*Now
available with Multi-Cam System V7.0
providing users with more powerful management
tools including advanced surveillance
and search features as well as integration
of point-of-sale(POS) systems!
|
 |
Object
Counting
This feature allows you to count the number
of objects passing through a pre-defined
area by object size, direction of movement
or detection area. Counted results are
stored in the system log for future reference. |
|
Day-Night
Recording Mode
This recording mode allows the use of
different recording modes for the same
area for up to 4 different time periods
within a day. Recording may be set to
either “motion detect” or
“round-the-clock”. |
|
New
Record Log Search Methods:
Object Search: Allows you to specify an
area within the field of view of a camera
and perform a search for any motion that
has occurred within that zone.
Thumbnail Search: One video event is presented
frame by frame in the viewer in order
to easily determine the start of some
action within that whole event log.
Index Search: Search based on certain
criteria – eg “motion detection”
or “alarm generated”.

Point-of-Sale
(POS) Integration
Third-party electronic POS systems may
now be integrated into GV series DVRs
via the GV-Data Capture device - an external
device that transmits POS transaction
data to the DVR. Transaction data is superimposed
on the video of the selected camera. Video
recordings can be searched based on POS
transaction events or keywords. |
|
System
Log
The System Log is a database of major
operational changes. It allows searching
by “Motion and Alarm Events”,
“General System Events”, “User
Login/Logout history”, “Counter
Results” (from Object Counting)
and “POS Results”. Events
can be double clicked to play the associated
video. |
|
Central
Surveillance by Center V2
Center V2 allows up to 20 GV DVRs to be
remotely monitored. Each Center V2 remote
system can display up to 320 channels
of live video can be displayed in pages
of 24 channels per page. Up to 500 Center
V2 systems can be served by one Dispatch
Server, so that Center V2 will support
a video Central Monitoring Station. |
|
New
Webcam Multi-function Remote
More useful functions for management of
multiple servers (DVRs) is provided through
a web-interfaced Webcam application. |
|
Dynamic
DNS Support
A new Dynamic DNS service is offered by
GeoVision to all V6.0 users. This service
provides an easy-to-remember domain to
fast locate your DVR with a changed dynamic
IP address, by constantly updating the
IP address of your DVR to the DNS server.
Domain name registration is done in the
new DDNS application. |
| Other
Key Features |
| |
Each
CCTV camera has its own configuration
Video
quality, alarm notification, mask areas,
motion detection or continuous recording,
motion detection sensitivity, compression
mode (Geo MPEG4, MPEG4 or wavelet), smart
recording, camera name, camera recording
speed and brightness/contrast/hue/saturation
can be set in the software for each camera.
|
| |
Video Resolution
Camera images can be displayed and recorded
in a choice of 640x480, 640x240 or 320x240
pixels. All cameras images must run at
the same resolution although this can
be changed at any time. |
| |
Display
Live video can be displayed
in single camera, full screen format or
in selectable multi-camera formats. Switch
from a multi-screen format to single camera
and back, by a single mouse click on the
selected camera view. |
| |
Motion
Detection
When
motion is detected in a camera field in
an unmasked area, recording commences.
Recordings are made in video clips which
are date and time stamped in a log file.
Log files can be stored locally or remotely
over a network. We have found the motion
detection sensitivity of the software
to be one of the best available.
|
| |
Mask
Function
Areas
of camera fields where motion is to be
ignored can be user defined (masked),
for each camera. Multiple mask areas per
camera are permitted. Areas inside a mask
can be cleared. |
| |
Smart Recording
Smart
recording can be selected by camera. This
enables the full available recording speed
to be allocated only to cameras that are
actually recording at any particular time.
|
| |
Digital
Watermarking
Digital watermarking can be selected for
recordings. Any recorded video exported
from the original hard drive recordings
are thus ensured to be unedited. This
is a particularly important point when
video is to be used as evidence in court.
|
| |
Recording
Playback
The log files of recorded video
clips can be sorted and accessed by year/date/time.
Video recordings can be played back while
current recording is taking place (recording
speeds will slow down). Recordings can
be zoomed in/out and moved around the
viewing area, on playback. Recordings
can be played back at normal speeds, higher
speeds, slower speeds or frame by frame.
Recordings can be played back by individual
camera or all cameras at a time. Switching
from multi-camera to single-camera playback
is as simple as clicking on a particular
camera window while playback is operational.
Additional editing features are provided
for image sharpening, exporting, adjusting
brightness/contrast and printing. Video
clips can be exported as .avi files, playable
in Microsoft media Player or similar.
Individual frames can be exported in many
file formats, including .jpg's. Exported
video clips can have the date, time and
camera name stamped on the video in a
choice of colors. |
| |
Communications
Remote communication is supported by dial-up
server, web-cam server, TCP/IP server
and multicast server. All can be turned
on or off with just one mouse click. Compression
of transmitted images can be set from
remote systems as Geo MPEG4, MPEG4 or
JPEG, independent of recording compression
of the host system. Geo MPEG4 will provide
much faster transmission. New Webcam software
allows up to 16 cameras to be viewed on
one screen from the same or multiple DVRs.
Remote communications with Windows™
CE equipped PDAs now supported with G-View. |
| |
Audio Recording
Up to four channels can be recorded with
any GV800 series capture card or up to
sixteen audio channels with the addition
of the GV-A16 audio capture card (Optional).
Recorded audio can be played back in synch
with single camera video playback. |
| |
Alarm
Notification
A
notification of motion detection and recording
can be immediately sent to a remote telephone,
pager or computer. |
| |
Zoom
in/Zoom out
Zoom any one camera in or out by
mouse clicks or on playback in single
camera or multi-camera playback modes.
Camera views zoomed past the limits of
the viewing window can be moved around
to see any area. |
| |
Storage Capacity
As available disk space runs
out, the system will overwrite the video
clips with the earliest dates. Recording
can be specified for any single hard drive
or for multiple drives. |
