Synthetic, or simulated, sensor imagery data plays a pivotal role in training artificial intelligence models for machine and computer-based vision applications by augmenting or, in some cases substituting for, real dataset collection. By generating data that mimics real-world sensors and scenarios, synthetic data enhances model performance and generalization, while also having the ability to address privacy concerns associated with using real data. The partnership brings the potential for customers to benefit from access Tafi’s creator marketplace and ecosystem to help create synthetic data, providing access to a diverse range of high-fidelity human characters, each powered by Tafi’s unique tools for modeling human anatomy and posing.
“The integration of Tafi’s proprietary Genesis character models into the Rendered.ai platform marks a significant milestone for computer vision AI training,” stated Nathan Kundtz, Ph.D., CEO at Rendered.ai. “These highly configurable 3D models open up exciting possibilities for applications in computer vision, offering developers and researchers access to a rich dataset that accurately represents the complexities of the human form available within a collaborative experience accessible to large data science teams.”
Rendered.ai’s synthetic data platform, equipped with Tafi’s human character models, will be a valuable asset for a range of industries. Training AI models for medical image analysis and patient monitoring can benefit from realistic human anatomical data. Enhancing visual recognition algorithms for shopping behavior, factory safety, and customer behavior can benefit from simulating a wide range of human behavior. Improving computer vision systems for pedestrian detection, driver monitoring, and human-centric safety features in autonomous vehicles uses 3D characters for simulating unsafe conditions. Many more use cases exist for application of 3D character models to computer vision data needs.
