VMP Will Announce Building Information Modeling to the Security Market at ISC West 2013

VMP Will Announce Building Information Modeling to the Security Market at ISC West 2013Video Mount Products, a provider of mounting solutions for the A/V, communications, and security industries, is proud to announce that they have teamed with Autodesk to provide building information modeling (BIM) content for many of its most popular products. VMP will debut its BIM program to the security market at ISC West 2013, held in Las Vegas, Nev. from April 10-12 at the Sands Expo and Convention Center, booth 1042.

“BIM technology and acceptance has grown significantly over the past several years,” said Keith Fulmer, president of Video Mount Products. “The addition of BIM content to the AutoDesk Seek repository is not just another tool in the toolbox, but a viable solution supporting the architectural, engineering, integrators, and contracting communities in the security market.”

In addition to being hosted on AutoDesk Seek, the content will also be available for download through InfoComm iQ as well as from Video Mount’s website. More than 30 BIM models are currently available for VMP products, including models for flat panel mounts, equipment racks, projector mounts, and non-penetrating roof mounts.

Traditional building design has been largely reliant upon two-dimensional drawings (i.e., plans, elevations, etc.) whereas building information modeling extends beyond 3D to a virtual, 5D platform by enhancing the three primary spatial dimensions (width, height, and depth) with time as the fourth dimension. Cost is the fifth, making the use of BIM a crucial factor for design, implementation, and sustainability with equal importance placed upon manpower and profitability.

“BIM allows all the necessary elements to be integrated into a project during its initial planning stages and flow through to proposed future development before a hammer or nail are used in the project,” Fulmer continued. “By utilizing VMP's BIM models, all the knowledge necessary to make for a successful end-result via the sharing of electronic data between all parties is at the users’ fingertips. This results in more efficient and cost-effective planning and preemptive problem solving in real-time 5D.”

  • Gaining a Competitive Edge

    Ask most companies about their future technology plans and the answers will most likely include AI. Then ask how they plan to deploy it, and that is where the responses may start to vary. Every company has unique surveillance requirements that are based on market focus, scale, scope, risk tolerance, geographic area and, of course, budget. Those factors all play a role in deciding how to configure a surveillance system, and how to effectively implement technologies like AI. Read Now

  • 6 Ways Security Awareness Training Empowers Human Risk Management

    Organizations are realizing that their greatest vulnerability often comes from within – their own people.

  • The Stage is Set

    The security industry spans the entire globe, with manufacturers, developers and suppliers on every continent (well, almost—sorry, Antarctica). That means when regulations pop up in one area, they often have a ripple effect that impacts the entire supply chain. Recent data privacy regulations like GDPR in Europe and CPRA in California made waves when they first went into effect, forcing businesses to change the way they approach data collection and storage to continue operating in those markets. Even highly specific regulations like the U.S.’s National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) can have international reverberations – and this growing volume of legislation has continued to affect global supply chains in a variety of different ways.
