Introducing Videosoft Global: pioneers in Low-Bandwidth Video Streaming for UAVs

Videosoft Global stands at the forefront of ultra-low bandwidth video streaming technology tailored for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) adn robotics. UST is thrilled to announce our partnership with Videosoft, and we will be showcasing their innovative solutions and capabilities across our platforms over the coming year.

New Supplier Profile Launch

we have recently unveiled Videosoft’s UST supplier profile, crafted in collaboration with their team. This Gold profile highlights their advanced adaptive video compression and transmission technology, which enables streaming capabilities ranging from 1kbps to multi-Mb/s full HD. This technology ensures the delivery of high-quality video across various wireless networks, including satellite, mesh, and cellular systems.

Exploring the FireLight™ video Platform

The FireLight™ video platform is designed for real-time, low-latency video surveillance, essential for ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, and Reconnaissance) and other critical UAS and UxV operations. By employing advanced encoding techniques and bandwidth management, it operates efficiently at ultra-low bitrates, making it suitable for cellular, SATCOM, or mesh RF networks.

Beyond mere streaming, FireLight™ enhances mission-critical remote operations with its vital features. It provides real-time data to facilitate informed decision-making, considerably improving surveillance and defense operations with accuracy and effectiveness.

Core Component: Edge Gateway Software

The Edge Gateway software serves as the central video and data processing unit within the FireLight™ ecosystem, acting as the system’s powerhouse. All Videosoft hardware gateways come equipped with this software, which can also be purchased separately for integration with various hardware platforms, including Raspberry Pi, embedded systems, and third-party routers.

Comprehensive Monitoring with FireLight

FireLight enables users to oversee multiple areas of interest together,providing a holistic view of operations. By connecting various cameras and devices to the edge gateway, users can record video, audio, and data locally in high quality, either on-demand or triggered by alarms, while streaming live to remote users or Video Management Systems over networks like 3G, 4G, 5G, satellite, and wireless.

Hardware Solutions: the FireBird Series

The FireBird F-100 is Videosoft’s most compact hardware video gateway,measuring just 105 x 47 x 25 mm,making it ideal for applications with stringent size,weight,and power (SWaP) requirements. This unit can output up to four simultaneous full HD streams to command centers or field operators and includes built-in local storage,a GPS receiver,and a 3G/4G cellular modem.

For more rugged applications, the F-300 video gateway features four PoE ports for direct IP camera connections, delivering up to four simultaneous full HD streams. Built to MIL-STD-810G standards, it is indeed perfect for UAV and unmanned systems operations in challenging environments, offering local storage, a GPS receiver, and a 4G LTE cellular modem.

The F-600 stands as Videosoft’s most robust video recorder, accommodating four direct IP camera inputs or up to eight with a switch, and providing up to eight simultaneous full HD streams. It includes a comprehensive suite of NVR capabilities and a local user interface for easy monitoring, control, and review of recordings through a connected display. This rugged unit is also MIL-STD-810G-rated for use in harsh field conditions.

streamlined Mobile Streaming with FireFly

The user-kind firefly software application allows live audio and video streaming from any Android-based mobile device, offering a highly portable solution that leverages Videosoft’s cutting-edge bandwidth-efficient encoding and transmission technology.

Users can install the FireFly app on their personal devices, or Videosoft can provide a customized smartphone with the camera repositioned for optimal use.
