Oncam announced a forthcoming end-to-end, direct-to-cloud video platform designed to simplify deployment, empower integrators, and redefine enterprise surveillance. The launch marks a pivotal moment for the company as it extends its legacy of intelligent imaging into a fully connected, cloud-first ecosystem.
Built by Oncam’s UK and US engineering teams, the platform combines AI-enabled cameras, intelligent IoT devices, and integrated cloud video management software to deliver higher performance with lower complexity. The goal: remove barriers to cloud adoption while retaining the openness and interoperability that have long defined Oncam’s philosophy.
“This marks an exciting new chapter for Oncam,” said Scott Brothers, Chief Operating Officer. “We’re combining two decades of imaging innovation with a modern approach to AI, cloud, and connectivity, always with our channel partners in mind. Our channel-first strategy remains central as we invite select integrators to join as Founding Partners and help shape what’s next for the industry.”
The Technology Behind Smarter, Safer, Simpler Surveillance
At the core of the roadmap is Oncam Core, a unified web and mobile platform delivering real-time visibility and actionable insights across the surveillance ecosystem. Built on open standards and fully ONVIF-compliant, it integrates seamlessly with third-party cameras, while Oncam’s edge-optimized devices unlock the full potential of its cloud-native architecture.
The next-generation camera range — including bullet, dome, turret, and panoramic form factors — is designed for plug-and-play direct-to-cloud deployment. Fully NDAA and TAA compliant, the line features dual SD slots for edge resilience, PoE and USB-C power options, integrated Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, and on-device AI acceleration for edge analytics.
Powering Innovation Through Partnerships
To support this next phase, Oncam is collaborating with leading technology providers to strengthen its platform foundation.
Qualcomm Dragonwing™ processors enable advanced AI capabilities such as behavior analysis, facial recognition, and anomaly detection — all processed at the edge to minimize bandwidth demand.
“By combining Qualcomm Dragonwing processors with Oncam’s imaging expertise, we’re unlocking a new generation of smart cameras capable of advanced analytics and real-time insights at the edge,” said Sebastiano Di Filippo, Senior Director, Business Development, Qualcomm Europe, Inc.
Sandisk® edge storage brings high-endurance local recording, removing the need for traditional NVR infrastructure.
“Our collaboration with Oncam demonstrates how high-endurance edge storage can transform surveillance, making intelligent video systems more reliable, cost-efficient, and scalable,” said Russell Ruben, Director, Technical Segment Marketing, Sandisk.
The platform’s cloud backbone, hosted on Amazon Web Services (AWS), ensures enterprise-grade security, reliability, and scalability.
“We’re designing for resilience at every layer, from intelligent devices at the edge to a secure, scalable cloud backbone,” said Jon Marsh, Chief Technology Officer at Oncam. “That combination will give integrators and enterprises faster deployment, lower maintenance, and a clear path toward full cloud adoption.”
Ongoing Commitment to Partners
As Oncam transitions toward its direct-to-cloud future, it continues to honor existing partnerships and integrations. Current product lines and support programs remain active, ensuring that the brand’s loyal partners benefit from stability and forward compatibility as the roadmap evolves.
Oncam builds intelligent video solutions that help organizations see clearly, act quickly, and scale confidently. With engineering and product teams in the UK and US, Oncam designs hardware, software, and cloud technologies centered on simplicity, openness, and long-term reliability for modern enterprises and their channel partners.
