Aimetis, the leader in intelligent video surveillance technology, announced today that the company’s acclaimed video software solution AIRA now supports the H264 version of the ATEME VSIP2 encoder.
ATEME, world leader in MPEG-4/H.264 video compression solutions for the video security industry has a full range of complete solutions. Its VSIP2 product is a compact audio/video encoder for transmitting any analog video source over IP networks. AIRA, Aimetis’s advanced open IP-surveillance software product, simultaneously enables digital video recording, intelligent video analysis and also remote access to live and recorded images from any networked computer.
When used together, this solution allows the camera to monitor and recognize any movement from an individual, all operates in a low bit rate environment while providing excellent image quality and a high frame rate. The combination of AIRA with VSIP2 provides an integrated solution able to analyze the behavior of various elements within the monitored environment. For in-camera analytics, Aimetis’s VE250 motion-tracking can also be embedded in the VSIP2 resulting in lower CPU consumption.
Aimetis has chosen ATEME’s IP encoder because of its capacity to transmit data via IP networks including analogue video, and also for its excellence in video compression, which is conveyed by exceptional video quality even in the case of low bandwidth.
"This partnership therefore allows ATEME to add analytics capability to VSIP2, giving security professionals an exceptional and unique offer in providing a cost-effective and powerful solution to their surveillance needs.
