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.
