OnSSI Selected for Video Management Solution

  • Jan 29, 2013

Player’s Casino in Ventura, California has recently enhanced and expanded its video surveillance and security system, selecting OnSSI’s Ocularis platform, including Ocularis-X server software for operational control. The upgraded system designed and installed by Customized Contractor Services, Inc. (CCS) of Fullerton, California, features a combination of analog and megapixel cameras, high-density encoders, wireless capability and a network infrastructure overhaul.

According to Ryan Gleason, Project Manager of CCS, OnSSI’s Ocularis was the preferred solution because of the system’s ease-of-use and feature-rich capabilities. He said, “No other system we looked at compared. Among other advantages, Ocularis allowed us to merge control of analog cameras with the new megapixel cameras onto a single, intuitive interface for easy operation. It also made training easier. In terms of operational effectiveness, remote surveillance, enabled by Ocularis-X, is delivering exactly what the customer envisioned.”

OnSSI's Ocularis platform manages video feeds from virtually an unlimited number of cameras with immediate access to live views and recorded video via an intuitive user interface. It supports multiple-network operation, both wired and wireless, which allows end users to extend the reach of their systems. Ocularis includes a complete video management system (VMS) for streaming, recording and managing an unlimited number of cameras as well as dual streaming capability for improved hardware utilization.

Ocularis-X utilizes high-definition, interactive streaming (HDIS) technology to allow high-quality, full frame rate delivery of multiple cameras to mobile or web clients with complete interaction with camera controls.

“Security management has a much greater control of the system when all aspects are tied together under the Ocularis platform,” said Gadi Piran, president and CTO of OnSSI. “It puts this casino at the technology forefront for security control and flexibility.”

  • 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.
