Motorola Solutions Acquires Blue Eye

Motorola Solutions today announced it has acquired Blue Eye, a leading provider of AI-powered enterprise remote video monitoring (RVM) services, based in Salt Lake City, Utah.

Blue Eye provides a comprehensive RVM service powered by AI to help detect threats in real time, enabling live voice talk-downs to deter crime and providing verified alerts to help accelerate law enforcement response. The company’s software platform is interoperable with leading cameras and video management systems (VMS), allowing enterprises to integrate with existing security solutions.

These RVM services are managed by 24-hour security operations centers (SOCs) that provide businesses with enhanced situational awareness and includes reporting analytics that highlight activity trends.

“Security professionals know that the challenge isn’t solely identifying the threat; it’s about moving from detection to action in a matter of seconds,” said Mahesh Saptharishi, executive vice president and chief technology officer, Motorola Solutions. "The acquisition of Blue Eye is a key component of our strategic focus to provide a single, tightly integrated workflow that seamlessly connects threat detection, verification and response."

Relied upon by retail, warehouse, manufacturing and distribution centers, critical infrastructure, and commercial real estate owners, Blue Eye’s platform helps business owners access real-time intelligence to help reduce loss or damage, mitigate risk and enhance profitability.

Motorola Solutions plans to integrate its advanced AI capabilities into Blue Eye's RVM platform, further differentiating this technology. For example, an AI-powered detection from Motorola Solutions’ Visual Alerts can be verified by Blue Eye and fed directly into our incident management platform, Inform, to automatically orchestrate a response. Additionally, the company plans to expand Blue Eye’s reach across key enterprise sectors through Motorola Solutions’ channel partner network.

“Blue Eye's purpose is to deliver proactive, real-time security and business optimization. Joining Motorola Solutions allows us to accelerate this mission," said Steve Jackson, CEO, Blue Eye. "Motorola Solutions’ global scale and deep AI expertise will help expand our reach, advance our solutions and deepen our impact on enterprise security.”

Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
