exacqVision IP Camera Integration Partner: Arecont Vision
One of our exacqVision IP camera integration partners is Arecont Vision, a privately-held company based in Altadena, CA. Arecont manufacturers a line of aggressively-priced megapixel IP cameras, from 2 Mpixel to 5 Mpixel, plus a unique 3 Mpixel DayNight camera. A number of our systems integrators in North America and Europe are resellers of Arecont Vision cameras.
Arecont just got a good write-up in the June, 2007, issue of Security Systems News. Sam Pfeifle, editor of SSN, wrote about Arecont:
Arecont Vision, manufacturer of IP megapixel cameras, has announced in past months a slew of agreements with command and control software manufacturers whereby its cameras can be integrated into their operating systems. … Exacq now supports Arecont with all of its exacqVision NVR products.
Why the sudden rush to integrate with Arecont? “They have spectacular image quality,” said Roger Shuman, vice president of marketing at Exacq. Plus, “one of our reps had a potentially significant deal on the table that required Arecont cameras. They were already on our list, so that moved them to the top of the list.”
Steven Sarfati, VP of Sales & Marketing for Arecont, goes on in the article to explain how advances in technology have eliminated the cost barriers of storage and networking bandwidth for megapixel video surveillance systems.
Our exacqVision IP software supports Arecont’s AV1300 1.3 Mpixel camera, the AV2100 2 Mpixel camera, the AV3100 3 Mpixel camera, and the AV3130 3 Mpixel DayNight camera. Support is forthcoming for the AV5100 5 Mpixel camera.
One of the cool features we’ve added for these megapixel cameras is the ability to use the unique digital PTZ in the exacqVision client to pan and zoom these hi-res images in both live and playback modes. In addition, we enable multiple camera views from a single megapixel camera, providing wide views and digital PTZ close shots, all from a single camera, all recorded as if they were separate cameras. In one bank drive-thru installation, a single Arecont megapixel camera provides a wide view, a close-up of the driver view, and a close-up of the license plate view, all independently recorded and searchable.
Congratulations to Arecont for a great write-up.
