Professional Video Operating System for digital video surveillance networks |
The VisioWave Video Operating System (VOS) makes rich featured management software and supervision services available to the open VisioWave Networked Video architecture.
VisioWave Security Solutions consist of a comprehensive and integrated range of Digital Video Equipments and a variety of management software. These solutions offer centralized configuration and management tools, high quality and high performance distributed video switching, effective and optimized use of any IP or ATM network, intelligent local or centralized storage features, support for telemetry, image processing and alarm management and high level graphical user interfaces.
The core of this highly networked, open video platform is the VOS. Its role as director is to harmonize a multiplicity of hard- and software applications and to integrate itself into any global security systems. In its role as manager it has to provide all key functions of an intelligent video surveillance system like central configuration, video streaming, networked video recording, integrated image processing, etc. The comprehensive features of the VisioWave VOS combined with the scalability of the VisioWave Digital Video Equipments makes the VisioWave solution the most performing and flexible of its kind.
