Edge Video Analytics with NVIDIA Jetson: Processing at the Source, Sending Only What’s Needed
This talk shows how to run video analytics close to source, using NVIDIA Jetson devices. The focus is on handling video locally, extracting only needed inteligance, and sending minimal data to the cloud. The session explains the core building blocks for running models on device, managing updates, and monitoring deployed units through simple cloud services. A live demo will use a test setup that can replay different video scenes to illustrate how the system behaves under varied edge conditions, from input to output.

Second talk - TBD
