On the Fringe of Something Exciting

You already know there are great things in store at this year's ISC West in Las Vegas. Press releases are flying out of corporate offices announcing new and tuned up security solutions.

I'm going to mention a few to whet your appetite for the tradeshow.

Orion Entrance Control:
OBSG-WAVE Turnstile — This Optical Barrier Swing Glass turnstile integrated with the Safran MorphoWAVE biometric reader. The OBSG-WAVE is a beautiful turnstile that captures fingerprints in just one contactless movement or "wave." The turnstile yields one person per second; perfect for high traffic lobby security.

"We're excited to share our latest turnstiles including integrations with Safran Morpho, IBC, and Blue Line Technology as well as our Infinity Remote Lane Control Software technology," said Orion ECI President and Founder Steve Caroselli.

3xLogic:
VIGIL V250 Hybrid NVR<\n>The VIGIL V250 Hybrid is a 2U chassis hybrid NVR with an 8-port POE switch and 16 analog looping inputs. This NVR comes standard with a 2TB hard drive, and VIGIL Server and Client software. This new NVR provides the perfect replacement solution for aging analog systems.

Sony:
SNC—VB770 is Sony's newest 4K network camera, model SNC-VB770, offers the highest sensitivity in its class - under 0.004lx, expandable to ISO 100-409600. The new model combines ultra-high sensitivity with 4K resolution and advanced networking capabilities to give video professionals more flexibility to capture details even in extreme low-light conditions. The camera achieves high resolution and sensitivity, in addition to low noise due to its image processing and full-frame 35mm Exmor sensor.

Nortek Security & Control:
2GIG IP Video Solutions—complete with indoor and outdoor mini dome camera and indoor WiFi camera, as well as a feature-rich NVR for a range of new surveillance solutions for the security market. This suite of products offers a mobile app, at no extra cost, for remote viewing and playback of video on iOS and Android devices. "The line of 2GIG video products was designed to provide dealers with attractive and sleek-looking interior and exterior-grade cameras for residential customers seeking high-definition recording and playback, both at home and on-the-go," said Rob Halligan, group vice president of marketing, Nortek Security & Control.

There is more to see, I promise, and I can't wait to spend three days walking the show floor. I might need some new shoes.

  • Trends Keeping an Eye on Business Decisions

    Today, AI continues to transform the way data is used to make important business decisions. AI and the cloud together are redefining how video surveillance systems are being used to simulate human intelligence by combining data analysis, prediction, and process automation with minimal human intervention. Many organizations are upgrading their surveillance systems to reap the benefits of technologies like AI and cloud applications. Read Now

  • The Future is Happening Outside the Cloud

    For years, the cloud has captivated the physical security industry. And for good reason. Remote access, elastic scalability and simplified maintenance reshaped how we think about deploying and managing systems. But as the number of cameras grows and resolutions push from HD to 4K and beyond, the cloud’s limits are becoming unavoidable. Bandwidth bottlenecks. Latency lags. Rising storage costs. These are not abstract concerns. Read Now

  • The Impact of Convergence Between IT and Physical Security

    For years, the worlds of physical security and information technology (IT) remained separate. While they shared common goals and interests, they often worked in silos. Read Now

  • Unlocking Trustworthy AI: Building Transparency in Security Governance

    In situations where AI supports important security tasks like leading investigations and detecting threats and anomalies, transparency is essential. When an incident occurs, investigators must trace the logic behind each automated response to confirm its validity or spot errors. Demanding interpretable AI turns opaque “black boxes” into accountable partners that enhance, rather than compromise, organizational defense. Read Now

  • Seeking Innovative Solutions

    Denial, Anger, Bargaining, Depression and Acceptance. You may recognize these terms as the “5 Phases” of a grieving process, but they could easily describe the phases one goes through before adopting any new or emerging innovation or technology, especially in a highly risk-averse industry like security. However, the desire for convenience in all aspects of modern life is finally beginning to turn the tide from old school hardware as the go-to towards more user-friendly, yet still secure, door solutions.
