Honeywell's Newest Video-Management Technology Simplifies Security for Diverse Customers
Monday, 27 July 2009 15:27
For the Trenton Housing Authority, MAXPRO VMS is a critical component to a new, centralized system that manages security for nine housing properties spread across the city. The organization uses a wireless network to transmit CCTV, access and other data to a command and control center, where the data is displayed through a MAXPRO VMS interface. The solution also allows THA operators to integrate all existing and future camera systems in a single display. Additionally, multiple operators can share incidents with each other using a simple drag-and-drop functionality. This approach increases operator productivity and reduces investigation time.
“Crime has been cut down, unauthorized use of certain areas has gone away, the opportunity for illegal activity has been greatly reduced, the community feels safer, and from a management standpoint, it’s easy,” said Michael Vertolli, CEO of ComTec Systems, which designed the THA’s overall security solution.
Meanwhile, at DSU, the technology fits into the school’s overarching goal of streamlining security operations by allowing operators to manage nearly 20 digital video recorders from a single location. Operators create customized views that include feeds from cameras at multiple locations to better protect the 3,500 students who attend the school each year. Additionally, DSU has integrated the system with Honeywell’s Pro-Watch® security management platform to provide campus police a single interface that automatically ties access control events with relevant video.
“In general, MAXPRO VMS is a lot simpler to use than anything we’ve tried before,” said James Overton, DSU’s chief of police. “The integration makes all processes easier since we’re not jumping from software system to software system.”
Likewise, about 12 miles away from DSU, MAXPRO VMS will combine with Pro-Watch to centralize video feeds and intrusion detection technology at Smyrna High School, where the Smyrna School District is currently adding 200,000 sq. ft. to the existing 280,000 sq. ft.-campus. The system, which will be installed by integrator Advantech, will comprise a series of Honeywell’s Fusion and Rapid Eye™ digital video recorders, as well as the company’s VISTA intrusion panels.
“The security industry as a whole is moving towards a unified approach to video, access control and intrusion using a single piece of software,” said Eric Schaeffer, Advantech president. “MAXPRO VMS is taking us in that direction.”
