In today’s world, video cameras are ubiquitous, capturing countless hours of footage every day. But raw video is just that – raw. It’s a passive record of events, often requiring significant time and effort to review and extract meaningful information. This is where video analytics comes in.
Video analytics is the process of automatically analyzing video content to identify patterns, events, and other valuable information. It uses sophisticated algorithms and artificial intelligence to go beyond simple recording and playback, essentially turning video into a source of actionable intelligence. Think of it as giving your video system a “brain” that can understand and interpret what it sees.
