Bosch Video Systems Unveils AI-Enabled Solutions

Bosch Video Systems will introduce products and solutions designed to significantly enhance situational awareness for customers. Visitors to the GSX booth 1555 will experience a GenAI solution with reasoning capabilities, cameras with edge-based AI, and the latest version of BVMS software that helps users focus on events that need attention. Leveraging visual intelligence, the new offerings empower customers to anticipate potential incidents and quickly take measures to address adverse situations.

By transforming simple user-created prompts into detailed, actionable instructions for monitoring specific tasks, IVA Pro Context acts as an intelligent assistant for customers. It uses a next-generation hybrid architecture that combines edge-based AI video analytics with the deep contextual understanding of cloud-based GenAI. At the edge, IVA Pro performs real-time object detection, activity recognition, and metadata generation delivering the first layer of semantic insight directly from the camera. In the cloud, IVA Pro Context takes over to analyze the scene in depth, providing a second layer of intelligence. This layer helps users understand what is happening and why it matters in a specific scenario to support proactive decision-making and problem solving across complex environments.

GSX booth visitors will also see an expanded portfolio of AI-enabled cameras designed to enhance surveillance and perimeter security. The DINION thermal 8100i camera combines advanced thermal imaging with built-in IVA Pro Perimeter to capture images of intruders who are moving, crawling, rolling, or camouflaged up to 1,923 feet away. Uncooled microbolometer / VOx thermal technology and large aperture optics capture even the slightest temperature changes in people and objects. When combined with IVA Pro Perimeter, the cameras provide the most reliable long-distance object detection while minimizing false positives to ensure operators receive alerts only when needed.

The latest AUTODOME 7100i cameras feature built-in IVA Pro Buildings, IVA Pro Perimeter, and the new IVA Pro Privacy. IVA Pro delivers reliable and precise object detection and classification for city surveillance, traffic monitoring, and long-distance perimeter detection. With IVA Pro Privacy, the cameras collect actionable insights while ensuring anonymization using semi-transparent masks for moving objects, faces, individuals, or vehicles. The cameras also support IVA Pro Traffic, IVA Pro Intelligent Tracking, and IVA Pro Appearance licenses for intelligent monitoring of traffic and crowds.

BVMS 13.0 improves operators’ ability to assess a situation through interactive maps. Operators can see real-time movement of objects, such as people and vehicles, directly on a map, along with designated activity zones. This feature provides a live and intuitive overview of what is happening and where. Supporting early detection of unusual activity, BVMS transforms video into actionable intelligence empowering users to respond faster and seamlessly manage operations.
