Exacq Technologies lanza el sistema de gestión de video exacqVision Edge

Exacq Technologies, fabricantes del software de los sistemas de gestión de vídeo exacqVision y servidores NVR utilizados en videovigilancia, ha desarrollado el software VMS exacqVision Edge, que se ejecuta directamente en las cámaras de red.

Exacq Technologies ha anunciado la incorporación de exacqVision Edge a la familia de software de sistema de gestión de vídeo (VMS) exacqVision que se utiliza en la videovigilancia. El software de servidor exacqVision Edge se ejecuta directamente en un dispositivo, como una cámara IP, sin necesidad de un NVR o un servidor independiente.

exacqVision Edge proporciona una gestión de usuario centralizada y el monitoreo de servidor. El software se integra con las aplicaciones Active Directory y LDAP, así como con otras integraciones de terceros, incluyendo control de acceso, POS / ATM, license plate recognition and video analysis. Live and recorded video from the camera are viewed and managed via the multiplatform (Windows / Linux / Mac) freely distributed exacqVision client. The multiplatform also provides virtual matrix switching, multi-layer mapping, and digital PTZ control. Recorded video can be stored on an onboard SD card or on a network drive such as NAS storage, creating distributed fail points for installations that require extreme redundancy.

Dave Underwood, president of Exacq Technologies, has indicated that “exacqVision Edge is unique in the physical security industry. We are capable of providing the same type of VMS functionality on a single IP camera or encoder just as we do with our servers – and it is a fully scalable solution”.

Scalable solution

Edge servers and their cameras are fully scalable with each exacqVision server which is perfect as a standalone distributed solution or as part of a complete installation. exacqVision Edge is an ideal way to add cameras to existing enterprise deployments in areas where adding another server might not be practical – this includes outdoor spaces, restricted access areas, branches, remote or exterior buildings, where only one or two cameras are needed. Many of these Edge devices use processors based on the standard MIPS architecture from MIPS Technologies.

Gideon Intrater, Vice President of Marketing at MIPS Technologies, has stated that “MIPS Technologies is pleased to welcome Exacq to the ecosystem of leading companies offering software that runs on MIPS-based devices. The MIPS architecture provides a scalable and high-performance solution that is ideal for sophisticated applications, such as the new exacqVision Edge VMS software.

Axis camera system

At its launch, the exacqVision Edge software is supported by a range of IP surveillance cameras from Axis Communications that run on the Axis Camera Application Platform (ACAP). Rob Muehlbauer, Axis Communications Business Development Program Manager, ha asegurado: “We have developed our embedded Axis camera application platform so that our partners can take advantage of the additional processing power available in our cameras and encoders to create next-generation intelligent features. The exacqVision Edge software running on ACAP opens new opportunities for IP surveillance where VMS functionality is required, but the environment makes a standalone recording server prohibitive. By leveraging the power of next-generation devices with smart applications, creamos más opciones de propiedad intelectual para los integradores y usuarios finales y continúan marcando el paso de vigilancia analógica a digital”.
