Onvif challenges developers to create T-profile applications for IP video transmission

Open Source Sportligh Challenge is the name of this Onvif technological competition to develop open source applications to improve global safety.

The organization for interoperability and standardization for physical network security products Onvif (Open Network Video Interface Forum) ha presentado Open Source Spotlight Challenge, a call, two months long, to develop open source applications to create IP video transmission solutions that help improve security.

In collaboration with the agency BeMyApp, This Onvif challenge is also accompanied by prizes for those developments that use the protocol to create mobile or open source applications in the proposed challenge., with simple and secure access from any platform.

As Per Björkdahl points out, president of the steering committee of Onvif, “as the need for interoperability grows significantly in other industries, It is more important than ever to seek innovative physical security solutions to guarantee interoperability with the highest levels of efficiency., safety and reliability, and that is why we are looking forward to knowing the new ideas that the developers will offer”.

Specifically, professionals participating in the Open Source Spolight Challenge have to connect to prototype online cameras with new T profile functionality (to develop advanced streaming) from manufacturers such as Axis Communications, Bosch Security, Dahua, Hikvision y Uniview.

Besides, They will have access to tutorial videos to guide them in the development of a mobile or desktop security application using C# on Windows, iOS en Apple, Java on Android or JavaScript that connects to an IP camera.

The innovation, the feasibility of the application, functionality and ease of management and use are the main parameters to select the best development to be presented to this Onvif challenge, who can participate until next time 3 June, day on which the delivery of application development will end and whose winners will be known at the end of said month.
