Updates to KeyWatcher Touch for 2018 include a new database design, a desktop fingerprint reader that allows users to enroll fingerprints through TrueTouch software, and the ability to utilize multiple KeyWatcher Touch server instances with a single SQL database.

The AssetWatcher is Morse Watchmans flexible, scalable, and highly capable RFID-enabled locker system. Perfect for tools, mobile devices and other valuable items, it can easily support more than 10,000 users on a single system and is configurable in three usage modes for flexible usage. AssetWatcher's RFID technology allows you to easily track who is removing or replacing an asset, as well as when and where in the system the asset has been taken from or placed. Proven features of KeyWatcher, including email notifications, multi-site operation, and multi-user capability, bring the highest levels of security and capability to AssetWatcher.

"We've identified the key management features our customers rely on most and applied them to asset management for AssetWatcher," said Mr. Pires. "We're also continually evolving and enhancing the capabilities of our KeyWatcher system based on our experience and feedback from the industry, and we are excited to show these products here at GSX."

    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.

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.
