SAMSUNG | GVI Security Previews A1 Video Chip

  • Apr 01, 2009

SAMSUNG | GVI Security is previewing some of the new products that incorporate the new Samsung Electronics A1 video chip at ISC West. The new chip provides a host of new benefits for security surveillance products and systems that will be available in the near future.

The forthcoming products will be on preview at the SAMSUNG | GVI Security booth 1204.

“This is an extremely significant product enhancement, not only for what the product does but for what it represents,” said Steve Walin, CEO. “It is proof positive that Samsung is investing in its existing customers, the ones that are buying today. Just because IP is the hot subject of the day, the fact is that 85 percent of all products bought today are analog. Although our own IP line continues to grow, both Samsung Electronics and GVI will not abandon our analog users. In fact, we look forward to bringing them new technologies such as this new A1 chip generation of analog video solutions.”

With the A1 chip, GVI will be able to offer an impressive, groundbreaking standard feature set. The A1 chip takes camera resolution to 600tVL. It offers WDR (wide dynamic range) and XDR (extended dynamic range) as a standard feature. In addition, the new chip provides On Screen Display on all cameras to support easy installation. For many, the most exciting inclusion will be that the new SAMSUNG | GVI Security analog camera line will have built in analytics for intelligent video.

GVI has also announced that it will be presented a 10-year anniversary appreciation award from Samsung Electronics in the media conference room of the Sands Convention Center at 9:30 a.m. Thursday just prior to the opening of the second day of ISC West.

Inrock Do, vice president of the VSS Business Team, Digital Media Business, Samsung Electronics will present the award to SAMSUNG | GVI Security’s Walin and COO Joe Restivo.

“It has been an honor to have Samsung Electronics as our engineering partner for the last 10 years,” Walin said. “Not only has Samsung Electronics worked with us on Americas-centric product development in the past but will continue to do so for the future. The new A1 video chip is sure to excite both our channel partners and their customers as the heart of forthcoming products that will provide increased ease of installation and ease of use while raising video surveillance industry standards. We’ve enjoyed the past 10 years and look forward to another 10 years and beyond.”
