Quanergy – MQ-8-QortexDTC

The MQ-8/QORTEX DTC Solution is an integrated hardware and software platform that combines Quanergy’s MQ-8 LiDAR sensor with QORTEX DTC (Detect, Track, Classify) perception software for reliable, real-time people and vehicle tracking in security, smart city, and smart space applications.

This product is available from Milexia Italia

The solution uses 3D perception algorithms to scan the sensor’s field of view, analyze point cloud data, and provide anonymized information on detected objects. This enables automated flow management that is both cost-effective and easy to operate. The solution allows users to:

Identify and classify objects as people or vehicles, as well as types of subvehicles
Track individual people and vehicles and provide real-time, centimeter level accurate location information
Configure rules to trigger point cloud recordings, network actions and/or automatically control PTZ camera movement to follow selected individual

100x Broader Coverage Area Than Cameras at a Lower TCO (Total Cost of Ownership)
The solution delivers industry-leading range, capable of tracking and classifying people and vehicles at a range of up to 140 meters. Due to
its asymmetrical beam design, a single MQ-8 solution can cover up to 15,000 m2 area—up to 100x broader coverage compared to equivalent camera-based systems. This enables complete coverage of large areas like malls, airports, and parking lots. At a much lower TCO, the MQ-8 provides broader coverage than cameras, utilizing much fewer sensors to help reduce expensive installation, configuration, and cabling.

High Accuracy and Low Rate of False Alarms
QORTEX DTC can provide greater than 95% detection accuracy and 24/7 reliability in all lighting and atmospheric conditions. The
accuracy and reliability of QORTEX DTC significantly reduces false alarms, ultimately saving time and costs. Even camera-based security systems can greatly benefit from adding QORTEX DTC for enhanced sensing and perception, lowering the false alarm rate as much as 95%.

Automated ID Handover™
Automated ID Handover (AIDH) allows continuous tracking of an object throughout the entire system by unifying the output from QORTEX DTC™ servers and preserving an object’s ID across multiple servers. This capability is extremely powerful in terms of reliably tracking objects within large-scale multi-server, multi-sensor installations such as perimeter intrusion detection at large critical infrastructure facilities, curb to gate applications at airports, business intelligence analytics in retail, and more.

Zero Personal Identifiable Information (PII) Risk
The patent pending QORTEX perception software does not rely on facial recognition technology and does not require capturing or storing any personally identifiable information. As a result, the solution protects individual privacy and poses zero PII risk.

Easy to Manage, Automated Solution
The solution is easy to install, configure, and manage. For example, the solution features autocalibration of LiDAR and PTZ cameras
to simplify installation and configuration. A rules engine automates point cloud recordings, PTZ control, and network actions based on real-time events. In addition, QORTEX DTC is integrated with leading VMS platforms to provide a unified security solution and PTZ camera integration.

Product Acceleration with Fast Track Software Bundle
With the QORTEX DTC Fast Track Software bundle, customers can reduce their product time-to-market by focusing their efforts
on value-added application-level development. The Fast Track Software bundle includes source code, tools, and business logic to help customers and partners go to market faster. The bundle also includes features like Google Map visualization, sensor coverage, geo-location, port monitoring, and alerts.
