NEXCOM Launches In-Vehicle Hybrid Surveillance System

NEXCOM has launched an intelligent in-vehicle security surveillance system, NViS 2140H. The NViS 2140H is a hybrid DVR solution that can be simultaneously connected to both IP and analogue cameras, which greatly increases integration flexibility. The NViS 2140H not only incorporates DVR and NVR capabilities within one hybrid system but it also provides intelligent video analytics.

The NViS 2140H hybrid DVR system is equipped with an Intel Atom D525 Dual Core processor and has a compact design, making it ideal for space-critical in-vehicle applications. Incorporating an all-in-one embedded server board, NViS 2140H provides high quality digital recording on 4-channel D1 resolution, real-time display (NTSC 720x480, PAL 720/576) and supports a wide range of megapixel IP cameras. Equipped with SIM card and mini PCIe socket, NViS 1240H supports 3G network for instant data transfer, Wi-Fi upload, two-way voice communication and storage capacity of up to 1.5T.

The hardware specifications of the NViS 2140H feature three Intel gigabit LAN ports, four RS-232 COM ports, two RS232/422/485 COM ports, four USB2.0, one VGA port, one GPIO port and one audio jack (speaker out). For in-vehicle applications, an optional power ignition PSU, which supports voltages from 9Vdc to 36Vdc, is also available. The switchable power on/off setting ensures NViS 1240H can function even during power ignition or sudden power loss.

The SATA HDD/SSD or front accessible CF card is also available for extended storage capacity. The optional anti-vibration kit increases further increases reliability and offers additional HDD protection.

  • 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.
