  • Mar 31, 2014

Allegion PLC, a global provider of security products and solutions, announced that in Booth 20031 at the ISC West Exposition, attendees will see how Allegion and members of the aptiQ Alliance Program have come together to create an ecosystem of applications that support aptiQ smart card technology. The Alliance consists of global companies that are using an open architecture smart card technology that extends the use of an access control card or near field communications (NFC)-enabled smart phone credential to an increasing number of applications. End users will learn how they can better leverage smart credentials to build out an increasing number of solutions available to them.

“In the aptiQ Alliance section of the Allegion booth, attendees will be able to view open architecture offerings from a wide range of companies that have created an ecosystem of adjacent solutions,” explained Allegion Director of Technology Alliances Diane Kehlenbeck. “All these companies provide vertical market product suites or manufacture ancillary products that can be bundled as part of an overall smart solution.”

  • 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.
