Professional software plug-in for intelligent security applications |
The VisioWave Motion Sensor is an image processing plug-in, which reduces the video surveillance operating costs by automatically detecting activity in a scene.
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 VisioWave Motion Sensor is a highly effective image processing plug-in which automatically detects activity in an arbitrary number of "Regions of Interest " (ROI). Moreover, the VisioWave Motion Sensor can repeatedly update the image background, which makes it robust against gradual luminosity changes like passing clouds, etc.
The VisioWave Motion Sensor enhances the intelligence of your security system and integrates itself seamlessly into the VisioWave Video Solutions architecture.

Video compression technology |
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.
In such a professional video environment, adding image processing applications can be done with ease. But the real power of the 3D-Wavelet compression technology becomes apparent when powerful video plug-ins are necessary, so that no compromises on quality or performance requirements need to be made.

Video plug-in architecture |
A digital, networked video surveillance system offers various advantages. One of them is the possibility to add intelligence directly behind the camera.
VisioWave's open video plug-In architecture empowers third parties to completely incorporate their video processing applications within a digital, networked video system of the next generation. The full integration of these applications enables the surveillance system to literally "understand" the scene and to only set off an alarm when required conditions are met. The system thus becomes intelligent.
The full plug-in integration allows common configuration, management and easy interaction with other key features of the system like pre/post alarms, sirens, etc. An overview of all available image processing plug-ins, which are compatible with the VisioWave solutions, can be found on our homepage.
