UniMatrix Cloud Camera Analytics Initiative Examined - Axis, Hikvision, Huawei
Many of the world's largest manufacturers, including Axis, Hikvision, and Huawei worked on the "UniMatrix" initiative aiming to create an open-source reference for cloud-native analytics applications but was tabled in 2021 due to manufacturers building their own platforms.
Based on IPVM's research and an interview with the Founder of a company developing Axis ACAP analytics, Daniel Falk, inside, we examine the UniMatrix history, governing board, and meetings, including the initiative's mission, achievements, why it did not succeed and what may happen going forward.
