After announcing the acquisition of AI specialist Uncanny Vision, IFSEC Global got the chance to sit down with Eagle Eye Networks CEO, Dean Drako, to explore the reasons behind the move and what it means for its customers.

Despite a challenging couple of years, cloud-based video surveillance system specialist Eagle Eye Networks has grown by almost 100%, explains its CEO Dean Drako as we catch up over a video call. We chat shortly after the company announced its major acquisition of AI provider Uncanny Vision – a move that adds new software capabilities and a 60-strong research and development team based in Bangalore, India to Eagle Eye’s portfolio.

Uncanny Vision’s team are described as experts in artificial intelligence (AI). Crucially for Eagle Eye, its expertise lie in applying AI to video surveillance applications, which Dean notes was the key driver behind the move.
