Cloud Video Analytics is the use of cloud-based computing and AI to analyze video footage, often in real time or near real time. Video streams from cameras are sent to cloud infrastructure, where computer vision models can identify objects, detect events, track movement, or extract patterns without requiring all processing to happen on local recording equipment.
It is useful for applications such as security monitoring, retail analytics, traffic management, and industrial surveillance. Centralized cloud processing allows organizations to analyze footage from multiple locations and apply updated analytics models without replacing the cameras themselves.
