3VR Opens Platform for Integration with Other Hardware Partners

  • Sep 11, 2012

3VR recently announced that it is opening up its Video Intelligence Platform for integration with select hardware partners for the first time. This is a first for 3VRʼs Video Intelligence Platform as its Video Management Software (VMS) has only been available for use with its own Network Video Recorders (NVRs) and Hybrid NVRs in the past.

Intransa, the physical security infrastructure and services company, marks the first implementation of 3VRʼs Video Intelligence Platform with a third-party hardware provider. Intransa customers now can augment their existing hardware infrastructure with 3VRʼs VMS suite of forensic search and analytics solutions to solve crimes faster, reap significant business intelligence from their video assets and reduce IT integration headaches.

Todayʼs announcement is consistent with 3VRʼs open platform philosophy. 3VR already has certified partnerships with leading camera manufacturers, data integration partners such as access control and POS systems and analytic developers.

"We wanted to give our customers more choices and flexibility in how they deploy our software," said 3VR CEO Al Shipp. "By opening up our software platform to premium select hardware vendors such as Intransa, we allow 3VR customers to optimize their network security infrastructure while still taking advantage of 3VRʼs powerful forensic search engine, case management, and wide range of video analytics."

3VR has been SELECT certified as an option for Intransaʼs server, storage and appliance platforms. Customers of Intransaʼs video-optimized VideoAppliance, EnterpriseServer and EnterpriseStorage platforms will now be able to leverage 3VRʼs VMS without the need for additional hardware purchases.

"Our certified partnership with 3VR enables us to combine our strengths to create a powerful, sophisticated solution that addresses a wide range of project needs, and ultimately offer greater value to our integrators and end users," said Intransa CEO Bud Broomhead.

3VR offers several built-in and premium applications that allow users to manage and bolster the performance of their video assets (mix and match analog, IP, megapixel and PTZ cameras) across thousands of sites.

  • 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.
