Hype Lab BUILDING AN AI TOOL USING AZURE CUSTOM VISION AND OCR

Last year marked another milestone in my professional journey when I completed the Microsoft Azure AI Engineer Associate certification. Excited to apply what I had learned, I decided to dive into the world of Azure Custom Vision AI tools and APIs. My goal was to create something practical and impactful, and that’s when I came up with the idea of developing a tool integrated with our Car Park Digital Signage Module. This tool would be able to identify cars and their number plates—a project that turned out to be both challenging and rewarding.

In his continuous pursuit of innovation, Marco, the co-founder of Advertise Me, reached a significant milestone in his professional journey when he achieved the Microsoft Azure AI Engineer Associate certification. Eager to apply his newly acquired expertise, Marco set out to explore Azure Custom Vision AI tools and APIs to develop a practical and impactful solution.

With a strong background in digital signage and AI-driven solutions, Marco saw an opportunity to enhance Advertise Me’s Car Park Digital Signage Module. His vision was to create a smart tool capable of detecting vehicles, recognizing number plates, and seamlessly integrating this data with digital signage displays. This technology would enable automated parking management, enhanced security, and targeted messaging for drivers entering and exiting car parks.

The project presented both technical and logistical challenges, from training AI models for real-world conditions to ensuring seamless API integration. However, Marco’s dedication to leveraging AI for business transformation led to a successful implementation. His work not only showcased the power of Azure AI in digital signage but also reinforced Advertise Me’s commitment to pioneering smart solutions for businesses.
