Milestone Systems, Arecont Vision, Pivot3 Teaming Up For Technology Road Show

Milestone Systems is teaming up with alliance partners Arecont Vision and Pivot3 for a traveling Technology Road Show to be held across the country this year. Arecont Vision is a manufacturer of megapixel cameras and Pivot3 produces storage solutions for optimal surveillance systems.

The theme of the Technology Road Show will be a ‘Complete IP Solution’ with VMS, hardware and storage as the three components. The seminars will be carried out in a ‘Lunch & Learn’ format with the integrated solution from Arecont Vision, Milestone and Pivot3 demonstrated at the venues after presentations by each and an interactive roundtable discussion.

The advantages of open platform IP video include the ability for partners and customers to build the best security solutions for their specific needs over time. Many professionals in the industry are looking for more information about the latest offerings, tips and tricks for getting the most for their investment. The Technology Road Show will demonstrate how Arecont Vision, Milestone and Pivot3 can address these requirements.

“With this road show, Milestone continues to demonstrate the value of our open platform IP video through the ability to integrate with a choice of best-of-breed providers,” said Eric Fullerton, CSMO of Milestone Systems. “Arecont Vision megapixel cameras offer more efficient coverage of wider areas with sharp image details and Pivot3 storage solutions are optimized for high volume video data installations. This is a ‘terrific triad’ with the XProtect video management software at the core."

“Arecont Vision is actively ramping up our industry education initiatives in 2010, and these road shows are a tremendous opportunity for end users to get hands-on experience with our megapixel cameras integrated with industry leading VMS and storage solutions in a complete IP video surveillance configuration,” said Raul Calderon, vice president of marketing for Arecont Vision. “By partnering with Milestone and Pivot3 for these events, Arecont Vision will showcase how seamlessly our megapixel cameras can be integrated into mainstream video surveillance applications. We believe it’s an educational experience that will prove to be invaluable for all who attend.”

“Customers are the ultimate winners when industry leaders work together to prove out the value, simplicity and interoperability of open-systems solutions,” said Lee Caswell, founder and CMO of Pivot3.

The Technology Road Show will be held in Seattle on February 24; Los Angeles on March 4; Houston on March 17; Chicago on April 21; Atlanta on May 19; and New York on June 9.

  • The Evolution of IP Camera Intelligence

    As the 30th anniversary of the IP camera approaches in 2026, it is worth reflecting on how far we have come. The first network camera, launched in 1996, delivered one frame every 17 seconds—not impressive by today’s standards, but groundbreaking at the time. It did something that no analog system could: transmit video over a standard IP network. Read Now

  • 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.
