Pictum: Technology in the service of science and life for schools and research centers
Observing living things without altering them is a major challenge for research.
Understanding the behaviors, interactions, and dynamics of species requires precise, continuous, and reliable devices.
With Pictum Live, technology is becoming an ally of scientific research. It allows for the analysis of animal behavior, the collection of structured data, and the opening of new study perspectives, both in natural environments and in controlled settings.
Observe, analyze, and understand animal behavior
Traditional methods often rely on spot observations.
Pictum offers a complementary approach based on automated image analysis, in real-time or from recordings.
A gain in precision.
A time saver.
A new way of reading life.
Why study animal behavior with Pictum Live?
Behavior is at the heart of understanding ecosystems.
Accessing continuous data:
Human fatigue can cause important data to be missed. Technology, however, functions the same way but continuously, without the effect of fatigue.
We don't miss any data.
Reduce observation bias:
Human observations are limited in time.
Pictum Live operates continuously and captures behaviors that are often invisible or difficult to document.
Pictum Live: behavioral analysis in real-time
Pictum Live is based on the analysis of images from on-site cameras.
The system identifies species and tracks their movements and interactions.
Automated behavioral analysis
Depending on the context of study, Pictum can contribute to:
-
observe the movements,
-
analyze the attendance areas,
-
identify repetitive or unusual behaviors,
-
to follow interactions between individuals.
These data enrich behavioral analyses.
A device adaptable to different protocols
Pictum Live integrates with existing or experimental protocols, depending on research objectives.
A device for the field, laboratory, and conservation centers
Pictum adapts to different research environments.
Field research
Rivers, wetlands, marine environments, reserves...
Pictum Live allows for observation without disturbing ecosystems.
Controlled environment research
Experimental ponds, aquariums, conservation centers...
The device complements existing devices.
Structured data for scientific research
Pictum Live is based on the analysis of images from on-site cameras.
The system identifies species and tracks their movements and interactions.
Actionable data
Analyses can feed into:
-
scientific studies,
-
longitudinal follow-ups,
-
Comparisons between sites or periods.
A platform for publications and collaborative projects
Data from Pictum can contribute to publications, reports, or collaborative research projects, at national or international levels.
The benefits for research projects:
Automated Behavioral Analysis
Fine observation of intra- and interspecies interactions
Device adaptable to the field, laboratory, and research centers
Structured data source for studies and publications
Support for applied or fundamental research
Non-intrusive and continuous approach
Open new perspectives for your research
With Pictum Live, technology supports science.
It enables us to observe more, better, and for longer periods of time, advancing our understanding of living organisms.
Get in touch with us
Practical Information:
To date, application broadcast hardware is not provided to all of our clients.
Ideally, this cost center is managed internally by the client. VISIOON assists with the selection of the most suitable equipment, without taking a margin or providing maintenance for it.
If necessary, we can provide the materials for an additional charge. We have a partnership with Digilor, which allows us to offer any type of terminal based on the client's specific needs.
