# When Video Becomes a Sensor: Turning AI-Powered Video Into Real-Time Operational Intelligence

#### **Availability:** On-Demand Access

## Watch the webinar on-demand!

Watch the webinar on-demand to learn how AI is turning cameras from passive recording devices into real-time operational sensors — and what it takes to deploy that at scale.

Most video systems today are built to record, not to think. That's changing fast: across transport, utilities, healthcare and smart cities, organizations are moving from reviewing footage after an incident to detecting it the moment it happens — and triggering a response before anyone has to watch the feed.

Getting there at scale has been a genuine barrier. AI at the edge means more data to move, and the uplink bandwidth needed to carry that video back to the network core is often the tightest part of the connection — pushing organizations to choose between video quality and predictable cost.

In this on-demand session, Semtech and Digital Barriers explain how their joint solution - Semtech Video Compression - with EdgeVis intelligent compression natively integrated into the AirLink XR60 — removes that trade-off, with a live side-by-side technology demonstration.

**What you'll learn:**

- Why AI is turning video from passive recording into real-time operational intelligence
- What's really standing in the way of scaling AI-powered video — quality, connectivity, bandwidth and cost
- How Semtech's smart connectivity and Digital Barriers' compression combine to remove that trade-off
- What a live, side-by-side AI-optimized video transmission looks like in practice

## Watch the webinar on-demand!

When your emergency teams need to stream or offload video from the field, does your network deliver – every single time?

Emergency services are increasingly relying on live video – from body cameras to ANPR and live facial recognition (LFR) – but many networks aren't built for it.

The result? Dropped feeds at critical moments and video becomes a burden rather than the critical asset it should be.

This webinar features a panel discussion hosted by Emergency Services Times on Optimising Video Solutions for Emergency Services. Hear directly from experts at Semtech, Digital Barriers and North Yorkshire Police as they share:

- Real-world video challenges facing emergency services
- How reliable connectivity makes video truly mission-critical
- How to optimize video workflows across BWV, ANPR, and LFR

Learn from both technology providers and frontline users who've navigated these exact challenges.
