OVERCOME CONNECTIVITY CHALLENGES WITH SECURE REAL-TIME VIDEO STREAMING, OPTIMIZED FOR LOW-BANDWIDTH ENVIRONMENTS. 

VAST™ is a cutting-edge video encoding and compression platform optimized for minimal bandwidth and ultra-low latency, ideal for tactical scenarios and edge networks. By utilizing dynamic resolution and AI-driven rate control, VAST™ streams real-time SD video at just 10 kbps and HD video at under 50 kbps, all while maintaining clarity through the AV1 compression standard.

The solution is highly flexible, available as software or within software-defined appliances, and can run locally, in the cloud, or on VAST™ hardware devices. These devices support advanced edge computing, making them suitable for remote operations and IoT sensor workflows. VAST™ is ultra-secure, with quantum-resistant cryptography and source-encoded video, preventing manipulation during transit or storage to mitigate the risk of deep fakes.

The VAST™ solution is ideal for various applications, including defense, broadcasting, disaster response and IoT infrastructure monitoring.
