Project Summary
Tooploox (formerly MicroscopeIT) supported a software development agency by delivering computer vision and machine learning components for a biometric solution. They developed microservices and trained ML models using a Python stack (including TensorFlow) and integrated their work into the agency’s web and mobile apps. Their R&D-focused engagement included research, risk assessment, and proposing alternative solutions, allowing the agency to kickstart its own team.
Key Challenges
- The client lacked in-house experience in advanced biometrics and computer vision.
- The client needed external help to kickstart the project, choose a direction, and produce fast results.
- The problem required R&D rather than a standard agile delivery, making requirements and outcomes uncertain.
Project Deliverables
- Microservices
- Machine learning models
- Computer vision components
- Research and solution proposals
Project Solution
MicroscopeIT developed computer vision and machine learning components for a biometric solution, built microservices, and trained multiple ML models for use in the client’s web and mobile applications. They used the Python stack (including TensorFlow and Docker), performed independent research, assessed risks, proposed several solution approaches, and worked in an R&D-style engagement rather than a standard Scrum project.
Project Outcome
- The client was able to kickstart their own team based on MicroscopeIT’s initial input and help.
- The end customer for the biometric solution was pleased with the results.
- MicroscopeIT was responsive and delivered on time despite occasional communication issues.
