OzVision Collaborates with Major Security Manufacturer to Provide
Technology for Video Verification Module
Opens up New Video Monitoring
Service Possibilities
OzVision, the leading developer of remote video compression technology
for the security, cellular telecommunications and data communications
industries, announced that it has collaborated with Honeywell to
provide the technology for its new event-driven video verification
module.
Honeywell's V4000 Remote Video System is an OzVision Compatible,
“plug-and-play” module that integrates seamlessly with
its VISTA Series alarm panels. The V4000 works like a digital dialer
in an alarm panel by dialing in to the central station and transmitting
pre and post video clips of a triggered event over standard telephone
and cellular lines. By adding the V4000 module, security dealers
can now increase recurring revenue by offering their customers new
video monitoring services for security and business management at
OzVision Compatible central stations. These services include visual
verification, open/close video reports, scheduled video tours and
video e-mail notification on events.
“The V4000 is revolutionizing remote video. Honeywell security
dealers can go back to their existing customers or offer new customers
a video solution for their VISTA panels that is cost-effective and
easy to install,” said Ed Mallen, president and CEO of OzVision.
“We expect video services to become more widespread this year.”
OzVision has integrated its solution with the major automation
software companies including MAS, Bold, Dice and SIMS. These integrated
solutions allow central stations to become OzVision Compatible and
offer video monitoring services.
Video clips from the V4000 are digitized and compressed using OzVision's
patented video compression technology to create files that are much
smaller than conventional ones and which maintain a high level of
video quality regardless of the amount of motion captured.
OzVision Compatible has become a standard for video monitoring
services in central stations. Receiving pre- and post-alarm video
clips simultaneously with the alarm signal enables the central station
dispatchers to prioritize and verify alarms before acting on them
– an ideal solution to the false alarm problem and no-response
policies.
Honeywell plans to introduce the V4000 at the 2005 ISC East show
in New York.
