Exclusive Preview of Hot Tech from ISC – Zalud’s Blog got a preview of a security video system that does everything but the dinner dishes. VideoIQ has the world’s first high performance day/night network camera with content aware storage, intelligent networking, analytic detection, and object search built right into the camera. The VideoIQ iCVR (intelligent surveillance camera with video recording) is the first release in VideoIQ’s family of intelligent IP video products to be delivered in 2008. Building advanced video analytics, content aware storage and intelligent networking into high quality security cameras and encoders revolutionizes how IP video surveillance works. VideoIQ has solved the bandwidth and storage challenges of traditional network cameras, while turning video into a powerful security solution for both incident detection and investigation. It sets a new benchmark for scalability, fault tolerance, ease of use and total cost of ownership in network video surveillance.
“Video analytics and IP cameras are experiencing unprecedented growth, yet issues surrounding significant storage and bandwidth requirements stand in the way of these technologies living up to their potential,” said Scott Schnell, president and CEO of VideoIQ. “In response, we are delivering complete, intelligent surveillance systems in cameras and encoders – that detect and warn of threats, store video based on what they see, communicate on the network only when needed, and enable content-based video search. What’s more, we are doing it a price that’s about the same as the ordinary cameras and storage that they are designed to replace. These products represent a value and capability breakthrough in the surveillance industry.”
