Where are we heading? In the first six weeks of 2014 alone, there have been 13 school shootings in K-12 schools and campuses, reinforcing the fact that providing a safe student environment on a school campus is far from easy. These facilities require specialized surveillance features to effectively enhance campus security, something that AVer Information has promised to deliver with help from Video Insight.
AVer Information has announced full camera integration with Video Insight video management software (VMS), which is a powerful, easy-to-use solution that allows organizations to deploy a customized and robust video surveillance system. The integration is expected to complement AVer’s campus-focused IP camera solutions.
"As both organizations focus surveillance technology on campus security, this partnership will greatly enhance schools' ability to protect students, faculty and assets," said Andy Teoh, product manager for AVer Information, Inc. Americas.
With over 20 years of experience in education, AVer understands the unique challenges schools and districts possess with video and IP related technologies. The company’s IP cameras reportedly address these satisfactorily. Not only will they deter theft and violence on the campus and reduce vandalism, but most importantly will provide real-time access to live HD video.
AVer offers a full line of IP68 weather and IK10 vandal rated cameras, which provide high quality video regardless of location, environment, or lighting, while the Video Insight solution supports over 2,500 camera models and integrates seamlessly with the most popular access control systems. Specific features within AVer IP cameras can now be used through Video Insight software.
Also, by immediately recognizing events as and when they occur, these cameras can provide enhanced security both indoors and out. Authorized personnel can have instant access to surveillance, anytime, anywhere, and if needed, users can select specific regions of a video stream to focus. Video Insight's VMS solutions now support all AVer IP Camera features and functions through their own user interface.
Security coverage across so many school buildings and locations is complex and challenging. However, Aver Information (News - Alert)'s campus-focused IP camera solutions will hopefully make this task easier.
