Case Studies

Discover how Scan helps organisations to deploy IT solutions to achieve their goals in a myriad of use cases including audio, video, graphics, AI, cloud, digital signage and esports

Academic Research

Higher education is at the frontlines of major global challenges, training innovators in technologies such as AI, accelerated cloud computing and data science. At the same time, institutions need to meet the demand for more flexible, accessible education options. The ability to handle large workloads, increase efficiency and lower operational costs with centralised infrastructure and computational excellence is key to enable researchers to leverage advanced visualisation techniques such as modelling and simulation alongside experimental computation to address the biggest challenges.

AEC & Manufacturing

Architects and engineers within the construction and manufacturing industries are turning to advanced visualisation and AI-powered technologies to unleash improved product design, real-time collaboration and predictive maintenance capabilities. These help to reduce costs with better scheduling practices, driving efficiencies within procedures, whilst processes can be optimised using sensors and cameras to spot problems before they cause delays or shutdowns. Interactive signage in industrial environments can also contribute to better safety and communication on the shop-floor.

Financial Services Sector

The FSI (financial services sector) faces a growing number of challenges - massive datasets, perpetual market fluctuations, the need for swift analysis and rising demand for personalised assistance. Intelligent GPU-accelerated technologies can address critical challenges within the modern FSI allowing institutions to boost risk management, make better data-backed decisions, increase security and reduce fraud - all whilst enhancing customer experiences with advances such as natural language processing (NLP) being implemented to better tailor customer interactions.

Healthcare

The world's leading health organisations are equipping their doctors and scientists with GPU-accelerated compute systems to drive adoption of technologies such as AI and advanced visualisation, helping them transform lives and the future of research. This allows institutions to tackle interoperable data, meet the increasing demand for personalised medicine and develop next-generation VR-enabled operating theatres. It is also being used to increase accuracy and reduce diagnosis times, freeing consultants up to perform more surgeries, and accelerate areas such as image analysis and drug discovery.

Media & Entertainment

Industries such as filmmaking, game development and esports are embracing technologies including advanced visualisation, AI and cloud. Powering virtual production studios, collaborative real-time working and gaming tournaments, they lead to cost savings, process efficiencies and drive significant competitive edge within their sectors.

Retail & Marketing

Leading retailers are leveraging AI to reduce shrinkage, improve forecasting and automate warehouse logistics. Advanced visualisation helps deliver interactive marketing enabling customer personalisation and recommendations, and deliver better shopping experiences—both in stores and online. Understanding customer behaviour has never been more critical for retailers looking to drive growth and video analytics, powered by AI, can give retailers the same visibility into customer behaviour in stores as they currently have online.

Robotics Industry

From smart automation in manufacturing to last-mile delivery, robots are becoming more ubiquitous in everyday life. Today's robots can do more than just perform tasks - they can learn, adapt and evolve using capabilities such as machine learning, computer vision, navigation and more. The AI in robots not only helps to learn the model to perform certain tasks but also makes machines more intelligently react to different scenarios, making them much more flexible to deal with everyday situations.

Smart Cities & Transportation

Autonomous vehicles are transforming the way we live, work and play, creating safer and more efficient roads. With the power of GPU-accelerated systems embedded within vehicles, AI models can be deployed to improve road safety, increase productivity and develop greener transportation. Embedded platforms can simultaneously process data from a wide array of sensors, constantly collecting vital data for building a robust autonomous driving training library spanning a wide variety of traffic scenarios and conditions - essential for the development of safe self-driving vehicles.

Space & Earth Science

Technologies such as AI and cloud are enabling an exciting new era of enhanced capabilities for agencies such as NASA and ESA. Their power and flexibility allow exploration and application of new methods to address critical challenges in earth science, space exploration and planetary stewardship. With our planet’s challenges mounting, data from satellites is enabling the investigation of phenomena such as floods, superstorms and global wildfires, with the ultimate aim of prediction and forewarning - for the benefit of all humankind.
