About Pixel Velocity
Pixel Velocity, founded in 2001, is strategically located in Ann Arbor, Michigan, a center for image processing research and the development of advanced sensor technology. With more than 30 years of experience working with the most demanding imaging applications in the defense industry, our management team brings a unique perspective to cutting edge technology and product development, as well as customer relationships and interactions. We believe that the most important developments can be made only by working closely with our customers to determine and learn from their unique challenges. We place high importance on not only working with proven contractors and installers but understanding the needs of the end-user.
Our technology grew out of work conducted at the Environmental Research Institute of Michigan (ERIM), successor to the University of Michigan’s Willow Run Labs (1947) where synthetic aperture radar and the airborne 3-D laser scanner were invented. ERIM’s advanced image processing hardware and software evolved from those legacies, resulting in solutions for the Department of Defense’s complex imaging problems, including UAV navigation, automatic target recognition, reconnaissance, and surveillance.
Pixel Velocity has applied its experience and talents to the development of an open architecture video surveillance product that easily layers-in advanced imaging hardware and software developments. With engineering expertise in the areas of video automation, sensor fusion and system integration, Pixel Velocity is continuously striving to deliver the world’s most innovative and effective security solutions.
