Arecont Vision Joins Intransa, OnSSI For High-Definition IP Road Show Series

Arecont Vision, provider of IP-based megapixel camera technology, is joining forces with other IP video suppliers to present a series of high-definition IP road shows in six cities in the United States and Canada.

Half-day, hands-on sessions will highlight the effortless integration of video surveillance solutions that combine the advantages of megapixel video resolution with the system flexibility, scalability and functionality of networked systems based on IP.

“Our High Def, Zero Guesswork road show is a great opportunity for end-users and integrators to experience first-hand how three leading industry technology platforms work together,” said Jason Schimpf, partner relations manager with Arecont Vision. “Our concise half-day event will combine hands-on sessions and open discussions with an opportunity to see product line demonstrations.”

Working with Arecont Vision to deliver the road show presentations are Intransa, a supplier of server and storage solutions; and OnSSI, a provider of recording and management software. The sessions will be hosted by Anixter, a leading global distributor of security, communications and electrical products.

“We are pleased to participate and demonstrate how our physical security optimized server and storage appliances in the Intransa VideoAppliance family integrate leading video management software and megapixel cameras, providing a superior, more reliable and more affordable overall solution,” said Bob Gitre, senior director of channel development with Intransa. “The emphasis will be on how these technologies can be easily integrated for the benefit of better customer solutions, and it's a great opportunity to meet with the manufacturers and see the complete solution in actual use.”

“Networked IP video systems are increasing the usefulness and transforming the functionality of physical security,” said Yitzhak Zahavy, partner marketing manager with OnSSI. “Multiple technologies are contributing to a complete overhaul in system design, and our road shows will be a great opportunity to show how easily these technologies can be incorporated into a unified IP-based security system.”

The road show kicks off on August 26 with shows in both Denver and Dulles, Va. / Washington, D.C. The following four stops on the map include Edmonton, AB, Toronto, ON, Orange County, Calif. and Detroit. For dates and more information, please visit http://www.arecontvision.com.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come.

  • From Surveillance to Intelligence

    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.
