CP Plus, Qualcomm Partner to Bring AI Video Intelligence Systems in India
CP Plus says due to edge AI, the exposure to external networks is low CP Plus announced a partnership with Qualcomm Technologies on Thursday. As part of this collaboration, the two companies will develop a new generation of artificial intelligence (AI)-powered video intelligence solutions for industrial, public infrastructure, homes, and enterprise environments in India. The companies said the partnership combines CP Plus' nationwide presence in the video security market with Qualcomm's edge AI processors and video analytics platform. The goal is to build systems that process video directly on site and generate real time insights and reduce reliance on central servers. CP Plus and Qualcomm Announce India-Focused Partnership In a press release, the two companies highlighted the details of the collaboration as well as the technology behind these video surveillance systems. The AI-enabled systems will be powered by Qualcomm's Dragonwind processors and its Insight platform. As a result, these devices will be able to process certain data on-device and rest of the analytics can be obtained via on-edge systems. For the unaware, an edge device inside a video management system can analyse footage locally rather than sending it to a remote data centre. For end users, this can reduce the time it takes for alerts to trigger, help keep sensitive footage within the premises and lower network dependence. The Qualcomm Insight Platform provides tools for detection, object tracking, and activity recognition. It can also create summaries of long footage and generate alerts when unusual patterns appear. The companies said the system is built to operate in high volume environments such as factories, warehouses and public spaces where constant monitoring is required. CP Plus manufactured security solutions will also include an in-built AI assistant that uses a large language model (LLM). Users can type questions such as what happened in a particular zone during a shift, or ask the system to pull up moments related to a specific worker or event. "The collaboration between Qualcomm and CP Plus represents an important development in integrating advanced AI and edge-processing capabilities within India's security sector. By combining Qualcomm's technology expertise with CP Plus' extensive market presence, this collaboration has the potential to support Indian OEMs and contribute to the broader goals of the India's AI journey," said Abhishek Singh, DG NIC & Additional Secretary-MeitY & CEO-India AI Mission. Some of the use cases of these AI systems include identifying blocked pathways in a public area, checking whether workers are wearing safety equipment, measuring crowd density at a venue, or helping security teams react quickly in emergencies. In retail, stores could analyse movement patterns to optimise layouts. Enterprises could automate routine audits by using AI to identify missing steps or anomalies in daily operations.

CP PLUS and Qualcomm announce AI-enabled video security solutions in India
CP PLUS, India's leading video security brand, and Qualcomm Technologies, a provider of edge computing and AI solutions, have announced a collaboration to introduce AI-enabled video security solutions designed for industrial, institutional, public safety, and enterprise applications in India. Abhishek Singh, DG NIC & Additional Secretary at MeitY and CEO of India AI Mission, highlighted that the collaboration between Qualcomm and CP PLUS represents a significant step in integrating advanced AI and edge-processing into India's security sector. He noted that combining Qualcomm's technological expertise with CP PLUS' market presence could support Indian OEMs and advance the country's broader AI objectives. The collaboration integrates CP PLUS' camera ecosystem and distribution network with Qualcomm Dragonwing processors and the Qualcomm® Insight Platform. The system uses edge boxes in CP PLUS' Video Management System (VMS) to deliver real-time, on-device AI analytics for safety and monitoring use cases across industrial sites, enterprises, public infrastructure, institutions, and homes. The solution allows on-site video processing via edge AI, keeping data on premises to reduce exposure to external networks. This air-gapped architecture provides resilience for industrial and public safety environments. The Qualcomm Insight Platform integrates advanced edge AI with CP PLUS cameras, delivering cloud or air-gapped on-site intelligence that reduces latency and server dependency while providing real-time alerts and notifications. A Generative AI Assistant based on LLM technology enables users to query and interpret complex events using natural language. The platform supports monitoring applications including workforce management, logistics, access control, perimeter security, and facility safety. These capabilities allow organizations to use AI-based detection and real-time analytics to move from passive observation to informed decision-making. The platform supports operational efficiency and business intelligence: AI-driven video search and summarization can identify key events quickly, and generative AI transforms raw footage into context-rich insights to support accurate decisions. Technology Features The platform is designed to deliver reliable insights in India's high-volume, dynamic environments. The AI-enabled video security solution is expected to be commercially available in Q1, 2026. Talking about the collaboration, Mr. Aditya Khemka, Managing Director, CP PLUS, said, AI is redefining the future of security, moving video security from passive recording to intelligent, real-time decision support. As India's leading video security brand, we have a responsibility to guide this transition with solutions that are reliable, scalable and built for the needs of a rapidly evolving market. Our collaboration with Qualcomm Technologies strengthens this commitment by combining CP PLUS's deep industry leadership with cutting-edge on-device AI technology. Together, we are building the next generation of video intelligence designed in India and ready for the world. Speaking on the collaboration, Savi Soin, Sr. Vice President & President, Qualcomm India, said:
