Live from ISC West: Pre-Show Preview

It’s hard to believe, but ISC West 2024 is almost here.

This year’s show will take place April 9-12 at the Venetian Expo in Las Vegas, Nevada. The Campus Security & Life Safety and Security Today staff will be on hand to provide live updates about the security industry’s latest innovations, trends, and products. Whether you’re attending the show or keeping tabs on it from afar, we’ve got you covered. Make sure to follow the Live from ISC West 2024 page for photos, videos, interviews, product demonstrations, announcements, commentary, and more from the heart of the show floor!

For this year’s Live From program, we’re proud to partner with five sponsors: Hytera, Princeton Identity, AtlasIED, DoorKing, and LiftMaster.

Each of these companies is coming to Las Vegas ready to make a mark, and we’re happy to help them broadcast their achievements to the industry at large. Below is a preview of each vendor and what they’re bringing to the show.

Hytera (Booth 20099): Hytera will be quite busy at ISC West 2024 with both a trio of new products and a number of presentations on the show floor. One of the new products is the HR652 compact DMR repeater. Measuring less than 7 inches tall and a little more than 4 pounds in weight, it can be installed on any flat surface with limited wall space. You can use it to expand radio range with consistent, reliable, and seamless voice data and communication.

Princeton Identity (Booth 23004): Security identity authentication provider Princeton Identity will be at the show highlighting its powerful new EyeAllow. While the company is known for its biometric offerings, EyeAllow supports a broad range of ways to authenticate an ID. Those include iris and face biometrics, RFID cards, high-frequency smart cards, mobile credentials, biometrics-on-cards, and PIN codes.

AtlasIED (Booth 31061): While AtlasIED will be making news at the show, earlier this year the company announced a partnership with the National Systems Contractors Association and PASS to create the Ivey's Everyday Heroes Program. The program’s mission is to provide financial support for individuals in U.S. schools who have selflessly acted in way to keep others safe during an emergency situations.

AtlasIED president Johnathan Ivey continues to stress the importance of creating solutions that enhance school safety:

“Children should not feel fear or threatened when at school. Schools are supposed to be a safe place. But over the past decades, school violence has increased and it’s unacceptable. The technology that we developed, first under my father’s guidance and now under mine,” Ivey says, “is just a small contribution to help reduce active lethal threats in schools. Ivey’s Everyday Heroes, developed in memory of my father, Loyd Ivey, is designed to help recognize students, staff, and educators who have exhibited heroic and selfless acts to keep others safe.”

DoorKing (Booth 23015): DoorKing provides access control systems, vehicular gate operators, parking control products and vehicle barrier products. The company will be busy at its booth showcasing a number products including the 1625 Wedge Barrier System. The ASTM F2656-20 Certified system can stop 5,000-pound vehicles at 30 mph to safeguard property and occupants.

LiftMaster, powered by myQ (Booth 26060): LiftMaster® is the leading brand of professionally installed Smart Access Solutions with an expansive line of commercial and residential products, designed to meet the needs of any property. Our cloud-based Smart Video Intercom systems, powered by myQ®, allow property managers to stay connected to what’s happening at a property through a single dashboard.

    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. 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.
