Arecont Vision Starts Commercial Sampling of World's Fastest High-Definition 2-Megapixel Video Surveillance System.Business Editors LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--May 18, 2004 Fully Digital AV2000 Surveillance System Delivers HDTV (High Definition TV) A set of digital television (DTV) standards that offer the highest resolution and sharpest picture. Although some HDTV sets are available in standard (rather square) screen sizes, the overwhelming majority of sets are wide screen, which eliminates Resolution at NTSC (National TV Standards Committee) The committee that developed the television standards for the U.S, which are also used in Canada, Japan, South Korea and several Central and South American countries. Both the committee and the standard are called "NTSC. Price This week, Arecont Vision, the leading developer of high-resolution video surveillance cameras and systems, started commercial sampling of its newest product, the AV2000 video surveillance system, to select system integrators and value added resellers See VAR. (company) value added reseller - (VAR, or "value added retailer") A company which sells something (e.g. computers) made by another company (an OEM) with extra components added (e.g. specialist software). in the US, Germany, Russia, Japan and China. Far exceeding the performance of available-today video surveillance products, the low-cost fully digital AV2000 system delivers HDTV imagery at 24 frames per second across local area networks. Based on the world's fastest 2Mpixel (1600x1200) network cameras, the AV2000 is designed to offer a vastly superior cost-competitive alternative to mainstream NTSC-based video surveillance and industrial monitoring. The AV2000 system is enabled by MegaVideo(TM) technology protected by multiple pending patents. This revolutionary technology leverages dedicated massively-parallel image processing image processing Set of computational techniques for analyzing, enhancing, compressing, and reconstructing images. Its main components are importing, in which an image is captured through scanning or digital photography; analysis and manipulation of the image, accomplished architecture and represents a drastic departure from traditional analog and network camera designs. For the first time it has become possible to introduce to the market multi-megapixel video systems at NTSC price levels. "Arecont Vision's mission is to provide to the security industry innovative surveillance systems that deliver real-time high-definition video This article is about high-definition video technology. For television systems, see High-definition television. For the tape format, see HDV. For compression and prerecorded media, see High-definition pre-recorded media and compression. at the price of low-resolution analog CCTV CCTV abbr. closed-circuit television CCTV closed-circuit television ," said Dr. Michael Kaplinsky, CEO (1) (Chief Executive Officer) The highest individual in command of an organization. Typically the president of the company, the CEO reports to the Chairman of the Board. of Arecont Vision. "Today inexpensive high-definition video surveillance is not available on the market due to technical challenges associated with complete image processing at speeds in excess of 40 Mpixels/s -- well beyond the capabilities of general purpose CPUs and DSPs. Arecont Vision, leveraging its unique expertise in design of massively-parallel image processors, has developed extremely cost-efficient MegaVideo(TM) technology that lies at the heart of its innovative products and enables surveillance systems delivering HDTV resolution video at price points of today's low Today's Low The intra-day low trading price. Notes: In other words, this is the lowest price that a stock traded at during the course of the day. More often than not this is lower than the closing price.

In addition to remote access and digital video archival functionality typical for today's network-based systems, Arecont Vision products offer unique capabilities unattainable with NTSC/VGA cameras. In sharp contrast to low-resolution systems, MegaVideo(TM) technology allows simultaneous delivery of full field of view and high-quality zoomed images at video rates, post-event zooming from archived footage, and instantaneous no-moving-parts pan and tilt required for tracking of fast moving targets.
