Nanolumens has expanded its Aurora video processing platform with new Active Directory integration and a feature designed to reduce operator eye fatigue in mission-critical environments.
The updates add Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) compatibility, allowing Aurora to integrate with Active Directory-based systems. Organizations can now manage user authentication and permissions through existing network security frameworks, enabling centralized credential control across large enterprises and distributed environments such as airports.
The integration allows IT teams to administer access through their established directory infrastructure, streamlining user management while reinforcing system security.
Aurora also introduces Eye Guard, a proprietary algorithm intended to reduce eye fatigue during extended viewing periods. The feature is designed for control room operators and other personnel who monitor displays for long durations in environments such as network operations centers and security operations centers.
“With Active Directory support and Eye Guard, Aurora continues to mature to meet the operational needs of secure and large-scale deployments,” said Brice McPheeters, vice president of product and planning at Nanolumens. “It’s critical that we solve video processing challenges from the user’s perspective. Aurora’s LDAP feature, which is unique in the video processing industry, does just that by removing the single sign-on barriers operators currently experience. These enhancements give organizations greater administrative control and security while better supporting the teams responsible for monitoring and managing critical visual systems.”
Originally introduced in June 2025, Aurora was designed to work exclusively with Nanolumens displays as an integrated video processing solution for environments requiring dependable performance and streamlined system management. The TAA-compliant platform is positioned for enterprise and control room deployments where centralized oversight, secure access and continuous monitoring are priorities.
Aurora’s latest enhancements are aimed at organizations operating complex display networks that require consistent performance, security and administrative control.
