We are google analytics for the real-world. We use a combination of machine vision (OpenCV + our own algorithms) on standard video cameras, and other inputs like RFID/WiFi data to build a complete picture of what's happening inside a physical retail store. No cookies or IPs to play with in the real-world, so a much harder (and hence much more interesting!) problem.
Each month we track nearly 2M people worldwide across our several retail customers (a few are listed on our website). We are fundamentally changing the way retail stores are designed and operated.
We use C/C++, Java, Python and Flex. Our product runs on Linux. We like super-smart generalist hackers who are into machine vision, data visualization, AI or data mining/big data analytics. Interested? Drop us a note at jobs@bvinetworks.com.
Wow, this sounds really intriguing. I took a computational imaging class this semester and am enthralled by it; I find a lot of my personal projects end up in this territory. What sort of hours do you expect an intern to put in?
Well, we have no specific projects for which we're waiting for interns. We'd like to get some smart interns for a while and see what you can do in whatever interests you, and see if it makes sense (from both sides) to maybe turn this into a full-time thing. Send us a note at jobs@bvinetworks.com and let's chat.
I worked from 2002 to 2005 in a company in Colombia that did the same. We had only about 20 customers, and we also did mistery shopping for car salesmen.
Not looking for a job, just found the post interesting.
