Eptascape, Italgo Form Partnership

  • Aug 14, 2007

Eptascape, a provider of MPEG-7 video analytics technology, and Italgo S.p.A., recently announced a marketing and distribution partnership to bring Eptascape’s products and security solutions to Italy. The partnership will deliver Eptascape’s MPEG-7 intelligent video analytics products and technology through Italgo’s distribution channel, which penetrates government, transportation, public utility and enterprise security markets across Italy.

“Our deep security and industry expertise combined with Eptascape’s advanced MPEG-7 technology and products will dramatically improve security operations for government, transportation, utilities and enterprises across Italy,” said Italgo's Marketing director Amedeo Bellacicco. “We are proud that Italgo is the first to enable European business with MPEG-7 analytics, which creates new categories of detection, protection, and management for the video surveillance industry.”

Italgo will have exclusive rights to sell the Eptascape software and the ADS series of MPEG-7 based products in the Italian market. The ADS-100 and ADS-200 video analysis units enable embedded, plug-and-play, MPEG-7 based video surveillance, with real-time search, analysis and event detection. The Eptascape ADS products can adapt any existing CCTV or IP camera to perform event based surveillance and real-time analytics, affecting a focus away from individuals on to specific aberrant behaviors.

“The world security markets are in serious need of Eptascape’s MPEG-7 solutions. Prevailing technologies in video surveillance cameras only are able to synthesize a scene after the fact; MPEG-7 is a standard finely tuned to accurately view, search, and identify security breaches in surveillance in real time,” said Eptascape Strategic Development manager Davide Tappeiner. “There are literally millions and billions of volumes of recorded video footage that cannot possibly be scanned for pertinent views or security data, or accurately managed by human monitoring. However, Eptascape’s MPEG-7 products provide the mechanism to deal with such daunting quantities, by searching and identifying relevant security events as metadata, effecting real-time event monitoring and reporting at minimal bandwidth, storage volumes and costs. In our partnership with Italgo, Eptascape anticipates the European and Italian markets quickly waking to the new realms of security surveillance MPEG-7 technology introduces.”
