TRINITY is made possible by the combination of Veracity’s advanced camera code and COLDSTORE Veracity, a leading provider of innovative, intelligent solutions that solve real-world IP video challenges in transmission, storage and display, will be demonstrating the unique benefits of TRINITY™ and its simplified system architecture which records IP video directly from camera to COLDSTORE™, a surveillance storage system, uniquely and specifically designed for video surveillance. The demonstration on booth #5065 at ISC West at The Sands Expo in Las Vegas, 6-8 April 2016 will showcase an increasing number of vendors that allow third-party software applications to be run inside their IP cameras. Examples include models from Samsung Techwin, Axis Communications, Hikvision, AMG Panogenics, ISD, and UDP with many other manufacturers rapidly following suit. Supports Video Analytics Applications These “open platform” cameras are generally aimed at supporting video analytics applications but are, with the right software, capable of much more. Veracity has developed dedicated software for such cameras which writes video, audio and meta-data directly to a hard disk array. This “direct-to-disk” concept completely removes the need for NVR servers resulting in substantial savings on server hardware and NVR software licences while simultaneously reducing system complexity and increasing system resilience. “The front-end client system can be anything from a simple PC playback system to a full-blown, broadly-integrated PSIM operator workstation” says Alastair McLeod, Group CEO of Veracity. “We call this simple system architecture TRINITY™, and it’s an ideal solution for unmonitored or remote access systems”. TRINITY™ is made possible by the combination of Veracity’s advanced camera code and the COLDSTORE™ surveillance storage system, uniquely and specifically designed for video surveillance. The lifetime cost of system ownership is further reduced, thanks to the increased disk reliability of COLDSTORE by a factor of 20, and its very low power consumption at 0.5W per TB. Simplified Video Management System TRINITY™ recordings can be played back by Veracity’s own VIEWPOINT™ Player utility or, more significantly, by any third-party PSIM or VMS front-end system which incorporates the simple TRINITY™ Media SDK. Example PSIMs which are integrated with TRINITY™ include ISM, Meyertech, Visual Management Systems, i-Comply and Synectics. The result is a simplified, serverless, robust, highly scalable and very cost-effective video management system with innovative features such as camera-level fail-over, optional dual-stream or redundant recording, resilience to network interruptions via internal camera recording, and all the existing benefits of the highly successful and award-winning COLDSTORE™ surveillance storage system. Veracity’s storage products will also be demonstrated at the Hanwha Techwin America booth #14079 and at the Digital Watchdog booth #17089. Veracity is Hanwha Techwin America’s Integration Partner of the Year 2015.
ONVIF will host a Profile Q Quick Install Challenge as well as provide an interoperability demonstration on Profile S ONVIF, the leading global standardization initiative for IP-based physical security products, announced recently that it will be an exhibitor at IFSEC International 2015 in London, June 16-18, 2015. On stand D530, ONVIF will host a Quick Install Challenge for its newest profile, Profile Q, and will also provide an interoperability demonstration on Profile S to highlight the functionality of its interoperability specifications for the physical security industry. The Quick Install Challenge For Profile Q “Our Profile Q Quick Install Challenge allows visitors to test for themselves how simple it is to connect Profile Q conformant devices and clients,” said Per Björkdahl, Chairman of ONVIF’s Steering Committee. “With an additional demonstration of Profile S, ONVIF will highlight how interoperability between brands works in everyday applications.” The Quick Install Challenge for Profile Q showcases the easy set-up of the new profile. Attendees themselves set up and connect a Profile Q conformant camera and a Profile Q conformant video management system, with a prize awarded to the participant with the fastest time. 2015 IFSEC International ONVIF Sponsors ONVIF member companies are sponsoring ONVIF’s exhibitor’s booth at IFSEC International, as well as the interoperability demonstrations. The 2015 IFSEC International ONVIF sponsors are: Axis, Bosch, Synectics, Oncam, Meyertech, HIKVISION and Panasonic. Founded in 2008, ONVIF now consists of more than 500 member companies in six continents and more than 4,500 Profile conformant products. With Profile S for streaming video, Profile G for recording and storage, Profile C for physical access control and the Release Candidate for Profile Q for easy installation and advanced security features, ONVIF continues to work with its members to expand the number of IP video integration solutions ONVIF conformant products can provide.
