IKM® Neural Networks Enhanced with NVIDIA NIM: A New Era of Smart City Solutions
K2K® is proud to announce that IKM® Neural Networks Architectures now include NVIDIA NIM microservices, part of the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform, and vision language models (VLMs) to power smart city applications with advanced video generative AI. This integration is set to elevate the neural networks' capabilities in traffic and waste management, public safety, and environmental analysis, enabling cities to efficiently manage resources and improve urban life.
1. IKM® Global VQA
IKM® Neural Networks, powered by NVIDIA NIM microservices, supercharge real-time analytics across multi-camera streams with high precision. City operations teams can obtain instant answers to natural language queries, as well as engage in multi-turn conversation spanning multiple data sources and correlate images to further refine query results, allowing for immediate and highly specific insights into issues such as roadworks, crowd density, and environmental hazards. This breakthrough capability enables faster, more adaptive decision-making in critical urban situations, which can transform the way cities respond to challenges.
2. OVCR® Traffic Management
The OVCR® Traffic Management system provides real-time vehicle tracking, congestion analysis, and speed analysis. This data allows city planners to optimize traffic flow, enhance road safety, and respond quickly to incidents. The neural networks’ capabilities also give traffic managers a complete, real-time overview of traffic patterns and road conditions, making cities safer and more efficient.
3. IKM® Waste Management
With NVIDIA NIM microservices, IKM® Neural Networks analyze video streams of waste bin fill levels and surrounding cleanliness. Real-time insights into illegal dumping or full waste bins allow cities to better plan waste collection and maintain cleaner environments, reducing operational costs and contributing to urban aesthetics.
K2K® is helping set a new benchmark for smart cities, harnessing the power of neural networks, VLMs, and NVIDIA AI Blueprints to create cleaner, safer urban environments.
K2K® is excited to drive the future of smart cities and deliver innovations that improve urban life for all residents using NVIDIA AI.

Transforming Smart Cities with IKM® Technology powered by NVIDIA AI Blueprints and Metropolis
K2K® is empowering cities with advanced video search, summarization and video generative AI capabilities, powered by NVIDIA’s AI software stack and NVIDIA AIBlueprints, which are designed to tackle complex urban challenges by delivering real-time insights that help manage resources, streamline operations, and ensure public safety in urban environments.
NVIDIA AI Blueprints are reference workflows for generative AI use cases, built with NVIDIA NIM microservices as part of the NVIDIA AI Enterprise software platform. The new AI Blueprint for video search and summarization helps developers like K2K leverage NVIDIA Metropolis to create a diversity of AI agents that can perform visual understanding of activities within video and to build smart city services.
By integrating NVIDIA AI Blueprints, part of NVIDIA AI Enterprise, IKM® Technology brings real-time, intelligent insights to smart cities. Through state-of-the-art neural networks and video genAI, the IKM® Neural Networks Architectures can support various urban applications, from optimizing traffic flow to enhancing waste management and analyzing environmental conditions. These enhancements enable smart cities to make informed, knowledge-driven decisions for managing urban resources efficiently and effectively.
Users can specify prompts and events that the system will analyze and summarize, giving city operators immediate access to information on incidents like traffic blockages, large gatherings, and environmental concerns.
This not only allows for a quicker response to urban developments but also significantly boosts city management and situational awareness.
This collaboration with NVIDIA brings exceptional scalability and adaptability to IKM® Neural Networks, enabling cities to harness the power of real-time insights and alerts for a smarter and safer urban experience. K2K® is helping set new standards in smart city technology, making cities not only more connected but also more resilient and sustainable.

Truth Machine
With the graphical processing units (GPUs), numerous algorithms have been adapted for parallel computing, achieving execution times that are approaching real time. Specifically for emotion recognition from facial images, these computational enhancements have ushered in the second class of approaches, neural networks — and in particular, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs).
