IDIS, announced that it is integrating a range of its market-leading high definition (HD) cameras with world-class video management software (VMS) from Genetec Inc. (Genetec™).

The development – which builds on an established relationship – brings to market a powerful combination of IDIS network dome cameras, including vandal-resistant and infrared (IR) models, with Genetec™ Security Center, an open-architecture, unified IP-security solution. Security Center seamlessly blends IP access control, video surveillance, and automatic license plate recognition (ALPR) within a single intuitive interface to simplify the management of security operations and situational awareness.

Through this collaboration, IDIS and Genetec™ will make it much easier for organizations to improve safety, security, and protection for their people, property, and assets while benefitting from the multiple commercial and competitive advantages offered by smarter HD surveillance.

IDIS network dome cameras deliver unrivalled HD performance, including outstanding image quality, Full HD (1080p) resolution, a comprehensive range of advanced features, as well as multiple video streams. Thanks to the multiple video streams, this can be configured and used independently for live monitoring, recording, and remote data transmission with preferred resolution, quality, and bit rate.

Models that are being integrated and validated with Security Center will include the IDIS DC-D1223WX, a Full HD vandal-resistant dome camera, and IDIS DC-D1223WHR, a Full HD vandal-resistant IR camera. The cameras also benefit from low power consumption and require little maintenance ensuring the IDIS signature low total cost of ownership.

Security Center integrates three main security applications, including access control, video surveillance, and ALPR within a unified, intuitive user interface. Because it is built on an open-platform with a robust software developers’ kit (SDK), Security Center can also integrate third party security software, hardware, and business systems for a totally extensible, unified IP-physical security management solution.

Albert Ryu, President and Chief Operating Officer at IDIS, said, “We are delighted to announce that IDIS and Genetec are working more closely to bring innovative surveillance solutions to market. In an increasingly complex security landscape, organizations across all sectors, whether large or small, need proven, powerful systems to tackle the myriad of security and operational challenges they face. Combining high-performance IDIS cameras with the innovative, unified VMS solutions from Genetec, our customers will benefit from minimized risk, optimized efficiency, and improved performance of their security and surveillance operations.”

  • 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.
