VIVOTEK has integrated two of its latest products with AxxonSoft’s Axxon Next video management software (VMS). This allows Axxon Next users to access and control VIVOTEK’s Panoramic PTZ feature as in place on two VIVOTEK cameras. VIVOTEK has enabled integration of the Axxon Next software with VIVOTEK’s Smart Stream technology for video streaming from its cameras.
Panoramic PTZ draws on a mix of VIVOTEK megapixel fisheye camera SF8172/72V with speed dome SD8363E, allowing users to monitor an area overview from a fisheye model while giving a detailed regional view from a speed dome. The fisheye camera provides 180 degree panoramic view or 360 degree surround view, without blind spots. The makers say that the SD8363E dome provides pan/tilt/zoom movement and captures details.
Axxon Next users can take advantage of the VMS package’s new Tag and Track feature—which allows the labelling and tracking of moving objects, selected manually or detected automatically—using VIVOTEK’s box camera IP8162P for overviews and the speed dome SD8363E for detailed views of the tracked objects. Panoramic PTZ users have an extra VMS option.
VIVOTEK has also completed integration of its Smart Stream on its IP8371E camera with the AxxonSoft VMS. The company says that its Smart Stream reduces bandwidth consumption and storage requirements of video from the IP8371E camera, by using full resolution only for pre-defined areas in the field of view—either regions of interest, or automatically detected moving objects—while using a lower baseline resolution for background areas of no interest for the CCTV user.
VIVOTEK Executive Vice President Steve Ma said: “We’re delighted to build even greater integration of our Panoramic PTZ and Smart Stream technologies with AxxonSoft’s terrific open-platform video management software. Existing customers of both VIVOTEK and AxxonSoft will benefit, and seamless interoperability between our cameras and Axxon Next make for an extremely appealing surveillance solution for potential new customers as well.”
