Milestone Systems and NVIDIA Cosmos Curator have announced a new platform that enables access to data and training for AI Models.

AI developers across the globe share the challenge of finding sufficient high-quality, accurate and reliable video data to train visual AI models.

Milestone Systems has announced Project Hafnia to build services and democratise AI-model training with compliant video data leveraging NVIDIA Cosmos Curator and AI model, fine-tuning microservices.

NVIDIA platform

Leveraging the NVIDIA platform, Milestone Systems’ Project Hafnia is aiming to be a leading service for data generators, to share and utilise its data and for developers, to access traceable and regulatory-compliant annotated video data.

Milestone states that its goal is to put the latest advances in Vision Language Models (VLM) and supporting data curation capabilities in the hands of as many developers as possible.

One of the first service offerings is a VLM, fine-tuned using NVIDIA fine-tuning microservices on a large volume of compliant transportation data, curated using NVIDIA Cosmos Curator.

The VLM’s accuracy and performance optimisations are tuned for running on NVIDIA GPUs and in NVIDIA’s video search and summarisation (VSS) AI blueprint.

“Accelerate this next wave”

Deepu Talla, Vice President and General Manager (Embedded and Edge Computing), NVIDIA commented: “By leveraging the NVIDIA platform, Milestone Systems is helping accelerate this next wave of powerful visual services.

“The next phase in development and adoption of visually perceptive Agentic AI services will be unlocked by recipes like NVIDIA VSS blueprint combined with widely available and accessible fine-tuned VLM models,” he added.

Complaint data

Access to data Milestone Systems, known for its data-driven video technology and analytics, is aggregating compliant data through its global network of partners and customers in video data management.

The company notes that these organisations seek to leverage their own data to develop smarter analytics and will be able to benefit from the platform, which can be utilised to train AI models on sufficient, compliant data.

“Smartest, fastest and responsible”

Thomas Jensen, CEO, Milestone Systems stated: “Artificial intelligence is our generation’s biggest game-changer.

“A major challenge for the ongoing development is having access to enough high-quality data for training AI models.”

Jensen concluded: “The Project Hafnia platform will collect and curate data with the aspiration to be the world’s smartest, fastest and responsible platform for video data and training of AI models.”

Services

Project Hafnia is also set to remove major friction points and provide smooth and seamless access to data.

Driven by NVIDIA Cosmos Curator data curation, the company notes that the service will speed up developing AI and analytics, up to 30 times faster than current standards.

Milestone Systems will offer two services:

• A cutting-edge service for AI model training with high-quality video data through training as a service, where software developers can access quality data to train AI-models
• A new Visual Language Model as a service for smart city transportation and Intelligent Traffic Service use-cases that will be industry leading in performance
