Axis unveils 3 new video encoder products.Byline: Dubai(Category: Media & Promotion ) (Image: axis.gif ) Axis Communications Axis Communications AB (XSSE:AXIS) is a manufacturer of IT equipment, mostly known for its print servers and network cameras. According to its latest annual report, it has sold over 500.000 network cameras, thus claiming to be the world leader in that market. , a leader in the network video market, has introduced three new video encoder products that support the latest and highly efficient video compression Encoding digital video to take up less storage space and transmission bandwidth. See video codec and data compression. video compression - Compression of sequences of images. format, H.264. The products enable analog cameras (1) An analog video camera such as a VHS camcorder. See analog video and VHS. (2) A film-based still or movie camera. See film camera. to be integrated into a more efficient and powerful IP-based video surveillance system. "The new and upcoming Axis products are based on a high-performance video encoder platform that has unparalleled 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 capabilities," stated Gilles Ortega, regional manager Axis Communications, Mena. "It enables the products to deliver superb image quality with higher resolutions, frame rates and multiple streaming capabilities, and with much lower bandwidth and storage requirements using the H.264 compression standard.' 'In addition, there is increased capacity for running intelligent video applications that help users effectively manage large-scale video surveillance systems," he added. The three products consist of the standalone Axis Q7401 Video Encoder for integrating one analog camera; Axis Q7406 Video Encoder Blade, which supports six analog channels In communications, a channel that carries voice or video in analog form as a varying range of electrical frequencies. Contrast with digital channel. ; and Axis Q7900 Rack, which is one of the industry's highest-density rack solutions with support for up to 84 analog cameras. The video encoders, which support all types of analog video The original video recording method that stores continuous waves of red, green and blue intensities. In analog video, the number of rows is fixed. There are no real columns, and the maximum detail is determined by the frequency response of the analog system. cameras, convert analog signals An analog or analogue signal is any time continuous signal where some time varying feature of the signal is a representation of some other time varying quantity. It differs from a digital signal in that small fluctuations in the signal are meaningful. into digital streams that are then sent over IP networks for viewing and recording on networked computers. The Axis video encoders offer the market's most comprehensive set of network capabilities, optimising the network video solution for security, efficiency and manageability. The products are also supported by the Axis Camera Station video management software, as well as the industry's largest base of application software through Axis' Application Development Partner program.- TradeArabia News Service Copyright 2008 www.tradearabia.com Copyright 2008 Al Hilal Publishing & Marketing Group Provided by Syndigate.info an Albawaba.com company |
