TotalMedia & Inventec Debut Distributed AI Video Intelligence Platform

TotalMedia, in collaboration with infrastructure partner Inventec, debuted its AI video compression-driven distributed vision AI safety platform. Designed to dramatically reduce LTE/5G transmission costs and storage requirements, the platform applies AI perceptual and content-aware compression at the edge before enabling centralized reasoning tiers powered by accelerated infrastructure. By applying intelligent front-end optimization at the edge, the system reduces bandwidth requirements by up to 90 % before selectively transmitting verified events for deeper centralized analysis when required.
TotalMedia’s platform distributes intelligence across the edge and core, allowing events to be processed locally, transmitted over LTE/5G networks and delivered to operators with verified context in real time.
“Security teams operating remote locations are under pressure to expand coverage without expanding costs,” said William Wong, CEO, TotalMedia. “We designed this platform to fundamentally change that equation. By combining AI compression, distributed intelligence and centralized reasoning, organizations can reduce data costs, cut false alarms and scale monitoring across thousands of sites without increasing staffing requirements.”
The platform architecture connects five core components (camera, EdgeAI compression and processing, intelligent recording, vision language model (VLM) intelligence layer and centralized management) into a unified workflow optimized for bandwidth efficiency, detection accuracy and operational scalability.
