Mectho

MecTho is a startup, part of Mechanica Group, that designs and takes to the market highly innovative products and services based on 2D/3D artificial vision and AI. Its core markets are logistics, airports and access control. MecTho's products are both measurement and advanced classification systems, able to intepret an environment, to assess the possible anomalies and to consenquently make the suitable decisions. As regards logistics, Mectho's main product is the Double Detection System (DDS), an AI-based classifier able to inspect on a conveyor belt whether the item has been correctly singularised. The DDS has an additional function, called Morphological Detection System (MDS), able to determine what kind of item is currently analysed (parcel, flyer, envelope, out-of-gauge.). For the airport market MecTho has developed the Life Detection Unit (LDU), a measurement and classification system able to spot children and adults on moving conveyor belts or within critical areas often at the transitition between the landside and the airside areas. This system allows airports also to solve the well-known problem due to children playing on conveyor belts that are inadvertently carried to luggage security checks, so putting them in a condition of high danger. As regards access control, MecTho has designed and taken to the market the AntiPiggybacking System (APB2). This can be installed on revolving doors, booths and fast gates and is able to detect almost every attempt to fraudulently break the secuity check (piggybacking and tailgating). Mectho's founders have more than 15-year experience both in academia and in industry, its technology is protected by five patents. MecTho is a member of the NVIDIA Inception Program.
