Verkada Accelerates Physical Artificial Intelligence with NVIDIA

Verkada, an AI-powered physical security and operations provider, has entered a collaboration with technology company NVIDIA to advance the field of physical AI within the built environment.
The partnership entails NVIDIA becoming a new investor in Verkada, following a previous investment from Alphabet’s CapitalG, aiming to “accelerate the development and deployment of physical AI.”
Verkada is focused on transforming how various sectors use operational data into actionable intelligence, enhancing security in places such as schools, hospitals, and retail environments.
The collaboration is expected to enhance Verkada’s intelligent video analytics through advanced AI-powered video search, multimodal embeddings, and vector retrieval facilitated by NVIDIA’s technologies.
Since the partnership, Verkada has reported a 68% improvement in the mean average precision of its AI-powered search for spatial-temporal understanding, offering more accurate and robust search capabilities.
The joint effort aims to produce more capable, context-aware AI to make built environments more resilient and safe.
