At the show, Vivotek introduced the latest innovations in its cloud-based Vortex platform and premiered a commemorative video marking 25 years of global impact.

Smarter security with AI-powered search and VLM Integration

One of the key highlights at ISC West was the unveiling of AI-Hub, the newest addition to Vortex. This centralised platform integrates a suite of AI functions—Deep Search, Event Insight, Re-Search, and Case Vault—into a seamless user interface. Designed to simplify operations and improve response time, the AI-Hub enables users to swiftly identify incidents, track individuals or vehicles, and generate comprehensive event reports.

At the core of AI-Hub lies its Search by Text function, powered by a cutting-edge Vision-Language Model (VLM). This technology enables users to conduct video searches using natural, everyday language, eliminating the need for complex filtering or manual review. By linking video content with descriptive text input, Vivotek has created a more intuitive, accessible way to interact with surveillance data. The feature captured strong interest from both attendees and media during the expo, positioning Vivotek at the forefront of user-centric AI innovation.

25 years of innovation

To mark its 25th anniversary, Vivotek premiered a point-of-view video titled, Journey Through the Lens, which traces the company’s evolution from a small research team at National Taiwan University to a globally recognised brand in IP surveillance. The film revisits pivotal moments in Vivotek’s history, including its instrumental role in the dramatic 2010 Chilean mine rescue, where its technology helped locate and rescue 33 trapped miners.

Looking towards the next 25 years, the video also highlights the brand’s ongoing pursuit of innovation through AI and cloud technologies.
