Infinova's IP Camera Training Offers Continuing Education Credit

Infinova of Monmouth Junction, N.J., today announced that the company's new Technical Product Certification training, which constitutes 75 percent hands-on training and 25 percent lecture, will provide BICSI (Building Industry Consulting Service International) members with seven CEC credits and NBFAA (National Burglar & Fire Alarm Association) members with 0.5 CEU credits.

Participants will learn how to configure IP cameras using both browser connections and Infinova's V2240 Video Management Software (powered by Video Insight). Created for integrators and installers that provide system solutions for video security and surveillance using IP-based cameras, the one day, hands-on technical product certification class teaches integrators and dealers how to install and optimize IP surveillance cameras to deliver the best evidence for their customers.

"This 8-hour class spends the great majority of its time doing hands-on exercises because that's how people learn best," emphasized Mark S. Wilson, company vice president, marketing. "Plus, BICSI members can earn half their yearly continuing education credits while NBFAA members can earn approximately 40 percent of their units. By actually working with the products, dealers, integrators and installers will gain an increased understanding of IP technology, realize that IP video isn't hard to understand, obtain confidence in installing and configuring IP video products, and receive verification of their knowledge through certification testing.

"Working with others in the class," Wilson added, "they will be able to leverage new networking opportunities … and have new insights into the functionalities their organizations will need to successfully compete in the future."

The class also includes a demonstration and review of specific products used in the class, such as an IP megapixel, IP fixed minidome, IP dome, and IP pan/tilt/zoom (PTZ) camera plus video management software (VMS).

The first class will be Dec. 3 in Dallas. A listing of the initial 2011 classes plus a class outline is available at www.infinova.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. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • 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.
