Perspectives on AI-video analytics, operational intelligence, and the industries we serve.

Deepening NVIDIA Integration Across Cloud & Edge Infrastructure
The Unleash live platform now runs on NVIDIA L4 Tensor Core GPUs and Vision Language Models, extending production-grade computer vision performance across the world's most asset-intensive operations. Enterprise infrastructure operators have a well-documented problem. Visual data is generated continuously across substations, pipelines, mine sites, and transport networks, but the operational intelligence buried in that footage rarely reaches decision-makers in time to matter.

From Image Capture to Operational Control
Why Enterprise Visual Intelligence Is Becoming Essential for Modern Utilities Reliability in energy distribution is non negotiable. Outages impact communities, disrupt operations, and erode confidence in critical infrastructure. Asset failures increase regulatory scrutiny and remediation costs. Late detection of defects or risks compounds operational exposure.

Embedding AI to Optimize Operations Across Enterprises
Every organization is trying to make sense of the fast moving AI landscape. Asset and infrastructure heavy sectors such as energy (distribution, renewables, oil & gas), resources & mining, and government need to modernize operations while keeping people safe, assets productive, and systems stable. The real challenge is selecting technology that works across every site, team, and workflow and building an AI ecosystem that can scale.

Expanding US Growth through NSW Going Global Program
Unleash live has been invited to participate in the NSW Going Global Export Program 2026 for AI Technology in the United States.

Centralized Visual Intelligence for Emergency Response
When fires escalate, floods spread, or storms make landfall, the challenge facing emergency services is rarely a lack of data. The real issue is fragmentation. Information arrives fast, but rarely in a form that supports decisive action. Video feeds arrive from multiple teams, radio traffic intensifies, and situational awareness becomes harder to maintain just as decisions need to accelerate. In these moments, clarity is not a nice-to-have. It is the foundation of effective response.

Advances in our Powerline Asset Monitoring AI-App
Unleash live’s latest evolution of our powerline assessment AI-App delivers faster, more precise analysis across the full spectrum of network assets. While widely adopted for distribution pole inspections, the enhanced AI models and workflows are designed to support broader utility infrastructure, from poles and crossarms to towers, conductors, vegetation, transformers and substations.

Tackling Mining’s Biggest Challenges
With the recent 6th Annual Digitalisation & AI in Mining Australia Conference (DAIMA) 2025, and the industry spotlight on the five critical issues shaping the future of mining, we thought we would take the opportunity to share how Unleash live is supporting mining companies to overcome these critical issues:

Automated Inspections. Any Asset, Any Angle!
From Vision to Insight: How 3D Viewing Changes Asset Inspections Asset owners today are responsible for an increasingly diverse portfolio including solar farms, bridges, substations, pipelines, and transmission networks, each with its own inspection requirements, regulatory standards, and environmental constraints. Yet despite advances in sensors and automation, inspection methods remain largely fragmented and asset specific.

A Win for Responsible AI and Why It Matters More Than Ever

The Smartest Way for Utilities to Spend US$1 Trillion
According an EEI Research Industry Capex report, utilities are poised to spend $1.1 trillion over the next five years modernizing and expanding the US electric grid, while capital expenditures this year alone are expected to hit a record $208 billion. With that level of investment, every dollar must deliver maximum impact.

Automated Utility Inspections with UAS/RPAS/UAV's & Computer Vision
Webinar Overview Looking for faster, safer, and scalable inspections? Learn how leading utilities are modernising distribution inspections with Drone Automation and Computer Vision. This webinar walks through the software and workflows in use today, showing how utilities are already reducing manual effort, lowering costs, minimising downtime, and making faster, smarter decisions.

Unlock the Value of Drone AI Inspections for Utility Asset Monitoring
The Australian Energy Regulator’s State of the Energy Market 2025 report highlights urgent challenges for utilities. Aging infrastructure, inspection backlogs, and growing exposure to extreme weather events like bushfires, storms, and flooding are placing networks and crews under pressure. Regulators now demand more frequent reporting and faster response to hazards, making compliance and operational efficiency critical.
