Dallas-based Worlds' technology can continuously process massive amounts of video data across different environments, creating an “index of everything” for organizations in real time. The physical AI startup has received a newly granted patent (USPTO #12400442) for a system that automatically identifies and labels objects in video by building a searchable index. The technology—invented by Worlds CTO and co-founder Ross Bates and Sr. Director of Machine Learning Paul Aarseth—can analyze footage from different locations, compare what it sees, and match similar items to streamline monitoring and data labeling.
