Product Overview — High-Performance AI Server for Vision Analytics
The Metrici HighSYS-AI is a high-performance, workstation-class AI server built to run several Metrici deep neural network engines at the same time. With a discrete Nvidia GPU working alongside the Intel NPU, it is made for demanding multi-camera environments — running LPR, parking detection, and thermal analysis simultaneously with headroom to spare.
The unit is delivered as a ready-to-use appliance: the operating system and Metrici engines are pre-installed, so no software setup is required on site. The engines are then customised for the specific deployment — adding cameras, configuring detection parameters, and completing setup in the Metrici Web Interface. All processing happens locally on the unit; no data has to leave your premises.
Metrici AI Servers come in six tiers, from a compact edge device to a data-center-scale platform. HighSYS-AI sits in the high-performance tier — the choice for multi-engine deployments and campus-wide or industrial camera coverage that benefits from GPU acceleration.
Each tier is pre-validated with Metrici software before delivery, and the architecture is designed to scale — you can move up to a higher tier as a deployment grows. If you are unsure which model fits, Metrici’s team sizes the system based on your cameras, engines, and expected workload.

The HighSYS-AI is configured to run any combination of Metrici detection engines at the same time, and the discrete GPU lets it handle several heavy engines together. Common engines include:
The unit supports up to 10 cameras. The exact number it can drive comfortably depends on the engine mix, frame rates, and detection load — a single light engine reaches the upper figure more easily than several heavy engines running together.
The HighSYS-AI arrives ready to use. To bring it online for the first time:
The operating system completes boot within roughly 30–60 seconds, and the Metrici engines start automatically as background services. The unit’s IP address is either pre-configured by Metrici before shipping (documented in the delivery note) or obtained from your network by DHCP. From there, configuration is completed in the Metrici Web Interface.
Install the unit on a stable surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and high-dust environments. Leave clearance around the chassis so air can move freely through the vents, and avoid enclosed cabinets without active ventilation. Because this tier includes a discrete GPU, it produces more heat under load than the lower tiers, so unobstructed airflow matters even more.
