Sony Showcases Full Line of 4K Cameras at ISC West

At ISC West 2016, Sony Electronics is showcasing its latest 4K cameras and technologies for the security and surveillance industry, including the UMC-S3C and SNC-VB770 cameras, as well as a recorder and software system that supports the company's newest 4K technologies.

Sony is displaying its lightweight UMC-S3C, currently the company's most compact 4K camera. It has mounting points on the camera body that enhance mobility, allowing users to easily attach it to moving objects. Users can control the UMC-S3C via a micro USB interface, such as a remote control or compatible software.

Live demonstrations of the SNC-VB770 4K network camera will show how it delivers the greatest light sensitivity in its class. Its sensor captures more light with low noise than conventional camera sensors, resulting in drastic improvements in sensitivity. The result is low-light performance in nearly pitch-black environments, beyond the capabilities of human eyes.

Sony is also showcasing its new Network Video Management System, giving professionals a customizable and flexible solution for managing, storing and analyzing video content. The system features a combination of network video recorders (NVR) and server-based video management software capable of supporting a variety of network camera formats, including 4K.

"The new cameras and the Network Video Management System all strengthen Sony's 4K leadership position by offering broader 4K technologies to customers with varying needs and budgets," said Atsushi Seki, Director, Business Development at Sony Electronics. "These products – and everything else visitors will see at the booth – showcase Sony's dedication to the security and surveillance market and our desire to deliver consistently superior image quality."

Visitors to Sony's ISC West 2016 exhibit will also see:

Sony's entire line of network cameras, including its X-Series of small mini domes, bullet cameras, 360-degree solutions and megapixel technology.

Sony's edge storage solution, which is available on many Sony cameras.

Sony's intelligent coding and intelligent cropping features that improve bandwidth and storage efficiency in 4K deployments.

"Sony is constantly innovating so that all our IP cameras delivers exceptional video quality," said Seki. "Our theme for ISC West this year is 'See Everything, Miss Nothing,' which reflects our goal of providing the security industry with the best possible image quality, even in the harshest of lighting conditions."

  • 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. Human error remains a significant factor in cybersecurity breaches, making it imperative for organizations to address human risk effectively. As a result, security awareness training (SAT) has emerged as a cornerstone in this endeavor because it offers a multifaceted approach to managing human risk. Read Now

  • 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.

  • A8V MIND

    A8V MIND

    Hexagon’s Geosystems presents a portable version of its Accur8vision detection system. A rugged all-in-one solution, the A8V MIND (Mobile Intrusion Detection) is designed to provide flexible protection of critical outdoor infrastructure and objects. Hexagon’s Accur8vision is a volumetric detection system that employs LiDAR technology to safeguard entire areas. Whenever it detects movement in a specified zone, it automatically differentiates a threat from a nonthreat, and immediately notifies security staff if necessary. Person detection is carried out within a radius of 80 meters from this device. Connected remotely via a portable computer device, it enables remote surveillance and does not depend on security staff patrolling the area. 3
