Beamr will demonstrate its AV solution at IAA Mobility 2025, in Munich, Germany, from September 9-12

 Herzliya, Israel, Aug. 27, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beamr Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ: BMR), a leader in video optimization technology and solutions, today announced that its video compression solution for autonomous vehicles (AV) has achieved 23% - 50% improvements over existing machine learning (ML) workflows. The NVIDIA AV Infrastructure team validated Beamr’s technology through rigorous testing, demonstrating it preserves the critical visual cues essential for autonomous driving models.

Beamr will demonstrate its GPU-accelerated video compression solution for AV at IAA Mobility 2025 in Munich, Germany, from September 9-12 at booth A1.B31. To schedule a one-on-one meeting with Beamr’s video data experts, please use the link.

AV companies managing 100 to 500 petabytes or more of video data face-mounting infrastructure challenges. Compression is essential for managing these massive datasets, yet even minor compression inefficiencies can translate into substantial infrastructure costs and slow development cycles across the complex "data factory" - the infrastructure and ML pipelines from in-vehicle data collection through training, validation, and large-scale deployment. Beamr's technology directly addresses this by offering operational efficiency across the “data factory” while maintaining model-safety.

In testing, Beamr’s Content-Adaptive Bitrate (CABR) technology, built on NVIDIA accelerated compute, delivered a 23% compression improvement over the current working point using the same video codec. When modernizing to newer codecs (HEVC or AV1), the solution achieved a 40%- 50% reduction in bitrate - all while preserving model accuracy.

“Our collaboration with NVIDIA underscores the critical need for smart video compression in the AV industry,” said Sharon Carmel, Beamr CEO. “We’re proud to provide a solution that not only significantly reduces operational costs at scale but also guarantees the fidelity essential for reliable AV models and enables efficient operations at scale.”
