Breakthrough AI-driven Video & Data Compression for Defense, Aerospace, and Consumer Markets.
Modern defence-grade and 4K/8K sensors generate enormous raw data rates that classical codecs can't handle efficiently. This overwhelms traditional codecs and networks, causing latency, quality drops, and huge storage costs.
H.264/H.265/H.266/AV1 depend on predicting each frame from previous ones. This creates three critical problems:
Sentaya's approach is frame-independent, avoiding this long dependency chain.
When one frame fails, the whole chain suffers.
Classical codecs add tens of milliseconds of delay – acceptable for streaming movies, but not for:
In modern missions, 60–100 ms of latency can mean missed targets, delayed decisions, and reduced survivability.
At very low bitrates, they produce blocky, smeared, artifact-heavy video. Under high motion or vibration, their motion prediction breaks. In darkness, fog, or IR noise, their models fail, losing critical details.
They were designed for clean, controlled consumer video – not for noisy IR sensors on a vibrating drone at 125 fps.
Traditional codecs were optimized for TV broadcasting, Blu-ray and OTT streaming, static or predictable content. But modern systems include:
They must handle multiple sensor streams + AI inference + compression simultaneously – something legacy standards were never designed for.
H.265/AV1/VVC require heavy compute and energy, which is problematic for drones/UAVs, satellites, missiles, remote ISR outposts, and battery-powered edge devices.
Sentaya is designed for low-power, high-efficiency deployment.
More compression, less power.
Modern sensors are evolving exponentially. Classical codecs are not. This gap is now the biggest bottleneck in defence, aerospace, and 8K video systems.
The only cross-platform AI codec delivering breakthrough compression ratios with minimal latency.
