IndigoVision launches new IP fixed domes to expand its 11000 range of HD cameras

Thu, 19 Apr 2012 08:00:00 GMT

IndigoVision, a leading manufacturer of IP Video Security Solutions, boosts its top end 11000 range of High Definition cameras with the launch of new IP fixed domes recently.

High Definition cameras are ideal in situations where the clarity of images captured is vital. In casinos, for example, it is essential that every detail of action on the gaming tables can be seen at all times. Crystal-sharp images, even in zoomed images, allow management to investigate customer complaints and to identify and prosecute incidents of fraud and cheating.

The 11000 Fixed Dome provides great image quality under any lighting condition and boasts full duplex, synchronised audio. The camera will be offered in three versions – Internal, Vandal Resistant and Environmental Vandal Resistant (capable of operating at extreme temperatures), each available with standard or telephoto lenses.

Alex Swanson, IndigoVision Head of Engineering, commented: “We are pleased to...

IndigoVision’s SMS4TM management software introduces alarm display options

Thu, 05 Apr 2012 08:00:00 GMT

The latest version of SMS4TM, IndigoVision’s suite of management software, introduces alarm display options that make it easier than ever for users to respond effectively to alarms. Operators choose exactly where an alarm will be shown on their SMS4TM Control Center interface, and each alarm is clearly identified when it is displayed.

While no alarm has been activated, the operator can view any live camera feeds in any display pane. When an alarm comes in, however, the allocated pane will switch to the associated camera view with a distinct ‘alarm’ identification – so that the user knows exactly where to look. The pane will return to displaying the previous camera as soon as the alarm is cleared. The operator can continue to monitor their chosen cameras in the other panes, allowing site-wide monitoring to continue throughout an alarm.

This powerful feature puts the user in complete control of what they view and where they view it....

IndigoVision introduces situation management software, SMS4 release 4 to safeguard evidence

Tue, 14 Feb 2012 08:00:00 GMT

SMS4 release 4, launched recently, adds system integrity assurance, a continuous assessment of the health of the system to ensure every part is operating correctly. This safeguards the evidential chain and brings peace of mind that when a situational response is called for the system is ready and capable.

Operators are now alerted the instant there is a problem, whether camera, storage or network-related, letting them see what is wrong and where. Automatic escalation ensures that no integrity alert is missed, passing messages further up the chain to ensure they are resolved. Operators are driven to organise immediate repair and close unmonitored areas as appropriate. As examples, a certain percentage of cameras in casinos must be operational for gaming to occur and diamond processing and cash counting demand continuous recording to prevent fraud, and operations must be halted if system integrity is breached.

Mr. Chad Wright, Group General Manager of Naskam Security,...

IndigoVision SMS4 introduces zone escalation

Wed, 04 Jan 2012 08:00:00 GMT

IndigoVision, leading manufacturer of security management systems, has introduced escalation of alert based on proximity to the zone of an event.

For example, when an intruder breaches a perimeter that automatically escalates the alert into neighbouring zones. As the target proceeds through the facility the system is pre-armed to watch for them.

This powerful feature gives operatives an overview of a developing situation through the ‘ripple' of zone escalation across a site. Armed buffer zones are visualised on the mapping interface, giving a clear picture of the developing threat. This extremely intuitive way of monitoring unfolding situations both arms the system so that it responds in the optimal way, and keeps personnel informed as to the progression of an intrusion.

IndigoVision CEO Oliver Vellacott commented: "This gives operators the best possible understanding of what's happening right now - and what's likely to happen next. The software...
