STREAMING FOR CAMERAS
AND IoT DEVICES

We integrate the Streaming, which ensures the high reliability of your security systems, enabling you to respond to any incidents promptly
and provide high-quality evidence instantly for your peace of mind.

Our Expertise
in Streaming

We deliver an outstanding video experience across all platforms. As most of our solutions run on embedded systems, we constantly collaborate with hardware vendors to achieve optimal performance and deliver exceptional features. We achieve outstanding results thanks to:

Audio/Video Streaming

Infrastructure and Security Engineering

From developing comprehensive streaming platforms to optimizing video streams for resource-constrained devices, our team provides a complete development cycle. We offer cloud-based media processing services and create SDKs for easy integration of streaming features into your apps.
Our expertise will cover your request in:

Design and development of end-to-end streaming solutions

We build complete streaming systems customized for your product.

Embedded resource-constrained video streaming
(Linux, RTOS)

We optimize video streaming for devices with limited computing power and memory, running on Linux or real-time operating systems.

Cloud media processing services

We use cloud infrastructure to handle media transcoding, storage, and distribution at scale.

Streaming SDK development

We develop robust Software Development Kits that enable seamless integration of streaming capabilities into your applications.

Low-latency streaming solutions

We ensure real-time video delivery with minimal delay—ideal for surveillance and interactive use cases.

The Equipment
We Use

To address deep technical challenges and accelerate the development process, we established a laboratory to provide our teams with state-of-the-art equipment, enabling us to simulate various constraints for testing video quality in complex scenarios. Each team involved in streaming at different stages has its platform for experimentation, encompassing both new feature inventions and sustaining activities.

VIDEO STREAMING LAB

The Lab enables conducting Video Quality (VQ) evaluation tests for security cameras and doorbells under various WiFi conditions and different video scenes. Using this Lab, the team optimizes video encoder settings and tunes streaming algorithms to achieve the best video quality for various video scenes and network conditions. The Lab also allows for assessing changes in streaming and investigating streaming issues in the early stages.

On average, up to 50 tests per day of varying complexity are conducted here. With its help, we developed an algorithm for optimizing the bitrate while preserving video quality, which reduces network data usage and, accordingly, storage space by 10-70% (depending on the complexity of the scene).

The Equipment We Use | Squad Tech

Under the hood:

Faraday Fabric cover, isolating the Lab from outside signals.
An attenuator to control the amplitude of the WiFi signal.
A projector with a projection screen.
Tools for video quality assessment.
Equipment to simulate network impairments (PacketStorm, routers with QoS, SW tools).
