Overview

Sighthound Redactor is an application for the redaction of sensitive information in videos and images. It contains state of the art computer vision algorithms for face, vehicle, and speech detection along with object tracking to greatly reduce the amount of operator interaction required to complete redaction tasks.

System Requirements

Sighthound Redactor has been optimized to efficiently scale in a multicore environment. For best performance, particularly when working with long videos or those that contain many objects, an 8+ core system and at least 2GB of memory per core are recommended. We may recommend certain upgrades if there are concurrent users or for certain workflow considerations. Please reach out to one of our experts at support@sighthound.com for guidance.
