Once again we were exhibiting our exacqVision NVR product line at the BICSI Winter Conference, held in January in Orlando. This is the flagship North American event for BICSI’s 24,000 ITS designers, installers and integrators, combining training, RCDD certification, seminars, and a large expo floor.
We were part of the IPVS Magazine booth, along with Axis and Infinova. We’ve had a good association with BICSI. A common theme from BICSI members has been the rise in requests for IP video surveillance, and that side is increasingly being spec’d and installed by the BICSI designers and installers: the same people who spec and install the network and communications infrastructure. Our exacqVision Hybrid systems solution has been particularly popular in this area, as it allows for the leveraging of existing, legacy surveillance equipment with new and future purchases of IP video capability.
Our thanks again to Eric Moe of IPVS Magazine for another very well run booth. Our previous blog posts on BICSI can be found here. A listing of upcoming events where we will be exhibiting is here.

We’re at the BICSI Spring Conference in Dallas, exhibiting the exacqVision IP video surveillance software in the IPVS Magazine booth, along with IP cameras from Axis and Toshiba.
The shift to IP-based video surveillance is certainly in evidence here. BICSI members are primarily data network infrastructure and design integrators and architects. Most everyone we spoke with indicated that in the last year they have begun specifying and installing video surveillance in addition to the data communications networking.
A key point of interest in the exacqVision system in the IPVS booth was the fact that we were running both the exacqVision server (collection and recording point for all of the IP cameras) as well as the exacqVision client (video management software user interface) on a low-power laptop computer. exacqVision IP software does not require high-end servers to run routine IP camera video surveillance systems. In addition, complete exacqVision hybrid systems can seamlessly merge full framerate, full resolution analog video with IP video, again without requiring high-end servers. That, combined with the low price point per video camera with exacqVision software, generated a great deal of interest from the BICSI members.
Our thanks to Eric and Brian at IPVS Magazine for organizing the booth, and to Lee Muratori of Toshiba and Larry Newman of Axis for their support and assistance in the booth.

We are pleased to announce that we have joined BICSI as a Corporate Member.
BICSI is a professional association supporting the information transport systems (ITS) industry with information, education and knowledge assessment for individuals and companies. BICSI serves more than 24,000 ITS professionals, including designers, installers and technicians. These individuals provide the fundamental infrastructure for telecommunications, audio/video, life safety and automation systems.
IP video surveillance is rapidly supplanting traditional analog-based methods, and we look forward to working with BICSI installers, integrators and RCDDs with our exacqVision IP video surveillance software and systems.
We’ll be exhibiting at the upcoming BICSI Spring Conference in Dallas, April 15-18, 2007.
