Bosch Start-up announces new IoT Platform for Security Camera Ecosystem
The Bosch start-up Security and Safety Things (SAST) announced its vision for a revolutionary IoT platform in the security camera segment. SAST is currently building a global ecosystem for the development of security camera applications. Although the open and secure IoT platform is initially for the security camera industry, the platform will be extended to support additional IoT domains in the future. The platform is set to launch in mid-2019.
The founding of SAST, which aims to be the industry’s first open and standardized operating system and global marketplace for security camera applications, is in direct response to current innovative trends for IP security cameras. Increasing internet connectivity and computing power at the edge is fostering the rise of edge-based video analytics. Within this global market, SAST anticipates specialized software applications to emerge as a significant growth segment during the next five years.
