Beamr integrates NVIDIA Video Super Resolution technology into existing production and delivery chains and measures the result with subjective viewer testing. Live demonstrations at IBC 2026, RAI Amsterdam, September 11–14
Herzliya, Israel, Aug. 05, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Beamr Imaging Ltd. (NASDAQ:BMR), a leader in video optimization technology and solutions, today announced it is bringing AI upscaling to live sports, broadcast, and streaming with NVIDIA Video Super Resolution combined with Beamr’s Emmy® Award-winning content-adaptive bitrate (CABR) encoding, running inside existing production and delivery chains. The combined workflow turns the HD feeds broadcasters already have into a 4K viewing experience - without the delivery-cost penalty upscaling normally carries. Beamr will demonstrate the technology live at IBC 2026 in Amsterdam, September 11–14, Stand 1.D22 (Hall 1).
Most of the 4K sport content on viewers’ screens was never produced in native 4K. It is shot in HD and upscaled automatically by the television set, every frame, up to 60 times per second - the last device in the chain, with no production quality control as a result. Producing native 4K has remained too expensive for most live content, until now.
The Beamr pipeline powered by NVIDIA moves that decision back into the broadcaster’s hands. NVIDIA Video Super Resolution upscales HD sources inside the production chain, where the process can be controlled and verified; Beamr’s CABR encoding then delivers the result in streams up to 50% smaller than standard encoding - premium picture quality without premium delivery costs. The entire pipeline runs end-to-end on NVIDIA RTX PRO GPUs and can be deployed in the cloud or on-premises.
Verification is central to the collaboration. Beamr VISTA validates output quality through subjective viewer testing, measuring whether audiences actually perceive an improvement. Results vary by source content - which is exactly why Beamr measures rather than promises, and why testing runs on the customer’s own material.
