Modern surveillance demands more than visibility—it demands intelligence. Whether in retail, public infrastructure, or industrial sites, understanding how people move through space can unlock safer environments, smarter planning, and stronger decision-making.

That’s where Samurai Suite steps in. it unifies AI-powered analytics (Shogun) and system health monitoring (Ronin) into one streamlined platform. And with its latest feature, Re-ID – Shogun now delivers an even deeper level of insight, without compromising on privacy.

What Is Re-ID?

Re-Identification (Re-ID) is Shogun’s breakthrough capability that allows organizations to anonymously track individuals across multiple non-overlapping cameras without using facial recognition or biometric data.

By analysing visual cues like shape, size, and clothing colour, Re-ID assigns a unique, anonymous ID to each person, enabling:

• Journey tracking from entry to exit
• Dwell time analysis within specific zones
• Detection of return visits or unusual patterns
• Filtering of staff activity for cleaner customer data
• Role-based alerts for restricted areas or extended stays

All of this happens in real time without identifying or storing personal information.

“Our focus is on leveraging Re-ID to weave fragmented visual data into cohesive narratives of movement and behaviour. This generates dynamic, interconnected data that profoundly impacts understanding, optimization, and data-driven decision-making ultimately revealing to customers the untapped edge they already possess,” stated Ryan Hore, Head of Research and Development at Art of Logic

Privacy-First by Design
Unlike traditional surveillance tech, Shogun’s Re-ID is built for privacy from the ground up. It is:

• Non-biometric: no facial recognition, no personal data
• Fully anonymous: users are identified only by movement patterns and appearance
• Regulation – ready – safe for use in retail, public spaces, councils, and secure facilities

It enables organizations to gain operational insight while respecting public trust and regulatory compliance.

Real-World Example: Smarter Retail, Safer Spaces
In a retail setting, Re-ID transforms how teams understand and optimize customer behaviour. A shopper’s anonymous journey can be mapped from entrance to checkout showing how long they spend at displays, where they dwell, and what paths they take.

At the same time, Shogun automatically identifies and filters staff movement, giving teams clean data that helps:

• Improve store layouts and product placement
• Align staffing with traffic flow
• Detect suspicious behaviour near exits or high-value zones

This dual focus customer insight and operational safety makes Re-ID a valuable tool for both marketing and security teams.

Built for Cities, Industry, and Security
Re-ID’s flexibility makes it ideal for a wide range of applications:

• Smart Cities: Monitor foot traffic in libraries, transit stations, and parks; detect overcrowding or loitering
• Government & Infrastructure: Track access in secure areas; support compliance and incident investigation
• Industrial & Mining Sites: Monitor contractor time-on-site; detect entry into hazardous zones; reduce downtime
