What are you trying to achieve with AlpVision?

At AlpVision, our goal is simple: to determine whether a product is genuine or fake.

The technology can be applied across many different industries and products, from wh**ky and luxury shoes to electronics.

The underlying challenge is always the same: giving brands and, when appropriate, consumers a reliable way to verify product authenticity.

Can iPhones and Android phones check whether a product is genuine?


Yes.

Nevertheless, a specific image quality is required, so Android poses the following challenges:

• More device models
• More complex
• More maintenance

Using Apple devices is easier because they

• have only few models,
• generally have a better camera system, and
• require less maintenance.

However, this limitation is eliminated if, instead of running an app on a phone, a video stream is sent directly to a server.
