When the Exacq team initially set out to design the exacqVision system, they stumbled upon a brilliant idea–mak
e the system useful to the user! This “idea” is implemented in the use of Groups and Views.
While it may be convenient for the administrator or the security integrator to see cameras organized by the servers they are connected to, users need to get to cameras in the way that makes the most sense to their organization. A security professional may want to have a Group that includes all cameras from the first floor, or all outside cameras, or all cameras from a particular office location (see image at right), etc. He or she does not care which exacqVision server they are connected to as long as they can access them quickly and easily from the client software.

The Exacq eDVR board is the video compression engine behind our exacqVision Network DVR. Designed by Exacq engineers from the ground up, the eDVR allows for 16 video channels to be recorded in real-time (at a full 30 images per second per camera), at up to D1 resolution. All of the compression is done in hardware, enabling the use of low-cost and low heat-generating host processors for more efficient and reliable DVR systems. Multiple eDVR boards can co-exist in the same system, enabling 32, 48, 64, or even 128 cameras recording in real-time in a single system.
The Exacq eDVR is also sold separately on an OEM basis to manufacturers around the world who need this capability for specialty systems they are designing, and we provide a full SDK (Software Developers Kit) for these OEMs to integrate the eDVR into their product. We have customers using the eDVR to power products that range from video analysis and tracking systems to specialty security inspection systems.
We have updated the manual to the eDVR board, which includes the complete software developers documentation. This latest eDVR manual, dated July 2006, is available here.
