Software-Defined Tactical Video Encoder
AV1-based encoding purpose-built for bandwidth-constrained networks. 80–90% less bandwidth than H.264, self-healing streams on lossy RF links, CPU-only — no GPU, no new hardware, no changes to your radios.

A sealed, wearable inline cable with integrated edge compute, running FLEX at the point of transmission. Drops between the video source and the tactical radio — no exposed ports, no added hardware on the operator.
Explore IVPMThe physics don't care who's on the radio. Wherever video has to move over constrained, contested, or remote links — disaster response, wildfire operations, search and rescue, offshore and remote industry, live coverage from austere locations — FLEX delivers full-motion video on the infrastructure already in place. CPU-only software on commodity hardware, validated on commercial links from Starlink to Iridium to LoRa.
