mobiDEOS Inc. introduces an all-in-one surveillance solution for mobile and web remote monitoring that cloud- and network-enables any DVR on the market, allowing customers to extend the lifetime of analogue surveillance systems while planting the seeds for a complete cloud and IP transition.

The new hardware and software solution accelerates how enterprises, government agencies and other businesses and organisations transition to IP by transforming any analogue DVR—regardless of make or model—into an open, multiplatform solution for remote monitoring on mobile devices and on the web. UCNE’s transitional, full-featured platform additionally incorporates live video playback, recorded video clips connected to motion detection and alerts, and redundant cloud-based storage.

UCNE—an acronym for Universal Cloud and Network Enabler—also extends beyond the DVR, supporting motion detection, video loss and video blind alerts across CCTV systems—even if the original CCTV system lacks these features.

“UCNE allows our customers to enjoy the convenience of remote viewing on mobile devices from legacy DVRs, even if those DVRs don’t technically support it in their standard feature sets,” said Sri L. Palasamudrum, CEO of mobiDEOS. “UCNE customers are assured their content from any DVR is optimised for live, recorded and alert-based video clips for remote viewing, while opening up new efficiencies and opportunities created by moving to cloud network architectures.”

Importantly, mobiDEOS’ open-systems approach helps customers protect their investments in analogue surveillance equipment through interoperability with UCNE, while eliminating proprietary traps that lock customers into specific systems. Customers further benefit from quick setup, bandwidth optimisation and multiplexing of many streams, allowing for a larger number of concurrent connections and ongoing ease of integration.

UCNE’s multiplatform approach was born out of mobiDEOS’ popular award-winning MobileCamViewer software for mobile remote monitoring. UCNE incorporates many of the key benefits of MobileCamViewer, such as cloud architecture scalability, bandwidth optimisation via intelligent edge processing, and multi-stream support via its efficient multiplexing capabilities. UCNE is available and shipping.
