omniCompressor is software running on Intel-based hardware. It takes camera outputs (H.264/H.265/MJPEG) and compresses them further, without changing the codec, via RTSP/ONVIF/HTTP protocols.
No, omniCompressor uses existing codecs (H.264/H.265/MJPEG) provided by the camera. It only compresses the video stream further.
Yes, omniCompressor supports both audio and video compression if audio is enabled on the camera. Audio comes from the camera's microphone.
Yes, omniCompressor works with third-party VMS systems (e.g., Milestone, Avigilon, Hikvision) via RTSP/ONVIF. We also offer our own VMS, OmniVMS Lite.
No, video analytics that work on uncompressed streams will also work on compressed streams. You can test this in a PoC.
You can use external tools to calculate the storage for original camera streams. For compressed storage, we provide calculations based on anas a safety margin, though we can compress up to 90%.
Latency is minimal (approx. 0.12 seconds) as compression reduces file size, easing transmission and network congestion.
OmniCompressor uses AES256 encryption as an optional component to ensure secure video transmission, following international standards.
Yes, OmniCompressor supports cloud storage integration for storing and managing compressed videos.
