weeks of setup time. Colt AI: live in hours, not weeks.
Target audience -- Traditional: only for large corporations. Colt AI: affordable for every business size.
System architecture -- Traditional: complex on-premise systems. Colt AI: simple cloud dashboard.
Approach -- Traditional: reactive, review after incidents. Colt AI: proactive, prevents incidents.
This comparison shows the real choice isn't just about technology -- it's about approach: record and review later, or prevent incidents before they happen. Colt AI builds the second approach on top of the cameras you already have.
For businesses that want to move to computer vision without a specialized hardware budget or weeks of waiting, Colt AI offers an affordable alternative running on a simple cloud dashboard.
