Chinese infrastructure and public sector technology provider Mt Titlis has selected US firm Semtech’s BlueRiver platform to provide ultra-high definition video and audio processing for its smart city control system. Integration of the Semtech BlueRiver platform into Mt Titlis’ smart city operations and control system will allow for capture and replay of high quality, uncompressed 4K60 4:4:4 video within the city operational control system.

According to California-based Semtech, providing high definition video capture, processing and display addresses public safety and order requirements that are paramount for many city and local authority bodies worldwide. It allows smart city command and control systems to maximise information distribution for rapid and accurate response.

For Mt Titlis, Semtech’s BlueRiver technology has provided a fit for its Smart City Integrated Command Centre, supporting 4K/UHD, 1080p Full HD, 1440p WQH, and other customised resolutions.

“Efficient and convenient collaboration is critical to smart city operations and local governing,” said Don Shaver, vice president of marketing of video products for Semtech’s Signal Integrity Products Group. “Semtech’s collaboration with Mt Titlis showcases the unmatched benefits of the BlueRiver AV over IP platform in delivering the best possible audio and video experience available today.”

“Mt Titlis’ products supply centralised monitoring, comprehensive data analysis and unified management, optimising resource allocation and facilitating implementation of key operations in urban areas which is why Semtech’s BlueRiver platform was the optimal choice for integration with our Smart City Integrated Command Centre,” said Ian Zhao, CMO of Mt Titlis. “The BlueRiver platform provided a highly integrated SOC solution for audio and video processing and transmission, which perfectly collected the signal output of the computer peripheral interface and supports the lossless quality transmission and display of Ultra HD video.”
