NVIDIA Blueprint for Video Search and Summarization (VSS)

The NVIDIA Blueprint for Video Search and Summarization (VSS) provides a suite of reference architectures for building vision agents and AI-powered video analytics applications. These reference architectures include accelerated vision-based microservices, VLMs, and LLMs which can be used in your existing applications, as standalone microservices, or as part of a larger vision agent built using the blueprint.

Core Documentation

The VSS Core Documentation provides comprehensive technical guidance for deploying, configuring, and extending the VSS platform. It covers the complete system architecture, including real-time vision microservices for object detection, VLM-based analytics, and video embedding generation; downstream analytics for behavior analysis and alert verification; and agentic workflows for video search, summarization, and question-answering.

VSS Blueprints

VSS provides industry-specific blueprints that demonstrate end-to-end reference architectures for key verticals. Each blueprint extends the core VSS platform with specialized workflows, configurations, and domain-specific features to accelerate development and deployment for targeted use cases:

• Warehouse Operations Blueprint: Warehouse Operations Blueprint

• Smart City Blueprint: Smart City Blueprint

• Public Safety Blueprint: Public Safety Blueprint
