Bridging the worlds of NVIDIA Metropolis / EGX and Video Management Systems
, Milestone Systems
The NVIDIA EGX Platform aims to provide an end-to-end infrastructure that makes deployment and management of Intelligent Video Analytics apps easy with a low total cost of ownership. Part of such an end-to-end solution is to integrate with video cameras. Often these are managed by Video Management Systems (VMS), and there is a significant development cost involved in integrating with these. Each VMS has its own proprietary protocols for accessing cameras and also very different ways of sending data like events and metadata back into the VMS. In this session, we will propose a new API specification that aims to standardize how Intelligent Video Analytics apps integrate with Video Management Systems. We will present a concrete implementation of a gateway that bridges Intelligent Video Analytics with the Milestone XProtect VMS.
