OnSSI Displays Latest Version Of Ocularis PSIM Platform

The latest version of the Ocularis IP video-centric PSI platform was displayed by On-Net Surveillance Systems Inc. (OnSSI) at ISC West.

Ocularis provides the ability to integrate and control information from multiple physical security applications technologies empowering users to more efficiently coordinate and manage overall security operations.

On display at ISC West are Ocularis DS for multi-site, multi-server large enterprise environments, and Ocularis ES designed to reduce the complexity of managing edge devices, hardware, networking and user rights with a centralized, system-wide management application.

The IP video software supplier is also featuring details of how an early adopter of Ocularis DS -- Purdue University in Lafayette, Ind., -- is implementing the system to transform existing surveillance technology into a unified, campus-wide networked system that delivers enhanced functionality and improved ROI for the user.

“Ocularis has the power to harness information from the most advanced physical security application into a unified, user-intuitive system that can transform how security departments are managed,” said Gadi Piran, president and chief technology officer with OnSSI.

OnSSI also announced several personnel additions to its staff at ISC West to accommodate the company’s continued growth.

Designed for ease of use, Ocularis features a touch screen-enabled interface complete with map-based navigation, instant access to every camera in any combination, powerful investigation tools and multi-operator, multi-site versatility. Also enhancing the user experience are interaction-based controls, instantaneous investigation in live monitoring mode and one-touch push-live-video alerts between users. Ocularis DS and ES, with Ocularis Client Software, can be deployed at the desktop or in control rooms with video walls.

  • 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.
