ONSSI Announces Acquisition of SeeTec AG

  • Apr 07, 2015

OnSSI announced that it has signed a definitive agreement to acquire SeeTec AG, a privately held German-based company providing VMS solutions to European markets. As one of the first providers of network-based video management applications, SeeTec provides customers with targeted solutions aligned with customer requirements and industry-specific processes. The agreement combines the strengths of OnSSI and SeeTec by leveraging OnSSI’s industry-leading Ocularis VMS platform with SeeTec’s advanced logistics suite of products, delivering an unparalleled solution for end users and channel partners alike.

“This acquisition is important for our growth, diversification and global presence strategies,” said Gadi Piran, OnSSI’s president and CTO. “SeeTec is highly regarded in European markets for its software development, client services and outstanding customer relationships. They will continue to provide these services locally, while working together with OnSSI to expand globally. I could not ask for a better partner than SeeTec to grow and deliver increased value to OnSSI customers.”

The combination of OnSSI’s leading position in many vertical markets and SeeTec’s focus on video-based business and logistics add-on modules will create strong VMS solutions across multiple vertical markets.

“Joining forces with OnSSI gives SeeTec customers a strong long-term and global perspective. SeeTec technology will continue to be a driving force in the industry with additional opportunities and resources,” said Stephan Rasp, CEO of SeeTec AG. “We look forward to bringing both companies together in this effort."

    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.
