Department Overview

Video Solutions teams in the Kraków R&D center have been growing dynamically since 2019. Currently, we have more than 150 specialists on board working on solutions for fixed and mobile cameras, video analytics, video management systems, and access control. We serve public safety and commercial customers including healthcare, airports, retail, critical infrastructure, and public venues. No longer is video just reactive—looking back at what has taken place—but it also informs proactively, issuing alerts in real-time when a person, object, or vehicle appears or a perimeter is crossed.

To speed up the development of the Avigilon portfolio (https://www.avigilon.com), we are building out our embedded software engineering capabilities. Our team works closely with Avigilon teams in London and Oslo to deliver cutting-edge camera platforms.
