Motorola Solutions completed its acquisition of Salt Lake City‑based Blue Eye on November 19, 2025, adding a high‑margin recurring revenue stream to its video‑intelligence portfolio.
Blue Eye’s platform delivers real‑time threat detection, live voice talk‑downs, and verified alerts, enabling a fully integrated security workflow. By combining Blue Eye’s AI analytics with Motorola’s video, command‑center, and communications capabilities, the company will offer a comprehensive end‑to‑end solution that accelerates law‑enforcement response and reduces the need for costly system replacements.
The deal supports Motorola’s broader strategy to expand its Mission Critical Networks ecosystem beyond traditional land‑mobile radio and to shift toward subscription‑based services. Blue Eye’s camera‑agnostic platform allows customers to integrate advanced AI monitoring into existing video management systems, broadening Motorola’s reach across retail, manufacturing, critical infrastructure, and commercial real estate.
Motorola plans to embed its Visual Alerts AI detections into Blue Eye’s platform and feed them into the Inform incident‑management system for automated response orchestration. The company will also leverage its global channel partner network to accelerate Blue Eye’s market penetration.
The acquisition reflects a wider industry trend toward AI‑enabled security solutions and the integration of video analytics into comprehensive platforms. While the financial terms of the deal were not disclosed, the transaction is expected to generate high‑margin recurring revenue and strengthen Motorola’s position in the growing AI‑enabled security market.
"Security professionals know that the challenge isn’t solely identifying the threat; it’s about moving from detection to action in a matter of seconds," said Mahesh Saptharishi, Executive Vice President and Chief Technology Officer at Motorola Solutions. "The acquisition of Blue Eye is a key component of our strategic focus to provide a single, tightly integrated workflow that seamlessly connects threat detection, verification and response."
Steve Jackson, CEO of Blue Eye, added, "Joining Motorola Solutions accelerates our mission to deliver proactive, real‑time security and business optimization. Motorola’s global scale and deep AI expertise will help expand our reach, advance our solutions and deepen our impact on enterprise security."
