Maintaining Actionability and Efficacy in Dynamic Military Environments – Successful Deployment of ISR Video
Jan. 31, 2024 - Dynamic military environments require real-time full-motion video intelligence to be responsive and actionable.
This is where Intelligence, Surveillance and Reconnaissance (ISR) video offers a means of securing and maintaining strategic and tactical advantages.
VITEC has worked within the Intelligence, Surveillance, Target Acquisition and Reconnaissance (ISTAR) sector for more than 20 years, with a product lineup designed to withstand the critical nature of military and government operations.
What is Change-Bit-Rate-on-the-Fly technology and why is it important for ISR?
Bitrates are measured by the size of a video frame and how many are taken per second. When video quality is higher, more images are required to process for each second of video, requiring higher bitrates.
Change-Bit-Rate-on-the-Fly technology becomes more important for ISR as a feature that allows one to affect the quality of image in tactical field intelligence. This means that information isn’t received late due to frames dropping due to network latency or inability to identify images due to pixels, which could be the difference between life and death.
These features show how technological progress has allowed more sensors with greater capacity to be implemented on ISR platforms. From drones to helicopters, ISR innovations have meant that cameras can capture video in detail with sensors that can detect temperature changes in the environment. ISR platforms have more information to be shared than at any point in history.
How commercial streaming is improving share data across devices
Commercial streaming companies like Netflix and Amazon Prime have used video standards to compress data into formats for live streaming or to be packaged for efficient data downloads. Reducing bandwidth while keeping the clarity and picture quality required is crucial from businesses and economic standpoints.
Within the military theatre of operations, sharing ISR video intelligence across many devices is crucial. Keeping ISR infrastructures agnostic to the networking and endpoint environment is enabled through compression standards.
The market applications of ISR video
