How Long Does an Image Processing Project Take?

Short answer: In a typical project using existing cameras, discovery takes 1–2 days, installation 3–5 days, and site-specific calibration and pilot 2–4 weeks. Therefore, the first measured results are obtained within about a month; deployment is completed in a few weeks depending on the number of cameras.

Step-by-Step Process

  • Discovery (1–2 days): cameras, priority risks, target KPIs
  • Installation (3–5 days): edge server, stream connection, zones and rules
  • Calibration and pilot (2–4 weeks): model adjustment with site data, accuracy measurement
  • Reporting and deployment: measured results, ROI summary, expansion to other cameras

Situations That Extend Duration

The need for new cameras or lighting, unready network infrastructure, and project-specific new model training (e.g. custom product defect) extend the duration. Ready-made modules (PPE, forklift, counting) are the fastest to deploy.

Frequently asked questions

How does the timeline change for large facilities with 200+ cameras?

The pilot phase remains the same; deployment is carried out in stages. For example, in a mining facility with 200+ cameras, over 20 modules have been deployed gradually.
