Onvif is an open industry forum for the development of a global standard for the interface of network video products and is committed to the adoption of network video in the security market. It is spearheaded by Axis, Bosch and Sony. The Onvif specification aims to ensure interoperability between network video products regardless of manufacturer.
“We are happy to welcome IndigoVision as a full member of the forum,” said Onvif steering committee member Dieter Joecker.
“Their experience within IP video solutions will be beneficial for the continuous development of the Onvif specification. The increasing number of members shows that there is a great need for an open global standard for the interface of network video products.”
