Camera IoT cloud analytics

The AWS IoT Camera Connector Quick Start automates the connection and simplifies the management of thousands of cameras through AWS IoT Core and enables video streaming to Amazon Kinesis Video Streams for storage, playback, and machine learning-driven analytics. We also discuss how AWS has partnered with leading camera manufacturers to make it easy for our customers to procure cloud-enabled IP cameras that leverage AWS IoT Core and Kinesis Video Streams.

Security cameras are common across physical sites such as office buildings, retail stores, airports, and even our homes. Cameras are key to maintaining the safety and security of people and property.

Traditionally, cameras operate in silos, distinct from corporate IT systems, and require a separate compute and data storage infrastructure

• The ability to discover and connect the security cameras on their local networks to AWS IoT services
• The ability to monitor the health of each camera
• The ability to securely stream video into the AWS Cloud for storage, playback, and video analytics

The AWS IoT Camera Connector Quick Start meets these requirements

the cameras can easily use the AWS machine-learning capabilities through services like Kinesis Video Streams and a variety of Amazon Machine Learning Services.
