Live From ISC West: Day 2

What a great show ISC West 2024 has been so far. The second day on Thursday was as busy or even more hectic than the first.

Remember to keep tabs on our Live From ISC West page for news and updates from the show floor at the Sands Expo, because there’s more news coming out than anyone could be expected to keep track of.

Our Live From sponsors—DoorKing, AtlasIED, Princeton Identity, LiftMaster, powered by myQ, and Hytera—kept the momentum from Day 1 going with packed tons of great action and demonstrations.

Here’s a recap of some of the action:

DoorKing (Booth 23015): DoorKing is well known for a wide variety of products including access control systems, vehicular gate operators, parking control products and vehicle barrier products. DoorKing’s Jac Whitmire provided the lowdown on the company’s 1625 Wedge Barrier System in this video.

AtlasIED (Booth 31061): The crowds at AtlasIED were taking a look at the company’s wide variety of products for education, businesses, and more. One of the line available to see is the IPX Series of IP-enabled solutions. The series can provide a wide variety of audible and visual announcements. See how it works here.

Princeton Identity (Booth 23004): The great eyeallow solution from Princeton Identity shows how far biometrics continues to improve for security applications. And the solution is also a low cost—usually something not associated with biometric technology. Princeton Identity offers a hardware as a service option where you can receive the reader hardware and software and just pay a monthly fee.

LiftMaster, powered by myQ (Booth 26060): Along with the myQ Community Cloud Based Platform and app, make sure to stop by the LiftMaster, powered by myQ booth to take a look at the TECHNA Barrier Gate Operators. Those offer better performance and versatility for applications like parking management and industrial security. Some of the features including DC brushless motors, a backup battery, and solar kit.

Both are built rugged to the MIL-STD- 810 G standard for shock and humidity, and are IP54 compliant for water and dust ingress. Each options is also compliant with the Digital Mobile Radio (DMR) industry standard. We’re headed into the home stretch and the final day of the great show.

  • 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.
