License Plate Recognition

In order to deliver greater capabilities in License Plate Recognition, VIVOTEK has cooperated with LPR software developed by global partners to capture license plate images for LPR applications. Various options of VIVOTEK LPC (License Plate Capture) cameras provide user the optimal and most suitable camera for their LPR or traffic monitoring purposes in access control, red light enforcement, surveillance and security, traffic monitoring, tolling system and free-flow applications.

VIVOTEK’s LPC camera delivers clear license plate images for reliable recognition, in both the highest levels of glare and in the darkest hours of the night. In addition, VIVOTEK’s LPC cameras also offer some value-added features like RBF (Remote Back Focus), DIS (Digital Image Stabilization), Headlight filter, and optional external or embedded IR illuminators. This cooperation of VIVOTEK’s LPC cameras and LPR/ANPR software solution partners enhances traffic monitoring management and strengthens enforcement applications.

VIVOTEK, a Leading Provider of H.265

A pioneer in the use of H.265 technology for surveillance, VIVOTEK is proud to launch the new H.265 network camera series, available in 2-Megapixel to 12-Megapixel models and in a range of form factors to suit any application. Employing H.265 technology enables these cameras to provide higher and more efficient image compression rates than previous H.264 systems while maintaining the high image quality. Additionally, VIVOTEK’s NVRs (network video recorders) and professional VMS (video management software), VAST/VAST 2, provide complete H.265 solutions for professional surveillance operations.

In addition to the deployment of H.265 hardware, VIVOTEK also releases the sophisticated Smart Stream II & Smart Stream III, the new generation of video compression technologies. VIVOTEK’s Smart Stream is a state-of-the-art video encoder enhancement that is fully compatible with both H.264 and H.265 standards. Through a collection of algorithms that analyze the video stream in real time, details of regions of interest and specific movements are prioritized and preserved with fine-tuned video settings. Optimizing video surveillance, VIVOTEK Smart Stream can significantly lower bandwidth and storage requirements without sacrificing visual quality. In some cases, it can reduce storage usage by up to 80%. As a world leader in video compression, VIVOTEK constantly innovates new technologies to render encoding more efficient and provide and ever smarter Smart Stream.

Cloud-based Video Surveillance Solution

Cloud-based solutions have surged in popularity and there are many reasons to consider a cloud-based surveillance solution, especially in small-and-medium sized businesses (SMB). To meet these evolving requirements, VIVOTEK developed VADP (VIVOTEK Application Development Platform). VADP is an open platform that enables third party partners to upload applications with cloud service into the camera, thus delivering additional added value and flexibility.

As retailers and small businesses look to implement video surveillance systems to deter theft and reduce liability, new solutions can now provide them with significant advantages over legacy DVR systems. Stratocast™ is a hassle-free approach to business security, allowing you to monitor HD video that is safely stored in the cloud.
