Heard & seen on the floorOpen-System Vendors demo IP interoperability
Exacq Technologies, Firetide, IQinVision, and Pivot3 are showing how standards-based solutions from open-system vendors can be integrated and supported in the field
The power of collaboration. Four open-system vendors are supporting a joint live demonstration of IP technology interoperability at ASIS 2009. Exacq Technologies, Firetide, IQinVision, and Pivot3 are showing how standards-based solutions from open-system vendors can be integrated and supported in the field. End users, specifiers, and resellers see how these open-system vendors are collaborating to speed adoption of the latest technologies to the market.
The live — and impressive — demonstration features wireless distribution, storage, and playback of HD/megapixel video over a wireless network across separate booths on the ASIS show floor. High-resolution video from IQeye megapixel cameras is being streamed from vendor booths over Firetide wireless infrastructure mesh network. The video is subsequently captured and displayed remotely using the exacqVision Video Management System (VMS) running on Pivot3 iSCSI SAN storage with embedded virtual servers. Centrally captured video will then be viewable and searchable from remote computers in each of the partner booths and on smartphones.
The distribution of labor:
- Exacq designs and manufactures the cross-platform exacqVision Video Management System (VMS) software used in IP and hybrid video surveillance systems
- Firetide is a provider of wireless infrastructure mesh networks that enable concurrent video, voice, and data for municipal, public safety, and industrial applications
- IQinVision is a provider of megapixel IP video
- Pivot3 is a provider of storage-centric computing and is a surveillance storage company
