Professional video surveillance imposes very specific constraints in terms of video compression and transmission.

 

A surveillance system is composed of a high number of encoders for cameras and a usually limited number of decoders for monitors. The bandwidth available can be limited due to the high number of streams to be monitored, occasionally through narrow band connections. Latency must be very low for real-time operation. Key requirements are also comprised of the necessity to be able to display a video stream on different terminals with different resolutions (PDA, PC, monitor, image wall), as well as to be able to switch streams very quickly.

 

VisioWave, leading the 3D-Wavelet compression technology, matches these requirements and offers extreme scalability. The VisioWave solution has approached Video Coding for Video Surveillance in a global manner, by optimizing not only the quality versus the bandwidth, but also the complexity, the delays and the functionalities. This is why VisioWave's one-of-a-kind 3D-Wavelet compression technology is providing unique advantages and performances, which have long been awaited by the market.
