Low-Latency Video Streaming
Vision4ce GRIP MINI DVR with built-in IP video server functionality
Drone video streaming solutions are used by broadcasters and drone racers, as well as by companies undertaking industrial inspections of energy facilities and critical infrastructure, to provide real-time or near-real-time video feeds to a remote location.
Low-latency video streaming is also used by governments, military forces, law enforcement and other first responders to provide critical situational awareness for applications such as search and rescue (SAR), ISTAR (intelligence, surveillance, target acquisition, and reconnaissance), disaster response and event security.
Drone video streaming may be utilized with feeds from both electro-optical and thermal cameras. The video data may be transmitted via a number of communication methods, including:
- RF (radio frequency) datalinks
- SATCOM (satellite communication)
- 4G/LTE/5G cellular
Many solutions will allow users to select the resolution and frame rate to stream at, ensuring that a live video stream can be provided in the event of poor network coverage even if it is at lower quality.

Drone Video Transmission
Drone video transmission may be used in conjunction with video management systems that provide fully managed services ensuring that streams reach their intended destinations at any time. These systems allow video to be broadcast not only to the drone pilot but also to command centers, mobile devices such as phones and tablets, and clients and stakeholders located anywhere in the world.
Drone video management systems may provide cloud-based live streaming to a large number of locations simultaneously. They may use automatic link monitoring to ensure that the best possible method of transmission is selected according to network conditions, and may utilize cellular bonding to maximize available bandwidth and provide critical redundancy. They may also provide other features such as AES-256 encryption, picture-in-picture capabilities, and cloud-based storage of video footage.
