The new products, DS-4000HCI-VSP and DS-4000HCI-VSS, should provide the company’s H.264 PCI encoder boards with integrated PC video server software to create a complete ‘out of the box’ video security monitoring system.
Kane’s Video Server Package (DS-4000HCI-VSP) bundles the DS-4000HCI H.264 PCI encoders with the new Video Server Software (DS-4000HCI-VSS), which includes PC-DVR function, flexible event management and video over HTTP.
Featuring powerful, hardware-based H.264 video encoding, the Vision-Eye Video Server Package uses OggVorbis audio, which its developers say results in smaller file sizes, lower network bandwidth usage and better quality footage than MPEG4.
The PC-DVR software includes control of hard disk consumption and storage across up to eight separate hard disk partitions or network drives. Users can choose to stop recording or automatically overwrite the oldest stored footage when a disk becomes full or reaches a pre-determined volume.
With fully-configurable motion detection recording over multiple zones, the software can record at up to 4mb/sec with adjustable sensitivity and day/night motion compensation.
Kane say that using the software, a camera can be configured to record at one rate, stream across a network at another, and provide JPEG images simultaneously. The flexible event-management system should allow users to configure any number of actions to take place whenever a pre-determined event occurs, such as sending an e-mail containing JPEG snapshots or video/audio footage, play sounds or music files, or run programs whenever a given event occurs.
Integrated biometric support allows logging on to the server using fingerprint authentication, with USB fingerprint devices from Digent and Suprema currently supported.
