  • Jun 01, 2015

MicroPower Technologies Inc., a provider of surveillance solutions optimized for rapid, cost-effective deployment, has embarked on a strategic alliance with TEW Plus, a U.K.-based telecommunications and security technology provider serving the transportation and commercial sectors.

The relationship with TEW Plus expands the geographic reach of the MicroPower SOLVEIL integrated solar, wireless surveillance platform into the European market, specifically the United Kingdom. SOLVEIL is well positioned to extend surveillance protection to the transportation and critical infrastructure sectors, including rail and utility services that are often located in remote areas or challenging outdoor perimeter environments. SOLVEIL delivers cost-effective, quick installation for organizations focused on mitigating security threats across their entire infrastructure while also tapping into the benefits of video to optimize operations.

“TEW Plus is excited about the opportunity to offer to our customer base a comprehensive security solution with SOLVEIL HD,” said Dave Farman, director, TEW Plus. “MicroPower’s unique technology delivers significant benefits to our customers through its ease of installation, sustainable features and significant return-on-investment from cost savings on energy and installation.”

The SOLVEIL surveillance platform is an integrated, highly reliable megapixel solution that delivers high-resolution video coverage in perimeter and outdoor environments. SOLVEIL offers 720p megapixel resolution for detailed image capture and has a configurable frame rate of up to 15 fps. Its wireless design minimizes deployment time, reduces installation complexity and limits business disruption because there is no need for trenching. SOLVEIL also complies with global unlicensed open radio frequencies for reliable operation in a wide array of geographic areas.

“TEW Plus demonstrates unique capabilities that make it a well-chosen collaborator for our global strategy,” said Dave Tynan, vice president of Global Marketing and Sales. “The success of SOLVEIL depends not only on innovation and quality, but the expertise of our valued resellers. TEW Plus provides a high-level of technical expertise and support to its customers, it clearly understands the value wireless technology brings to its target markets, and is enthused to have the opportunity to bring SOLVEIL to its customer base.”

SOLVEIL is sold as a bundled solution, easily integrates with existing surveillance infrastructure, and is compatible with today’s leading video and security management platforms. Its proprietary wireless protocol ensures secure data transmission is maintained in the event of network interruption.

  • 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.
