Neurala Brain Builder Tested (Train Your Own Analytics)

By Rob Kilpatrick, Published Nov 17, 2020, 08:53am EST

Do you want to train your analytics? For example, to detect a certain type of fish, tool, bird, buggy, etc.? While most analytics are pre-trained for people, vehicles, bikes, etc., Neurala says their Brain Builder app lets you train analytics for the specific objects you most care about.

But how well does this training work in real scenes?

IPVM Image

We tested the Brain Builder app on the new Security and Safety Things platform (tested here), examining:

  • Does it properly identify the objects it is taught?
  • Can it identify the object in a cluttered scene?
  • Can two objects be identified at the same time?
  • Can objects be identified at different angles?
  • How hard/easy is it to train?
  • How does it compare to Bosch AI Camera Trainer?
