VideoIQ and IPVision Software Announce 4G Video Surveillance Solution

BEDFORD, Mass., Feb. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- VideoIQ, the leader in video surveillance innovation, today announced that they have partnered with IPVision Software to develop a joint cellular 4G solution.  The partnership allows joint customers to access live and recorded video across leading 4G networks.

The joint VideoIQ and IPVision Software solution includes VideoIQ's award winning  iCVR line of high definition and D1 cameras and encoders with up to half a terabyte of full onboard NVR storage for months worth of recording and IPVision Software's Virtual Video Recorder™ (VVR™).  By taking advantage of VideoIQ's onboard storage, video is indexed and stored directly on the cameras and encoders, eliminating the need for expensive centralized storage and the need to backhaul video for recording.  IPVision Software's VVR provides immediate access to live and recorded video from any camera on-demand and when real-time alerts are received – providing customers with access any time and from any location.  Finally, with 4G network access, customers can now rapidly deploy a comprehensive surveillance solution without having to install an on-site wired or wireless network, dramatically reducing costs and installation time.

VideoIQ iCVR-HD high definition cameras, iCVR dome cameras, iCVR encoders and iCVR traditional box cameras each include up to half a terabyte of f intelligent, onboard NVR storage for months' worth of recording.  With full onboard NVR storage, VideoIQ iCVR cameras and encoders eliminate the need to back-haul video to centralized storage – reducing bandwidth consumption by more than 90 percent compared to traditional surveillance systems and the external servers to store the video.  And with VideoIQ's award winning iCVR-HD high definition camera, customers can record and retrieve full 1080p/30 frame per second video without being constrained by network capacity.  

"With VideoIQ's category leading onboard storage, our joint customers can install a proven, intelligent surveillance solution even more rapidly than ever before," said Mark Felberg, founder and CEO of IPVision Software. "And with access to leading 4G networks, customers can now deploy with virtually no on-site infrastructure and access their surveillance system whenever and wherever they are."

The IPVision Software Virtual Video Recorder is an easy to deploy and use video management platform that delivers camera and storage scalability while significantly reducing initial and ongoing system costs.  These benefits are achieved by leveraging an open, but inherently different architecture from the 50 year old CCTV technology used by DVR and NVR products.  IPVision Software's VVR can save customers from 25 percent to 66 percent.  The VVR is a complete software-only video management solution that centrally configures and manages third party cameras and encoders, video recordings, event messages and storage devices.

"Through our partnership with IPVision Software, we are continuing to reduce system costs for our joint customers by eliminating system infrastructure while expanding deployment flexibility," said Scott Schnell, president and CEO of VideoIQ. "With superior network speed and coverage, customers can deploy virtually anywhere over a 4G network – whether it's a temporary site or permanent installation."
