Dynamically Optimized (Adaptive) bit-rate compression CODEC w/ built-in AI
  • Visionary’s highly efficient video compression codec is a modified full frame encoding that dynamically optimizes for fine lines (computer generated graphics) or motion video by using sophisticated AI to analyze the input source content. Actively matching the level of compression to a scene by leveraging periods of low motion video content reduces the stream’s size and enhances performance – enabling, without compromising image quality, Visually Lossless transmission of computer generated graphics or full-motion video sources.

  • Supports both A2DP profile for media streaming andHands Free Profile (HFP) for bi-directional smartphone bridging
  • Connect easily and share audio from your Mac, Laptop, Tablet, Mobile, and Other Bluetooth® enabled devices
Enterprise Level Security –AES Encryption, 802.1x, HTTPS, SSH

Enterprise applications demand a secure Network

  • AES Stream Encryption – The Advanced Encryption Standard, or AES, is a worldwide standard and was adopted as the standard encryption algorithm by the U.S. government for encrypting classified information
  • HTTPS Secure API – Using secure SSL/TLS communications HTTPS provides integrity that a client is communicating with the real API and receiving back authentic data. It also ensures privacy for applications and users using the API
  • 802.1x Authentication for Network access control – 802.1X provides a secure authentication mechanism for any device trying to access a network
  • SSH Network Protocol – SSH is a network protocol used to remotely access and manage a device through command line communications. The key difference between Telnet (used by other AV over IP manufacturers) and SSH is that SSH uses encryption, which means that all data transmitted over a network is secure
Independent Routing
  • Independently route all signals with the ability to separately matrix video & audio
