artec technologies AG: AI-supported open source technology proves its worth
in crisis situations

Diepholz, 22 February 2024: The world is in a constant state of tension,
marked by geopolitical events, attempted coups, changes of government, and
natural disasters that occur almost daily. At the same time, we are
experiencing an explosion of information sources in which both facts and
misinformation are spreading at an unprecedented rate. Modern surveillance
systems can quickly capture publicly available news from crisis zones - from
radio and television to social media - and create a rough picture of the
situation. By integrating artificial intelligence (AI), organizations can
effectively meet their information needs. As part of a consortium centered
around Radiosphere GmbH (radiosphere.de), experts such as artec technologies
AG (ISIN DE0005209589) and other renowned market players are contributing
crucial modules for gathering and analyzing information. The efficiency of
this partnership was recently demonstrated by the requirements of a
customer.

The task was to gather initial information and maintain an overview during a
coup in a country in the Sahel region. The main challenge was that the
internet was blocked on site, which made it very difficult to obtain and
analyze information digitally. This left only the analysis of analogue
sources such as television and radio. The situation was further complicated
by the return of the national broadcasters to the African languages Hausa
and Kanuri, after previously broadcasting in French.

In order to receive local radio and television stations and monitor the
sources, satellite capacities were rented in rapid succession and (raw)
video streams were recorded - including those from neighboring countries.
Using special data loggers, the transmissions were recorded and transcribed
from the original language (French, Hausa, Kanuri) into English with the
help of AI modules. Spelling and grammar rules such as punctuation and
capitalization were taken into account. The data was then fed into the
monitoring system of a leading European provider by Radiosphere GmbH, among
others. With the help of a conversation analysis, the customer was able to
make an extremely meaningful assessment of the situation and summarize the
discourse.

The data loggers were provided by artec technologies AG. The XENTAURIX
system used offers extremely versatile data logging that can process all
leading broadcast and webcasting standards and formats. XENTAURIX is an
indispensable system for storing, analyzing, and processing broadcast
content from TV, radio, and webcast stations. The latest feature is the
AI-based, multilingual speech recognition (Speech-to-Text, S2T for short).

The use of transcription and translation in over 50 different languages
offers completely new perspectives for broadcasters, press and news
agencies, digital publishers, crisis centers, media monitoring agencies,
news services as well as financial and business sectors.

Event note: artec will participate in the General Police Equipment
Exhibition & Conference (GPEC) from May 6 to May 8, 2024.
