IndigoVision Wins Two Security Excellence Awards

  • Oct 14, 2008

IndigoVision recently won two awards at the 2008 Security Excellence Awards held at London's Park Lane Hilton Hotel on October 9.

IndigoVision won the International Achievement and Security Manufacturer of the Year awards. The awards were judged by a panel of leading industry figures and editors from the UK’s top security publications. Uniquely, however, the winner of the Security Manufacturer of the Year award was chosen by the industry itself from a group of 20 leading security companies, using an online vote.

The International Achievement award recognized IndigoVision’s export success for IP video in the worldwide Casino market. Since entering this market in 2006, IndigoVision has won contracts to supply fully digital IP-CCTV solutions for 25 casinos in seven countries, including a recent project involving nine casinos in Chile. All these have been in full compliance with local gaming boards’ strict regulations and represent a total of more than 8,000 cameras.

IndigoVision was chosen by the industry for Security Manufacturer of the Year because the company demonstrated outstanding service and made a significant contribution to the market during the last year.

"I am delighted with the awards and in particular that they recognize the hard work that all the staff have put into IndigoVision’s recent success," said Oliver Vellacott, IndigoVision's CEO.

IndigoVision has more than 1,000 major CCTV surveillance installations worldwide including two Olympic Games, the 2006 Soccer World Cup, seven major rail networks, two of the world's top five banks and 28 airports.

    Years ago, it would have been significantly more expensive to run an analytic like that — requiring a custom-built solution with burdensome infrastructure demands — but modern edge devices have made it accessible to everyone. It also saves time, which is a critical factor if a missing child is involved. Video compression technology has played a critical role as well. Over the years, significant advancements have been made in video coding standards — including H.263, MPEG formats, and H.264—alongside compression optimization technologies developed by IP video manufacturers to improve efficiency without sacrificing quality. The open-source AV1 codec developed by the Alliance for Open Media—a consortium including Google, Netflix, Microsoft, Amazon and others — is already the preferred decoder for cloud-based applications, and is quickly becoming the standard for video compression of all types.
