Optimize real-time video and metadata across any network. The Kraken Video Processing Platform ensures high video quality, low latency, and interoperability for defense and ISR applications.
Kraken is a comprehensive video processing platform that combines software flexibility and hardware acceleration to encode, transcode, and transport high quality video and metadata in real-time. Ideal for defense and ISR, Kraken excels in limited bandwidth environments, supporting diverse protocols and codecs. Kraken provides flexible deployment options, making it the ideal solution for all full-motion video processing challenges.
Kraken ensures the highest quality real-time video and metadata transport, enabling quick decision-making with mission-critical information. Its low latency and robust processing capabilities ensure that vital video content is transmitted securely and efficiently for situational awareness in defense and ISR operations.
Kraken optimizes video and metadata for transport over constrained networks. It can encode, transcode, or convert protocols, providing the optimal stream for any ISR situation. Kraken overcomes packet loss and jitter using the SRT protocol, ensuring reliable, high-quality video transmission over satellite and beyond-line-of-sight networks.
MISB standards compliant, Kraken supports KLV metadata to preserve geospatial information along with video. Additional metadata including security and classification markings can also be included in compliance with cross domain solutions and policy requirements. When communicating over low bitrate links, Kraken can apply metadata filtering to optimize bandwidth consumption.
Kraken supports a wide range of video protocols and codecs, ensuring compatibility with modern and legacy ISR communication devices through transcoding to known formats and protocols. Adhering to industry standards, it facilitates smooth integration across complex workflows, ensuring consistent video delivery and enhancing compatibility with downstream systems.
Maximize flexibility with Kraken’s versatile deployment options. Available as a portable appliance, rack-mountable server, virtual machine, or cloud-based solution, Kraken adapts to any operational requirement, providing the adaptability needed for diverse deployment environments and platforms.
Kraken adheres to MISB and STANAG standards, ensuring compliance and interoperability with defense systems. It supports a range of applications, from ISR backhaul and tactical network distribution to command center operations and critical infrastructure monitoring.
Kraken Virtual Machine (VM) and its powerful low-latency video encoding, transcoding, and routing technology can be integrated into ISR systems, such as tactical communication kits and centralized data centers, all without the need for additional physical hardware.
