INDUSTRY OVERVIEW
Ubiquitous surveillance keeps us safe and protected. Now, with the power of AI, real-time detection and analysis can identify threats or anything else a trained AI system can recognize. The cost of these advances is higher demands on input video quality, the quantity of data, and the processing cost of running computationally intensive algorithms at the edge. As these systems grow in complexity, their stability becomes evermore critical to keep processes flowing as they should.
CHALLENGES
UNCOMPROMISING STABILITY
Lag can ruin data recording quality and drastically reduce the effectiveness of a surveillance solution. Memory is a critical component in keeping the system running smoothly, and within the modern application environment, it has an additional impact on AI performance.
FULLY ENABLING SIMULTANEOUS OPERATIONS
Surveillance has always needed storage, but those requirements have increased in terms of both speed and capacity. Storage options near the edge have the additional demand for low-profile formats such as M.2 and mPCIe while retaining heat dissipation prowess.
SIMPLIFYING SYSTEM EXPANSION
Modern surveillance systems are part of safety infrastructure. They actively analyze footage and respond in real time. A system at the network edge needs expansion capabilities to accommodate connections with various external systems and data networks.
