Computer vision, built for you
If you have a problem that vision and AI could solve, our Melbourne team will build a solution around it, designed, developed and owned in Australia.
Off-the-shelf AI rarely fits a specific operational problem.
Most organisations have a challenge that generic software cannot quite address: a process to automate, an insight buried in hours of video, or an opportunity that needs a tailored model. Importing a fixed product from overseas usually means slow support, poor fit and no real ownership. Ottica takes the opposite approach, partnering with you to design a bespoke solution and backing it with a local team that understands the context you operate in.
Generic products force compromises
Fixed feature sets rarely match a real-world workflow, leaving teams to work around the software rather than the other way around.
Overseas support is slow and remote
When a solution is resold from abroad, response times lag and the people supporting it have little understanding of your local context.
Untapped video data goes to waste
Hours of camera footage hold operational insight that organisations rarely have the tools to extract or act on.
Capabilities we bring to a project
We combine a broad toolkit with local engineering to build exactly what your challenge requires.
Facial recognition
Our core, privacy-first recognition platform can be tailored and embedded into bespoke workflows that need identity verification on-premise.
Object and people detection
We build models that detect, classify and track objects and people in live or recorded video to automate monitoring and measurement.
Large language models
We integrate LLMs with vision to interpret, summarise and reason over what the cameras see, turning raw footage into structured understanding.
Data analytics
We turn detections into anonymised, actionable analytics so the insight from a bespoke system feeds directly into your decisions.
Local development and support
Design, development and ongoing support all happen in Australia, with quick response times and an understanding of region-specific requirements.
Versatility and innovation
From automating manual tasks to surfacing new AI-driven opportunities, we adapt the technology to the problem rather than the reverse.
What you can expect
- A solution designed around your specific challenge
- Local engineering ownership rather than a resold product
- Insight extracted from footage you already capture
- Privacy-first, on-premise processing where it matters
- Quick, region-aware support from the team that built it
- A path to automate tasks and unlock new opportunities
Questions, answered.
If a task involves understanding images or video, it is usually a candidate. Common examples include detecting and counting objects or people, verifying identity or age, automating visual inspections, and extracting operational insight from camera footage. If you have a challenge that needs computer vision, we will give it a go.
Both. We have established platforms for facial recognition, age detection and people counting, and we also take on bespoke project work, designing and developing tailored solutions around a specific operational problem.
Entirely in Australia. Our Melbourne team handles design, development and ongoing support, so you work directly with the engineers behind your solution and receive quick, region-aware assistance.
Yes. Consistent with our privacy-first approach, we can build solutions that process video and biometric data locally, so sensitive information stays inside your environment rather than going to the cloud.
We supply the smart cameras and on-site compute a project needs, specified for the task during scoping. Because we build and own the stack, the cameras, hardware and models are designed to work together rather than retrofitted around whatever is on hand.
